mmmm...turkey orgies.....Welcom Catherine, glad you finally decided to havwe a voice. I lurked for about 1 year before I felt comfortable enough to tell everyone else they were crazy! lol. Anyway, warmest of welcomes to you.

(Imaginary newbie rep, to you as well.)

Thank you Bent. "Malazanites" (is that correct?) seem to have much the same craziness as SCA members do and I hang around them too, Catherine

Hi everyone. It's nice to see all of you. If you need any help then let me know.
One thing you should be made aware of, for your satisfaction, is the Law of Blame.

Thank you kind people for words of welcome. Almost finished Toll the Hounds and wouldn't you know Amazon.ca just delivered Return of the Crimson Guard. So much reading so little time. By the way left over turkey (for sandwiches, soup, etc) is like these books - so much better the second, third time around. Catherine (also my SCA name - keeps it simple)

Hi, I'm new.

AND in your forceful innocence you all believe you're somewhat special. That you're better than the sinners of this world. Well you're not special. Not on my internet ;P

Hi folks, nice to be here. Very much looking forward to not having to avoid spoilers, just started Midnight Tides.
May just wait until I've read all the books twice before posting much. I get the feeling that many questions might be answered with "Keep going all will be revealed."

Helloes Tyrion. Reading the books once per eponymous forum you visit is all that's asked here. We'll set you right/shut you down as and when you make a mistake!

J/k, I've made loads of booboo's and to date, haven't had my ass handed to me in the book forums. Nice bunch here, mostly.

I joined two days ago

I'm 14, and I found The Bonehunters first. Yes, I was really, REALLY confused, I didn't even know what the heck they meant by "warren" and didn't even know why the hell Apsalar knew Kalam and Quick Ben, and I even thought she got possessed on the 5th book.

After two rereads of The Bonehunters, I decided I was a fan. And went on to Gardens of the Moon. Then Deadhouse Gates.

It's damned confusing. But then, you just needed to reread it, again, and again. Then you'll get it. xD I'm trying to get my paws on House of Chains now. My bookstore doesn't sell much SE. ;_;

Oh, yes, because I'm 14, so are my friends. And all of them just stop reading GotM at page 10 when I force them to. They got put off by the confusioness.

GRAWR ANYWAY

HELLO ALL.
