Huh. I just finished Sethra Lavode. I haven't read a book in one day since the last HP. This was much more worth it. I wasn't a big fan of the Phoenix Guards trilogy, but I found this one so much more engrossing I'm wondering if the first deserves a re-read.
What I did
not
expect was to be so touched.
"My conscience is dead."
indeed.
Has it been covered how
the line of the Phoenix was continued, with Zerika as the last one?
Is there something I should know about
Laszlo?
Does he figure into it?
And totally unconnected to this thread or any post therein--where and in relation to what did Hec utter--well, type-- your tagline?
I'm guessing it's something to do with old spirits from Scotland?
That was my guess too, Fay. But it's intriguing enough for me to try and track down the conversation. Given, of course, that it was most likely in a thread I seldom frequent, or far upstream in a thread where I've skipped, so I'd be unlikely to stumble across it on my own, and that it wasn't a private AIM or email conversation.

No, it was on the boards somewhere.
It involved Polter-Cow but I cannot remember which thread.

David, can you remember? I can't. It was definitely on this board, and I'm pretty sure it was in a thread I don't regularly frequent (which doesn't really narrow it down any, because I only read here and Bitches with any regularity).
Making a Skippy McSkipperson cameo appearance to recommend a wonderful book I just finished:
The Time Traveler's Wife
by Audrey Niffenegger. It was a wonderful read, and so unbelievably complex yet utterly readable. Bittersweet and beautiful and oddly funny. Quirky.
It's one of the most original and interesting books I've read in a very long time. You can find info and reviews about it here on Amazon.
Oh, another friend of mine just recced that to me, Kristin! I am intrigued and shall check it out.
I'm having far too much fun reading McSweeney's when I should be working: If Bukowski wrote children's books....
