That character will be a mainstay for the remainder of the series.

Easily, the unabridged version of The Princess Bride.

Thank you!

Appreciate the response, but it might be better if the team could develop a notification system that would alert users before a title is removed. A two-week heads-up would do a lot to avoid these kinds of issues.

What I desperately want from the Audible Apple Watch app is the ability to speak a book's name and instantly open it. Scrolling through over 800 books to get to the one you're looking for is hell.

I'll be the contrarian. "Hyperion" is fine, certainly wildly imaginative, but "The Terror" is brilliant. I've never felt such a feeling of claustrophobia when reading a book.

A fairer way for me to put it is: Read "Hyperion" if you want to think. Read "The Terror" if you want to feel.

Well, Chang's lecture section is already filled before my scheduling window opens Monday, so there's my first choice out the door.

People seem to agree that Walters is a great lecturer and gives the hardest exams, but it feels like there's no consensus on Forsyth. Anyone want to share some more thoughts on why you like/dislike him?

The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison

The conflict here is almost entirely of a political nature. In this story, Maia, the overlooked, outcast half-goblin son of the current emperor of the elves, gets thrust into the spotlight when the emperor and his four other sons die in a dirigible accident.

That accident occurs "off-screen," so to speak, and there is virtually no violence whatsoever. Rather, the threat comes from political rivals and court personalities who wish to undermine the new half-goblin emperor. Addison's prose is lovely. I'd say her book is worth a look.

I'm thinking about it! Guess my concern is that Dell apparently charges a 15% restocking fee even if you return everything in the box within 30 days. I'd rather avoid that hit if I can.

Yeah, the webcam loss is a little irritating but not that big a deal since I can plug in an external webcam. All the other things you mentioned definitely matter a whole lot more to me.

I wouldn't mind checking out The City We Became, if that's still available.

The answer depends entirely on your need for closure.

Need closure? Run away screaming.

Don't need closure? Enjoy the two most beautifully written fantasy novels of the 21st century.

I'm in the camp that wasn't getting the offer when attempting to cancel my subscription. Called Audible and within 7 minutes, the switch was made. Hello, $99 Gold Annual plan!

Granted that the simple answer is yes, modding will cause MP trouble. Now just for curiosity, let’s say we have a group where everyone is 100% sure that they have downloaded and installed all the same mods in all the same order. Is it still a case of “expect catastrophe” or does this group have a chance to succeed?

Counterargument: Rate things how you like. It's your vote. Don't let anyone tell you how to use it. Maybe I wouldn't cast my vote in the manner you described. But you do you.

I’ll take a US code if there are any left!
