In Topic: Amazon's new Lord of the Rings TV series

I thought the finale was great! I am feeling much better about this series now that I was after Season 1. While I enjoyed season 1, it was more in a "there's potential here" kind of way, and now I think they have a good chance to live up to that potential. -

I agree with the above so far. I kind of feel like they should've left the Numenor drama until after the forging of the Rings, they could've shown them at their height of power then decline, whereas in the show it just seems to be in decline.
It is interesting enough that I want to keep watching to see if they can tie it up nicely over 5 seasons. There is some potential here, but its still not quite "there" yet.
ex. I'm not quite sure of the point of the Harfoot/Stranger storyline, it seems to be taking time away from Numenor and the Elves that they could really use. -
In Topic: Four new Black Company books?
18 April 2024 - 04:51 PM
Same on "Soldiers Live.." !!
Port of Shadows is really confusing. Seems to involve time travel shenanigans of some sort. I bought it when it came out in 2018 and just remember being confused. I have listened to the Audible version of the main series multiple times since then, but haven't re-read/listened to Port of Shadows.
I liked all the books, so I'm not sure about your quality comparisons, but I hope the above helps.

Black Gate has an interview with Glen Cook where he reveals he's already written three new BC books and is working on a fourth. He just needs someone interested in publishing them.

For several years now I have been working on A Pitiless Rain – or, The Orphan's Tale. It's a family Saga thing mainly revolving around the next generation kids from Glittering Stone, especially Soldiers Live. I have completed the first three volumes: Lies Weeping, They Cry, & Summer Grass. (I am) Halfway through Darkness Knows. My agent has had the first book for some time but I haven't heard anything yet. I will probably be writing on the day that I die. Seems to trump everything else, most days.
He's also got another Garret PI novel written (and unsold) and the plot for a second thought out.
Anyone else read "Soldiers Live" and immediately just continue with "and wonder why"?
I haven't read Port of Shadows. Is its quality of at least the lowest original BC books? I'm talking through the Glittering Plains for quality comparison.
