Der der der der DA DA DA DA DA, Der DA DA DA, Der DA DA DA…
Because it took 30?
I like the word. It gives me confidence. Gorn … gorn. It’s got a sort of Woodville quality about it.
“Bride” is a bit of a tinny word, mind. Should probably have just titled the novel “Gorn”. Or perhaps “Caribou”.
Oh well … whole afternoon to kill … better have a bath I suppose.
Pretty much my motto in life
That could also be an interesting book ![]()
Finished Rhythm of War (Book 4). Onwards to the finale of the first arc.
I started Wind and Truth last night. The preface indicates that this is Sanderson’s longest novel so I think it’s going to take me a while to get through.
You are going to easily finish that before me.
I started in December oO. But it turns out that it crossed swords with AoC fighting for my attention and …lost.
Reviled? No, that would be the white ibis, commonly known as the bin chicken.
New house is now sufficiently unpacked and organised that I can share everything I read in March/April. Bit annoyed I now have to reshelve all these again …
Finished Wind and Truth - book 5 of The Stormlight Archive. Yes. It did felt like an “end of an era” so theres sone closure. But theres more unfinished business that you know are setup for Book 6 to 10.
Options:
I read Era 1 and 2 with a big gap in between. I’m tempted to re-read Era 1 given all that’s gone on in the other Cosmere novels.
Only about halfway through Wind and Truth though.
The new Joe Abercrombie, The Devils. The early scenes are set in a corrupt fantasy Rome, ruled by Her Holiness, the Pope. Reading this on the first day of a papal conclave added to its impact.
My copy should be waiting for me when I get home. I recently re-read his Age of Madness trilogy to whet my appetite for this new book.
Going to see him at a book event in Edinburgh on Saturday. He is an engaging speaker!
New Abercrombie? I’m sold! Dammit, have to wait til May to get it on Kindle
