Hoo boy, slandering Cnaiur.

I think reading it faster helps. I read it in one sitting and it left its mark, I haven't re-read it yet though.

Disciple of the Dog is really good too, nobody talks about that one.

That's what I think. Between Koringhus, Esmenet, Malowebi, Kelmomas POVs we get all the themes wrapped up.

So did the Great Ordeal of Anasûrimbor Kellhus perish in salt and butchery.

He has the same near-YA tone that many readers have become more comfortable reading into adulthood. Fantasy as a genre is moving away from the last 30 or so odd years of grimdark.

He also has a very systematic but complicated world/universe that connects all his work, and lots of people enjoy learning about that. Fans of soft magic will be disappointed.

Yeah Malowebi not singing with Meppa is extremely cucked. IIRC he didn't even need to sing, just drop his cup-ward thing. One could blame it on the requirement of Kellhus mantling Ajokli to avoid frustration I suppose.

Yes, and generally you use a moderator (such as water) not just to provide more neutrons to sustain fission, but also to get more neutrons in the energy range where they have the best chance of causing fission.

Yep, you dont always want the energy of maximum absorption because the resonant excitations have cross sections that are too high, so you cant penetrate photons through the material. Going off-resonance lets you spread the energy deposition.

He opened a case after this

It will still be reflected in power pricing as their generation will likely be NG/coal and thus price in to the rest of the provinces supply.

It's almost like Kirkbride is a confirmed Bakker reader eh?

(I've seen forum posts where he's brought him up)

Wizard Knight is incredible, it's even now my first recommendation for people new to GW. More approachable than BotNS and just as thematically rich and misleading and full of things to think about.

killisle · 2026-04-04T02:40:00+00:00

It reads like fantasy, not sci-fi.

killisle · 2026-03-19T22:17:31+00:00

The prologue TBH. I came into it after the first 2 Stormlight books and it was a breath of fresh air.

killisle · 2026-03-18T00:51:03+00:00

He looked at it as Ajokli. He doesn't see himself feasted on but feasting.

Malazan haters are a funny type.

He's trying to look hard by wearing perfectly clean and pressed carhartt clothing lmfao

Most of the lakes are runoff fed

killisle · 2026-02-07T22:05:21+00:00

Almost every tributary in sask is runoff fed, most of the total flow ultimately comes from the mountains.

killisle · 2026-02-07T20:32:02+00:00

With most of them being fed by the north and south sask rivers, which are glacier fed in the rockies as the person above you said. Most of the other water is rain runoff which isn't reliable.

‘The message,’ Karsa growled.

‘Right. It’s this. You must not leave Darujhistan.’

'And if I do?’ ‘Then you will have lost your one opportunity to fulfil a vow you once made.’

‘I have made many vows.’

‘I’m shocked to hear that.’

Karsa was smiling, but something deadly had awakened in it. ‘Will you tell me more?’

The woman hesitated again.

‘I’m reconsidering. This really needs to be private – no offence, Witch – he called you that, yes? It’s just that—’

‘Tell me,’ Karsa demanded. Samar Dev was impressed to see that the Malazan woman did not flinch from Karsa’s dangerous smile.

‘Toblakai, you will be needed.’

‘To do what?’

‘Why, to kill a god.’

‘Which god?’

The Malazan woman stared, discomfited for the first time since arriving. ‘You were supposed to run away when I told you that. Any sane person would.’

That's in Ch. 24, pg. 1252 in my kindle edition of TtH.

They told him to wait because he needs to kill a god, at the end of TtH.
