I have a problem. I often feel like the mad white serpent in that user icon of mine. It's because I have two groups in my flist, and I've realized they don't meet. I don't think there's one single person among you that belongs to both groups wholly. ailati and thestrawberry are the only ones that sort of blend those lines I think - do correct me if I'm wrong.

Good! :) Please do let me know what you think of it once you've read/are reading it. It doesn't matter if you hate it, some people do and I'm fine with that despite being such a fangirl. ;)

My testimony: I agree with her every word about Hobb. Once I got my hands on Assassin's Apprentice, there was no stopping before Fool's Fate!

For those who intend to read them in some other language than English: I've no idea whether the second trilogy, Liveship Traders, has been translated to your language (at least it's not available in Finnish). The story takes place in other parts of the same world and with different characters, whereas the third trilogy continues with the setting from the first one. It's possible to skip Liveship Traders, and still follow the plot in the third trilogy. However, I don't recommend that. The storyline in Liveship Traders is imo even more fascinating than in the 1st and 3rd trilogies, and there are some quite fascinating characters. I doubt that you can find an evil guy as complex and interesting anywhere in any genre of literature. I'd go as far as to say that it's the best one of the trilogies. Besides, you would miss a lot of lovely details and "whoa, I know what that's about"s in the third ( ... )

Enkä edes ollut! Ikinä ei ole jännittänyt niin kamalasti. Tosin telkkarista ei oikein havainnut sitä, että ääneni petti pariin kertaan, mutta viimeistään se, kun lopussa kättelin Ismo Apellia ihan älyttömän pitkään, paljastaa jännityksen. :D

Näytän ihan omituiselta ilman partaa.

No siis kyllähän sen näkee että sä vähän jännität, mutta keskityt silti ihan älyttömän tyynesti. Jos vertaa esim. niihin muihin, joitten naamasta näkyy onnistumiset ja epäonnistumiset. Itse onnistuit ilmeisesti pitämään fiilismittarin aika tasaisena?

kafkjdf i love this post, and YES. YES. YES. Too bad it's flocked or I'd send my flist this way ;)

Oh, and I tried DLing SC now, and yup, it worked! You just have to make up an American address but that's not difficult.

Ooh, you are too kind. :) I have unflocked this (well there was really no proper reason to lock it in the first place, it's just a habit.)

Woot! I guess I should pick my copy then as well. :)
