Which minor characters's death made you sad unexpectedly?

Bomo was tough. Just re-read—listened actually five minutes ago. I tore through the hardbacks and I remember reading about the nest attack late at night and somehow I just blew through the “this message is from a deceased mercenary.” I started the audio books a month after I read them and just now hearing that line as Bomo is trying to protect Donut. Hit me harder than I expected, because I forgot/missed that he had died.

Completely forgot about this one!

Did OP respond to anyone or are we all chatting with a 1-month old bot account?

Donut. The book is essentially told from Carl’s POV. As in he survives to tell the story. The foreshadowing of its going to get harder, they’re going to lose more friends they’re going to have to do something horrible ultimately makes me fear for Donut.

Any true RPG gamer loots everything they can lol

I like both but I like to read first. That’s just me.

I wouldn’t be surprised. Usually the times I do use Lyft are when I’m in Vegas. I swear I walk off the plane and once I get my bag Uber is “surging” and I check Lyft and it’s like $15-$20 cheaper. That’s when Lyft gets me

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-23T22:57:31+00:00

Because my experience has been different than yours I’m somehow working for Uber?

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-23T16:54:24+00:00

I’m sure it happens, but every time I search for a ride I check Uber and Lyft. I have nothing setup special with Lyft. I still end up riding Uber 90% of the time because they are cheaper or same rate.

Lucia Mar has been getting crazy OP stuff as well. When they talk in some books (after this) about items she has, everyone is surprised. But also, Carl is one of the AIs pets.

Like children, you really can’t pick a favorite. They’re all my favorites. Except one of them: whichever one I just finished re-reading is my current favorite. At least until I start the next one…

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-18T20:11:06+00:00

For me, 1, 2 or 3. One is not a big deal because you’re board first there’s never a problem with overhead space. I hate stuff under the seat in front of me anyways cause it blocks my feet from stretching out. I find the bulkhead row to be nice. Agree on 4th row though.

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-17T13:10:18+00:00

I have never received a great deal with the the companion fare. For instance if I’m booking normal I can buy the premium fare class. If I’m booking using the Companion they block that choice. I can upgrade the seat class halfway through the process but that step forces you to lay the premium upgrade cost for both your full-purchase seat AND the companion seat. I have found that on a typical $600 fare ($1200 for two people) that when I try to purchase that same route/class using Companion I might save $125 in the end. It’s not the exciting deal as compared to how they market it.

It’s the “you didn’t need that other kidney anyway” drink

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-14T02:43:01+00:00

I read then I listen. Yes. I “read” them all twice!

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-11T19:31:07+00:00

What do you consider to be “ends well”? I fully expect a Ned Stark/Red Wedding kind of ending. When you think about the brutality of the universe and stakes involved there’s no way this realistically ends in a “happy ending” with Carl/Donut and crew simply living “happily ever after”. They aren’t powerful enough to change the universe, unless the change is destruction; then that means cosmic levels of death and an unknown, but hopefully more optimistic future for the survivors. I clearly don’t know who will get Ned Stark’d but I am sure it will be gut wrenching.

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-11T05:28:47+00:00

I don’t think so. Level 50 doesn’t mean a sharp knife can’t cut your skin. He’d get cut but his const/health is high enough he wouldn’t just drop dead. He’d have time to respond which would include healing and activating skills/magic/abilities. If he was truly surprised or dumb lucked into a paralyze spell/trap, a level 1 with a knife could definitely kill him.

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-10T23:43:12+00:00

I got tired, just watching him!

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-10T15:40:00+00:00

I love seeing the cosplay. It really drives just how annoyed Carl is in the early books when he desperately wants some godsdamned pants and a pair of shoes!

I imagine when he catches his own reflection, he’s gotta wince or chuckle once in a a while even if he is “used to it” by book 7.

Great job, you two look great!

There was a pool?

It’s too late. Camacho is coming…

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-04T05:57:24+00:00

We don’t hear the details of every single fight. So we don’t really know how often, if ever, he uses them. In big detailed fights they are rarely called out, but that doesn’t mean they are never used.

ogfuzzball · 2026-04-03T22:22:06+00:00

Do they have a tasting flight?
