Venting about something random.
Aug. 18th, 2009 08:46 pmI'm ranting because I need to get my mind off stuff, and tomorrow. I'm tired and likely dragging my butt to bed though I should be washing dishes.
As I said in another entry, I finished reading Orca by Stephen Brust last night, which is another story of Vlad Taltos. Overall, I loved it and Athyra, and I liked the stories being told, for the first time, from outside of Vlad's point-of-view. I also loved the big bombshell dropped at the end of Orca, and I loved the way it made so many things from previous books click in my head. I literally went, "Aha! So that explains how X, Y, and Z could happen!" However, there is one thing that - had there not just been the totally awesome plot bomb dropped in the previous chapter - would have had me throwing the book against the wall.
( Dear Mr. Brust... [SPOILER warnings] )
