I think the reason we like angus is that SD wrote him to be liked. Theres a chapter from igensard, the special council's POV and I found myself automatically hating him. Why? Because he wants to be the next director of the UMCP? Angus was written much more sympathetically. Also I found it funny how ...

Back to the original topic, how do we know for certain that the actual amnion are deceptive? Maybe theyve just mutated a few humans who remember decptiveness and encorporated them into their 'decisiveness'?

The only real sci fi ive read is The Ender series and the Gap, and though I havent read enders game in ages Id put that one book above the gap series, though not all the rest of them.

Ive also read a short sci fi story by donaldson? soes that count?

I just finished reading the gap series- I read the first one like 6 months ago, but the others were on loan at the time so I didn't get the rest till a couple weeks ago. Then, since it was the school holidays and I could survive staying up till 1.30am, I read three in a week. Anyway, I just finished...

So the oath of peace limited their power because they controlled their passion, right? I remember on my second or 3rd reading being confused when Verement shetra mate(?) stayed behind at dooms retreat and took on the raver. He gave a pretty cool speech "Because you have killed Shetra my wife! B...

His power still is disproportionate, paradox or not, because the merewives aren't directly descended from the merewives! The story goes that Katty loved a human chick and taught her some things (we can assume she could possibly become powerful like, say, an old lord), then she got a bunch of abandon...

I voted for liking her but I would change it now after reading the gap series... sure linden saw alot of bad things, but morn went through a million times worse things and still wasn't all indesicive and insecure, at least not enough to kick alot of butt

Maybe foul hasn't even been replenished since the 2nd chrons. He might still be weakened, because he doesn't seem to be playing that great a part... but I doubt that. It probably takes power to summon people into the land.

This question is a bit more superficial than most asked on the watch, I think, but im interested in what everyone thinks. I don't think that we can just say that Vain would win becuase findail couldn't escape from him, because we have to remember that findail didn't want to partially damage him, jus...

I enjoyed the chrons more the second time as well. I think its because the first time I read them for like 5 hours straight, until 1.30 in the morning. Which was fun, but meant I missed alot too!

Ah yeah, that seems smart, I mean there were probably lots of landers who left the land when the sunbane happened.

Yeah it did, because covenant was out of the land. It was probably made by damelon as a tool which could channel any amount of power the lords could summon through it- in lord mhoram's victory mhoram mentions something along those lines. I dont quite know why every time covenant goes to the land it ...

I think that in this scene the moral poison of the venom has finally corrupted covenant enough that its started to corrupt the wild magic that he weilds. This is because its a moral poison, and because thomas covenant 'is the white gold' his 'moral state' affects how he articulates the power. This i...

hey, weren't all young landians killed off by the clave or mind controlled and sent against the heros at revelstone? It seems like the land had gone through a serious depopulation... from warwards of 20,000 to (perhaps) low 100s population of a generation. I assume the staff of law cant quick grow f...

I don't know how land people could survive immediately after the sunbane was healed. The last sunbane phase was a desert sun, I think, so theres no vegetation or water left. The wayhim were decimated, so theres not more than a couple rhysh left most likely, and while linden thought that animals prob...

I got my girlfriend earrings, and recorded my self playing guitar and singing the first bit of 'all I want for christmas is you'. I got a stuffed toy gorilla which is wearing a tie, which is pretty cool.
I asked for spiderman socks, but she couldn't find any. Ahhh well.

Anyone seen eragon? What a fantastic adapation of the book. Worth 10 academy awards any day. Ha ha.
Then again, the book isn't that great either...

I'll be 23. I only read the books this year, we had the original trilogy in one book lying around, but I could never get past the first half of LFB till this year. (Sorta like lotr) Glad that I did, cause now they're my favourite books.

Nothing like accurate quoting to win arguements!

My interpetation of the second chrons was that the arch of time wasn't in danger of being fused with venom until WGW when covenant fused the venom within himself. That was different to actaully fighting the banefire. Before that the arch of time was in danger from the size of the wild magic he wield...
