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."

Yay! In the last book, John was contemplating actually turning himself in to the police so he could stop hiding and have some sort of life with Vicky. Perhaps this book will take place after that. Off to look for spoilers! (I'm like that)

edit: hmm . . . back to Egypt. Is Peters done with the Emerson-Peabody's? I haven't been that interested in the post Ramses-Nefret-get-together books. Peters has gotten too enamored of Sethos.

Excellent quote, Corwood - thank you for sharing!

The Adjective Noun

I'm going to have to write a book just to name it this.

I can't recall the last of the Peabody books that I read. . . I think it was set during WWI - does that sound about right?

WWI is the era when Rameses and Nefret get their act together, and there are a few post-war books that cover their kids, some political intrigue, and I think the last one involves Tutankhamon's tomb.

I pre-ordered Knut's book today! *o/* Although the bookstore owner was confused because her online ordering thing said it wasn't coming out until June and yet I know he has hard copies now...

That Beckett dude can write a little.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

No kidding. He makes despair sound like the most sublime emotion people are capable of.
