First read: Deadhouse Gates. Book 2
The story continues to evolve and we have more instances of things happening in one chapter, then going to another plot line only to realize that plot line was part of the one previous... I love this manner of story telling! Duiker the historian, gets out of the tunnel with the team he is with.. the...

First read: Deadhouse Gates. Book 2
Reading time has been limited a bit. Fiddler, Apsolar, and Crokus have been with Mappo, Icarium, and Iskaral Pust. Pust seems to think Apsolar has could be a replacement Sha'ik... did I read that correctly? But she doesn't want anything to do with it. Crokus is ticked off about it and frankly I thin...

Switched up to Elton John - Madman across the Water. Fourth album from him and released in 1971. Filled with hits that are still relevant and played today. Possibly my favorite LP from him.

50% - Man things are heating up. The Historian is all over the place making witness to war. When I say war... I don't mean a battle.... I mean many battles... mages, old magic, the undead, Its madness.. which I guess war is anyway. Felisin, Heboric, and Baudin - were stuck on this boat of the damned...

Star Trek: Discovery
Episode 6 was good but not great.. at least to me. But there are exceptions in every series.... I just thought it seemed a bit too coincidental that Discovery shows up, just in time to save a race/planet from extinction and get the clue they needed from a tower that was put in place centuries earlie...

36% - Things are moving right along. Felisin, Heboric, and Baudin have left made their way across the desert. Its obvious that Beneth has not just gotten into Felisins pants but also into her head. Just as they are escaping she tells Baudin that Beneth is alive and to try to rescue him. He agrees an...

22% Things have accelerated a bit. Kalam ends up delivering the book of Apocalypse to Sha'ik. It didnt go quite as he planned as they were able to take him prisoner very quickly... . Leoman, the Captain of the Sha'iks body guard was the only one he was paying attention to but there was another very ...

Icarium and Mappo have been invited into this cave by a "High priest" who has a servant that is also a mule/donkey/horse... they are at his place and he seems very off and jumps from one topic to another. He has said multiple times "a life for a life" but no explanation so far. B...

Still only about 12% in. There was the red guard/red blades that killed people indiscriminately. The two girls left motherless during this were picked up by the pimp. Fiddler saved them and ended up with an audience with their Grandfather who is a Tano Spirit Walker, who could have read Fiddlers min...

Its going to be a while. You guys will be way ahead by the time I finish this book. Having read it before, you can skim over parts that I have to really pay attention to. Yes I could skim read it as well, but I don't want to finish them quickly just to try to keep up. Hopefully this week I will have...

So only about 7% or 8% into this book.. the pacing is different, but at least with this one I have more background so don't feel like I'm being thrown to the wolves right out of the gate. Good to be right back to the Bridgeburners!
Going after the Empress......well... lets see how that goes.

What Do You Think Today?
Cigarettes have been illegal to buy for anyone under a certain age for decades here in the US, along with alcohol and porn. I suspect it keeps some people from doing certain things but it certainly doesn't stop everyone. Of course the internet made porn readily available for anyone that knows how to...

Thanks all. I'm trying to navigate things I missed without spoling further books. I know that's a bitch when you have read them all.

I had to break off gaming. Too addictive for me. I have no telling how many RT hours in Everquest, everquest 2, and WoW. I can't go back... I might never get back.
