Dust of Dreams -- Chapter 1
"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"
―Gene Wolfe, The Citadel of the Autarch

^^^^^^^^ An SE reaction in Chapter 4 comments, re: depictions of empire.
They came with white hands and left with red hands.

Good stuff. (Duh.)

I wish we could average together the speeds of the ASoIaF and Malazan rereads. The former proceeds at a snail's pace (14 months on ASoS...really?), whereas I am incapable of keeping up with Bill and Amanda. Time to get my butt in gear and finish TTH already.
I'm George. George McFly. I'm your density. I mean...your destiny.

Dust of Dreams -- Chapter 14

In the note for this chapter is:

Quote

Note: In order to best allow for Steven’s participation in the discussion of Chapter 15 (we had to work out some timing issues), we will not be posting on Friday and will instead have two posts on Wednesday (the 26th). In the first, we will summarize and respond to Chapter 15 as usual. In the other (and only in that one please), we will deal specifically with the much-dreaded event that we all find so disturbing. We’d like to have that second discussion within a larger context as well—moving beyond the specific scene and particular character and into the use/portrayal of violence in this series and in the fantasy genre. How wide-ranging we get will depend on you, but we wanted to let you know so you can have some time to think about such a complex topic.


So the second post should have a really interesting discussion with SE involvement.
