calamity Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Alcatraz really does break everything he touches. He even breaks the laws of gravity in the third big picture, in his room with the social worker, where a sock is hanging off his dresser and should clearly fall. What a terrifying curse indeed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hafje Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'm still waiting for the day he really breaks Gravity to save himself (as was hinted in the third book). Now that I'm thinking about it, I love how much foreshadowing for later books there is in this series. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormgate he/him Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 He could break friendships. He could break relationships. He could break the Fourth Wall. I realize that he makes fun of the fact it is a book, but if someone in that situation broke the Fourth Wall... Wow. What if he breaks a dawn? Or breaks silence? Or breaks bad? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nazar he/him Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 He can certainly break some wind... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork he/him Posted March 6, 2016 Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 I wonder... can he Break Death Itself? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChickenPlague he/him Posted March 6, 2016 Report Share Posted March 6, 2016 I wonder... can he Break Death Itself? Judging by that gun in Shattered Lens that broke and started firing by itself, that would be a bad idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runyan Firetree Posted March 18, 2016 Report Share Posted March 18, 2016 I wonder... can he Break Death Itself? I think he could but maybe not directly. All talents seem to be derivatives of the breaking talent, and Grandpa Smedry's ability allowed him to arrive late to things including his own death. That being said, the first Alcatraz either couldn't prevent his death or chose not to, but had enough power to break time around his final resting place before dying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Adrian Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 You probably couldn't break death. To avoid death, you'd have to use the opposite of Breaking, Fixing Things. You could use that to resurrect the dead. Also if you were dying you could fix yourself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
