Saw a Release Date for Peace Talks, True or Just Another Rumor?

<< < (9/13) > >>

Dina:
Captain Grimm reminds me too much to Harry. So I instantly liked him but I've felt a strong déjà vu feeling. But, perhaps I am a woman, I loved the book since the beginning except because I HATED Gwen name (Gwendolyn Margaret Elizabeth Lancaster, Margaret Gwendolyn LeFay)

Rasins:
Maybe I'll start it again this weekend.

dspringer1:
The criticism I heard rings true.  It just tries to introduce too many complex characters and thus does not really do justice to any one of them.    The general argument is that Butcher should have either done this book with fewer characters -- or begin with smaller scale story to introduce well a number of the characters first and then bring the remaining characters in during the course of book 2 or 3.  Based on how diverse the characters are, I would have thought a split story in book 1 (like he did in the fury series) would have worked well. 

Dina:
Not true for me. The characters were, for me, the best part (even when I am not a fan of one particular character)

October 30, the day before Halloween, is a Tuesday. Fingers crossed.
