It is an EXCELLENT BOOK!! Be warned, though, it will fuck your mind up. I still haven't read the sequel, but this book, it is so incredibly rewarding if you stick to it. And it's totally slash! Canon, even! I can't recommend it enough, seriously.

I am so happy you had fun!! It's still going, and it's awesome. Gives me a squishy warm feeling to see everyone making friends and getting along -- not unlike the first day of school! :D

The Vellum, where a fallen angel and a renegade devil are about to settle an age-old feud.

Why does this sound like Crowley/Aziraphale? *__*

It sounds like it, but really, it's nothing like Good Omens. It's bloody brilliant in its own right, though. :D

*waves* I got out my Eddings last night but I was too addicted to the meme to start it. I used to read so many books, but the last year or so its been mostly fic for me as well. I need to at least read a few more books myself.

lol, well, since you didn't reveal the world domination plans (oops) I'm okay with you letting the cat out of the bag on the book thing. ;)

I know! I'm excited too after reading the comments. Yay!

... Amazon has not shipped my book yet. But I ordered it last night. I do not understand this delay... patience, you say? What's that? :D

asdfjkasdjf Eddings! I wasn't a fan of the Elder Gods or whatever that series was called, it meandered too much, but the Belgariad and the Mallorean, oh baby, I could talk about them ALL DAY. <3 (I adored Silk and Velvet) I should dig my books out and reread...

HI NEW FRIEND HI

Yeah yeah yeah! I tried the Elenium series too and just couldn't get into it, but I have just returned from my local book dispensary with a shiny new OMNIBUS of the first three Belgariad novels :D MY PLANS TONIGHT ARE SET!

You should totes reread them! We could have a mini Avengers/Eddings fen bookclub and liveblog our squee :D

Hee! I adored Silk and Sadi the most, but I don't think there were any characters that I didn't love. Ce'Nedra's uncle? BAMF. Ce'Nedra herself, come to tht? BAMF! Poledra? OH HELL YEAH BAMF! Relg? Heee! I fucking loved Relg. And the Urgo king, Silk's brother whose name escapes me atm.

This is going to be so much fun :D

HI HI HI!

Those sound like awesome plans! :D Did you ever read the Redemption of Althalus? Not as good as the Belgariad etc but still really fun.

I am all for more squeeage, esp if the subject is Eddings! (or books in general!)

POLEDRA. I loved Poledra! What was the name of Relg's wife? Was it Relg's wife? The mother of the new race? Am I mixing everyone up?? D:

TAIBA! How caold I forget Taiba?? Her and Relg's arc was beautiful. *g*

You know where this ends, right? The lot of us are going to be writing Belgariad fic come Christmas. I SEE NO PROBLEMS WITH THAT

ETA - DAMN IT IPAD STOP RANDOMLY POSTING FOR ME

I wonder if there's any fusion possibilities? The adventures of farm boy Steve who's out to steal Lord Stark's heart, or something? Hmmmmmm
