All my friends are doing fine, I’m the only one whose life is falling apart.

Diabolical.

The farther left I lean, the less tolerant I become.

I was honestly surprised by how much I enjoyed the series. Red Seas is definitely the weak link for me so far, but still good fun. I don’t think anything else will top Lies of Locke Lamora for me, though. That book got its hooks in me almost immediately and I couldn’t put down the series until I finished Republic.

I’m working my way through the Gentleman Bastard Sequence by Scott Lynch again. I’m about halfway thru Red Seas Under Red Skies and I’m looking forward to reading The Thorn of Emberlain. Also, I’ve been thinking about picking up the Coldfire series by C.S. Friedman.

Thought and prayers, mate.

Oh, thank goodness.

Maximum Derek!
