Promise of Blood

[-Deleted-]

It's currently one of my favorite books. Loved it, can't wait until the next. Which is soon!

Oh, so next week on the 10th, I should be going to a book signing of Brian McClellan, so since this is the thread for it, any of you have any questions you want me to ask him? Let the 17s invade other authors worlds with our detailed questions and analysis!

Some of the questions I have so far are:
What's the difference between snorting gunpowder and swallowing it? As Taniel and Tamas each consume in those two different ways.

What about gunpowder makes it not have an Aura in the Else? Is that what gives it it's properties to be used as it's own form of magic?
Is there anything else that doesn't have an Aura in the Else?

If a Privileged has to follow the "Kresimir's Promise" or whatever it's called (I'm re-reading the book now, I'll get a specific name for what I'm talking about), if they become a Magebreaker, would that break the bonds of the compulsion?

Hey, if I'm asking questions good enough for him to give a RAFO, then I'm doing something right.

[PorridgeBrick he/him]

That would be hilarious, since he only just learned about what a RAFO is when he was answering questions in an AMA.

And I think he'll at least answer #1, since it doesn't sound too spoilery.

For Pole's magic, do you have to use dolls? Could you draw someone quickly during a fight and use that?

Argh I know someone on Malazan Boards that has bk 2 already! I want it!
