Looking for some new Sci/Fi or Fantasy novels.

[Bronn]

i'm about 2/3 of the way through it and it's fantastic... really loving the characters. just got to the point that Barsavi is marching his way to Echo Hole, so poo's about to get serious

i'm more than likely going to order the second book here shortly so i have it in hand when i'm done with the first

 

Glad to hear it!

Locke and Jean are an epic character duo...

AWWW !!! I didn't even think about that when I said it... hope I didn't spoil anything!!!

GAH!

My bad, man... But I know what you're feeling if you're at the point that I think you're at... lol

yeah man that was totally a GRRM moment, although it wasn't on as epic of a scale I don't think...

One thing is for sure... I am glad Karthain Bondsmagi aren't a real life thing...

[Crixtala]

fuging Amazon... they've got a good thing going with their $35+ orders = free shipping.  good for them anyway... not so much for me

 

just pre-ordered The Slow Regard of Silent Things and ordered Red Seas Under Red Skies, The Republic of Thieves, Hyperion and Wool.

[Bronn]

lol I am gonna try to get Rebublic of Thieves in the next week or so... I will probably just hit up a Barnes and Noble

 

I thought TSROST was already out?

I hope you like the Wool stuff... I really did.

 

I haven't read the Hyperion stuff though.

[Crixtala]

Amazon says TSRoST doesn't come out until 10/26 or 10/28... hopefully it's not that long, and now that I think about it, I hope Amazon doesn't hold the other books until that's out to ship them

 

wouldn't that be a bitch?  I just ordered RSURS because I've got less than 100 pages of Lies of Locke Lamora and then they hold on to it until TSRoST comes out... that would probably be my luck lol

[Bronn]

hah! I'm about 235 pages or so into RSURS now and it does not disappoint!

IIRC Amazon will ship it all as it is available, as long as you didn't choose the option to "ship order in as little shipments as possible" during checkout.

Also, I just read that I have been pronouncing Jean's name incorrectly. It's "zhean" like a French accent, not "jeen" like my backwoods Johnston County mental reading voice reads...Totally makes me stumble everytime I am reading it now. Trying to train myself to read it correctly lol.

[Bronn]

Also, you and I are pretty much dominating this thread now, lol.

you sonofabitch... now I'm going to get stuck every time I read his name

[Crixtala]

finished The Lies of Locke Lamora the other night... very solid ending. overall, this is one of my favorite books that i've read lately, easily

i should have the other two books by next Friday... can't wait to tear into them

[Bronn]

I got The Republic of Thieves this weekend. About 375 pages into Red Seas Under Red Skies now...

 

I'm glad you're digging the series, though! Tell all these other fools to get on board!
