Maybe a little too much gear porn in the above quoted scene as it distracts from the action, it's better done in the inventory scene. Definitely needs another pass for spelling and typos. I've got the other books from Jason that Peter has recommended and enjoyed them as well.<br /><br />EricWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10565011704967481508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-73352354857842170242022-06-25T21:40:36.624-05:002022-06-25T21:40:36.624-05:00Want moar, waiting for the next installment will b...Want moar, waiting for the next installment will be hell.<br /><br />I can't comment on weapons minutia but another small error (pg 544): the glass globule that is impossible to break until you snap the tail is a Prince Rupert drop.Rick Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04748076795783834112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-64113003875950623932022-06-25T21:39:59.789-05:002022-06-25T21:39:59.789-05:00Quite true.

A good “blade” steel might be 1095 steel, fe + 0.95% carbon. So steel is more “irony” than cast iron. Stainless steel is another story but I’ve rattled on enough. Just bought it for kindle.Tsgt Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12997121520056731808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-38380177167747684912022-06-25T08:44:51.873-05:002022-06-25T08:44:51.873-05:00It would appear that the combat vet wasn't pay...It would appear that the combat vet wasn't paying attention during pronoun training and may have misgendered the faerie.
