aneonfoxtribute Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 Thats very interesting. Moiraine definitely seems like a character that is as important as the TR crew, and Elayne doesn't yet. But I mean, 14 book series. A lot can change from book 3 to book 10 I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aneonfoxtribute Posted July 6, 2020 Report Share Posted July 6, 2020 Spoiler I'm very surprised that the girls aren't more worried about reporting WHY they left and the fact that Liandrin sold them out, let alone running into Liandrin herself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aneonfoxtribute Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 The joke where Rand, Mat, and Perrin all think that the others are better with girls than they are started out pretty good. Now it's starting to become a bit overused. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revelryintheart Posted July 9, 2020 Report Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) Right now I'm reading A Fine and Pleasant Misery by Patrick F. McManus. It's a collection of funny, sarcastic stories about hunting, camping, and outdoor life. I would recommend it both to the most fanatical outdoorsman or the laziest couch potato.

Rushu42 Posted July 10, 2020 Report Share Posted July 10, 2020 I've just started reading Game of Thrones, so we'll see how that goes. The TV show seemed a bit gory for my liking, but so far (500 pages in to book 1) it looks really good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the wait for the final books could be a very long time, if they're ever finished. Just, if those are important to you before you get too invested. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aneonfoxtribute Posted July 14, 2020 Report Share Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) Finished Grave Peril's audiobook. Can I just say that I'm really sick of every female ally either not being in the book much (pretty much all the ones introduced per book except for Murphy and Susan) or doing stupid things and not listening to Dresden at all (Murphy and Susan). The one werewolf girl from the second book is the only one that is neither. I really hope that the next books have females that actually do things that aren't really stupid and just put them in danger for no reason Edited July 14, 2020 by aneonfoxtribute 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aneonfoxtribute Posted July 14, 2020 Report Share Posted July 14, 2020 Good, I hope it does. I'm enjoying the series, but man, does seeing these people make such massive mistakes for no little reason and not doing enough to bounce back from it (like Harry himself does, dude makes a lot.of mistakes but his aren't nearly as obvious and he always makes up for it) I can see getting old very quickly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiver Posted July 14, 2020 Report Share Posted July 14, 2020 Recently finished Arrows of the Queen by Mercedes Lackey, which I enjoyed; very different tone from a lot of fantasy that I'm more familiar with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aneonfoxtribute Posted July 15, 2020 Report Share Posted July 15, 2020 Oh boy, I am very excited. In Chapter 30 of The Dragon Reborn. Spoiler Mat just got supernatural luck.
