:o >:( Words cannot...  I... >:(  Can I shoot you now?

I just thought of the  words to describe this idea.  HELL! NO!  Toot toot is WAY too cool for you to do that to him!

Is your problem with the actor himself, or with the most recent character he's played? I think if he were given a chance to play sometihng with more depth thana  piece of string he might actually enjoy the roll. you've got to remember that even the actor dislikes the character he plays.
I think that is awesome. And toot-toot is much manlier than edward. I'd love to see twilight fangirls/moms cry for him ;D

The Red king is about 4000 years old, making his birth/rebirth at around 3000 bc

Sure you don't mean 2000bc?

I'd say he is around 38 at the end of Turncoat.
For I thought he startet out at 29 or sth. like that.

Priscellie's timeline has Harry being born about 25 years before Storm Front. I thought he was older, too.

Yup.  "Blood Rites."

Just to clarify a touch. Yes and no. Harry finds out in Blood Rites, but Thomas had already known since before they met in Grave Peril.

Didn't Tavi have to go through a river, and over a forest to get to Garrison in the first book?

Aye, it was Rillwater. There's also a lake or two around there, too, lol

3. The Vord (Alera & Canea): www.musterpuffer.de/JB/codex/alera-vord.jpg

Not picking on your map here, because I love it. But isn't Aquitaine more of an easterly direction of Alera Imperia?

Actually, I had lots of mountains in one of my original Calderon Valley map, but we had a number of comments that said there were too many and that they were too high. I had the mountains both to the North, South and East. I left the West relatively open.

See? That's what I thought it'd be like. It's a Valley and mountain ranges make a more believable barrier then endless seas. The way that Alera/Martaia (Yes, I named it) touch like >< looks  alittle weird. Hogh mountain ranges were to be expected. They could be seen from Alera Imperia and are impassable.

Still doesn't sit right, that the Valley is surrounded by water but not mountains. Isana states that she had never swum in anything larger then a lake or a river, but according to the map Bernardholt/isanaholt is pretty close to the sea of ice, closer then it is to other holts. How come there are only a few mountains shown in the area.

DF Books / Re: Did you discover the books because of the TV Show?
« on: May 30, 2009, 09:26:11 PM »
No, never heard of the show until after i read Blood Rites, i'm from Australia and i never heard of such show and if it does exist here, it would be on cable.

Odd! I'm an Aussie, too, but it was completely reversed for me. I am a massive sci-fi fan so I tend to keep a lookout on the american airwaves for new shows so that I can actually see them. For example when firefly aired here it was at 2am. I almost missed it completely. So I cut Australian tv out of the drama and get my tv online from America.
My friend, who was the same as me, had read Storm Front before and had sent me a pdf version to read (I didn't for a few reasons) But yeah.. the tv show was easy to find, Dresden Files books I could only ever find online. Our book stores suck. (One even told me that one of the books was out of print and not being printed anymore, only a little after it's release)

So officially it was the TV show that interested me enough to go out and hunt down the books. And I had a cool image/voice in my head for Harry right from the start.

Totaly unrelated:
Just to note something down i saw while rereading AF before i forget it again: Mountains west of the Capital, mentioned during the party at Kalares townhouse.

That's something that bugs me a little with the maps. It's the Calderon Valley, so it should have mountains on almost every side of it, not the ocean to the south that gets shown.
