The Cripplied God/Kallor storyline happened on Jacuruku, not Korel.


Half true. It affected both Korelri and Jacuruku. The Crippled God was pulled down by an Empire on Korelri. They wanted to draw a gods power to defend themselves against the impending invasion by the Kallorian Empire.

The Crippled Gods fall destroyed Korelri.

Kallor destroyed Jacuruku.

The ancient crime.... could it be the anhilliation of the Trell and Toblakai of Korel ? It was mentioned as "ridiculous" in a intro text

And the scars bourne by us both,
are easily missed,

The Champion is obviously Ironbars. quote]


Why do you think Ironbars is Champion?


Also - so many ancient crimes to choose from...

Admittedly my memory is a bit faulty, but I do remember something about Iron Bars and the Crimson Guard being captured during the end of RCG. They were going to be taken to the Stormwall.

I think he meant the 99 pounds
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Bookdepository says only 167 days to go. Can I get an opinion about this company from someone? I've never used them, but I'm going to have to get into the import business for reading material, it seems.

I have nothing but positive expectations for this book, but I wanted to coin the term Stonewiener early anyway.

It's great, my #1 source for books these days. I've bought about 150 books from them without problems.
Amazon(UK) has been good to me as well regarding reliability and whatnot but their shipping rates makes it too expensive.

I was thinking the same thing. Who's got the inside track to the powers-that-be? Any mods able to put this up for consideration would be appreciated.Posted Image

Mildly NSFW but related
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.
