The God's War Discussion

Post by **Mr.Land** » Fri Jan 20, 2023 10:07 pm

I've read and thoroughly enjoyed The Killing God. One of Steve's best. I was a bit surprised that the community (to my knowledge) isn't discussing the latest book or series at all now that it's complete on KW. If anyone would like to share feedback or insights please respond.

Sorry I can't help. I haven't read any of them. I just wanted to tell you to stop with the excessive posting already!

Rest assured I will not post again. I've always appreciated the Community of Kevin's Watch. There are few places to discuss SRD's work and through the years I have enjoyed immersing myself in thoughtful discussions, albeit usually silently. Others seemed so well versed in Donaldson's imaginings that I felt more comfortable watching from the sidelines. Toe, the Great God's War is a stunning achievement that has only gotten better with each book. For Steve to produce a book of this quality so late in his career is no less than outstanding. This makes the indifference of the members of the forum so perplexing to me, and more than a little sad. I wish you all well.

Iâ€™m sure you know that Fist was joking Mr Land

Iâ€™m really enjoying it too but Iâ€™m only part way through the 2nd book (a reread) before moving to the Killing God. After that Iâ€™d be keen to discuss.

I hear you though - it is definitely a little sad that the discussions have died off. Still, Iâ€™ll be back to discuss - Iâ€™m a very slow reader so it might take a while.

I am 3/4 thru the TWI. Then I can start TKG.

Thanks for that comment Stevie G. I actually didn't know the comment was humorous. I'm afraid I took it to heart. Still hoping others in the community will eventually be able to discuss the new book and series now that it's complete.

I'm on Chapter 11. Slow going, because of life, but I am enjoying it. I still really like Estie as a character. Really like the name, too. SRD always had a good knack for fantasy names that weren't impossible to pronounce, like most fantasy authors.

If this was written by Robert Jordan, then Estie's name would have been Estivhrenmhie.

I actually finally wrapped this up a few days ago.
I don't know why I haven't posted about it yet ... just busy with other stuff I guess.
And I'm still pondering it all as well.

Oh! Sorry, Mr. Land!! Yes, I was thoroughly joking!

Teasing you because you've been here 19 years, and only 57 posts.
