Finished TCG at 03h00 this morning. :D Also forgot that Rudd was called "Elder" by the T'lann Imass, that he denied actually being an Elder God, and blamed it on his parents, whose identities we unfortunately never discover. Also was mentioned somewhere that he was Greymane's opposite numb...

Well, that was a wild ride...finished TCG at 03h00 this morning, because I couldn't put it down. These books, more than perhaps any other, definitely benefit from multiple reads...there's just too much to take it all in at once.

Anyway, on to Esslemont's Blood and Bone.

Ah, that sucks, sorry to hear man.

Well, all caught up, and still watching, although E07 was a bit meh...(Also, was suspicious of that dude from the start. )

I see Ghost of Tsushima has been released for PC...will get it once it's on sale.

--A

Never heard of it, but looks pretty good based on their claims...definitely added to my list...

Damn, I do love the Seguleh. (And that whole thing with Dassem Ultor and the 8th and the monastery...brilliant.)

Anyway, finished OST and busy on TCG now. I forgot that Gudd survived the short-tails...he and Bottle now making their way back to the remnants of the Bonehunters.

Actually finished OST in a few days, and am now busy on The Crippled God.

Yes, taxing them would certainly be more effective than eating them. Geese laying golden eggs etc. etc.

Hey Av, went down to Glendurgan the other day - over near Mawnan Smith. Indeed, when I stayed in Cornwall at that friend's place, the address was literally "Near Mawnan Smith." :D And yes, in that particular case, the "arrangement" was that the National Trust would take over the...

I'm referring to a... Ah, not familiar with that one. :D But I would still call it "pool" rather than "billiards." To me, billiards is 2 white cue balls, (1 of them "spotted") and 1 red ball, with points for cannon shots and pocketing balls. :D (When it comes to pool I...

LOL, have fallen a bit behind...not finished 4 yet.

I never finished watching it, not sure if the GF did. No particular reason, seemed really well done, just, if I want a Fallout story I'll play the game.

Started OST now, but damn, I may complain about the beginning of DoD, but the end is just damn good. Also, we got a "memory" scene from Ruthan Gudd that has him crawling from beneath the grounds of a dead Azath house! (Dunno which one, but definitely not Letheras because it was burning, an...

I mean, you're not wrong, and they're hard to spot in something so huge anyway, but, y'know, the pedant in me...

Orb, Sceptre, Throne, Esselmont, Malazan novel.

(Got a bit distracted these last couple weeks and spent more time gaming than reading. ) (Oh, to be able to do both...)

Ave Bossa nova, similis bossa seneca!

Tomorrow is the day and all, not that I think there's any real doubt about the almost entirely inevitable outcome...

You must have a sh*t ton of books by now, given the rate you read at and the passage of time since your recollection, if you keep them all? Yes Peter, yes I do. :D In fact, a shit-ton does not begin to describe it. (Several thousand the last time I made any attempt to count them.) :D I too should b...

What kind of "billiards"? (People often have vastly different games behind their use of the term...)
