Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The Diary of a Modest Widow

Probably a companion to The Diary of a Naughty Footman. I hope they crossover and give us some of the same events from different viewpoints

In case any of you are Elizabeth Peters completists - there's a not previously published Amelia Peabody story in the Nov/Dec Ellery Queen

The Princess of Heartache - that sounds like something I might have written as a teen

Was it in matter that someone mentioned the new Penric and Desdemona story? I enjoyed it but not as much as some of the others, it felt very brief and a bit confusing on the “why” theologically

I’m reading it right now (was it Natter? I forget) and will be ready to discuss soon.

Hm. Yeah. Death magic seems more complicated than I previously supposed. Theologically.

Trying to remember when we've seen it before, and I'm pretty sure we have but I can't remember in what story. Whether that would clarify anything I don't know.

I DO know I'm still in the market for a Penric/Paladin crossover. Or Chalion/St of Steel. Five gods and White Rat. Whatever. Someone get on that.

Yeah t, I understood the part where the mom wished the other guy dead And maybe even the part where her soul overtook his body?? But not the part where the little kid ghost took over hers? Like why? How was he involved??
