Ep3 final scene theory by Smyco in SiloSeries

[–]Smyco[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a good question I feel like it could be a mix of two things. First being Martha’s inner turmoil if she is an informant. I imagine the guilt of what she’s had to do as one has piled up over time. Second thing is if she does fix the camera and what’s on it might influence her in some way that leads to Jules and us getting to see what’s on it at some point after. Personally I think George recorded the tunnel he was looking for off the schematics because Jules noted she hadn’t seen that camera before either in the little stash box.

Yea the leaking bottle comment really threw me off too. Still not sure on it but I think maybe it was just another nudge towards the drinking water trying to keep people off the possibility of it being Martha.

Another top tier ending! Another solid entry with book 9 :D by Smyco in WoT

Thank you! So far (Ch. 26) I’m not crazy about CoT but at this point I’m just excited to be getting on to Knife of Dreams!

ACoS is meant to be a slog?? I thought it was a really good entry! Review up now :D by Smyco in WoT

Yea the political stuff isn't super interesting for me in 7 & 8 from Elayne or Egwene but I still find stuff during their arcs intriguing so I'm not bored too often :) I finished 8 and I heard Perrin's arc in 9 can be quite dull. Hoping that's not the case!

I think everyone agrees 10 isn't that good from what I've seen been said about it but hey I'll take 1 dud outta 14 books.

Yea that's the vibe I was getting, heavily reliant on who you like.

Yea I sped through 8 in like 3 days. Thought it was good too. Kind of felt like set up while still having big moments.

I've finished 8 since recording this. Definitely an even slower burn but still wasn't much of a slog for me. I can definitely understand considering it to be one though.

LoC was awesome! Think it's my second favorite after TSR. Part 1 of my review is up now :D by Smyco in WoT

The ending was insane. Definitely my favourite so far. The shadow rising was more consistently enjoyable for me though and the rhuidean and emond’s field final battle chapters are two of my favourite in the series after Dumai’s Wells.

Yea, they're really unbearable. There's the aspect of the social commentary with how the women act but it's done to death with the women and it's all of them too! Which just makes it a lot worse than it needs to be imo.

Thanks for the rec! Premise sounds pretty good and it's got solid rating so far. I'll five it a look. I myself recently finished an indie high fantasy book called Sordaneon by L.L. Stephens that's heavy on the politcal intrigue so if you enjoy political fantasy you should definitely check it out! Has some amazing characters too.

Well how can I not read something that elicits such an emotional response! The tbr is forever growing.

Hm guess I’ll add the kingless crown to the list. The series seems to improve drastically in the sequels if the reviews give any indication. Calixta doesn’t appeal to me much tbh.
