(7:12:25 PM) Z0rPr1me has entered the room.
Z0rPr1me (7:12:33 PM): Hello
QueenSidhe (7:12:39 PM): Hiya Zor
QueenSidhe (7:12:47 PM): True.
KWM01 (7:12:52 PM): hi
Z0rPr1me (7:13:04 PM): Hows everybody?
KWM01 (7:13:10 PM): oh, picked up some snerks about Bahzell.:-D
QueenSidhe (7:13:11 PM): Pretty good
QueenSidhe (7:13:15 PM): Oooo!!
KWM01 (7:13:16 PM): ok
QueenSidhe (7:13:52 PM): Kinda wishing it was weekend all the time. ;)
Z0rPr1me (7:13:58 PM): lol
Z0rPr1me (7:14:09 PM): We all do!
Z0rPr1me (7:14:12 PM): :)
KWM01 (7:14:20 PM): true
KWM01 (7:14:31 PM): so true
KWM01 (7:15:00 PM): Bahzell's getting married, either this or next book
QueenSidhe (7:15:05 PM): So, did everyone have a chance to read the book?
KWM01 (7:15:15 PM): nope:-)
QueenSidhe (7:15:26 PM): Ah. I knew he was getting a gf, but not married!
Z0rPr1me (7:15:38 PM): yep. I'm currently in chapter 18
KWM01 (7:15:39 PM): guess who
QueenSidhe (7:15:49 PM): A warrior maid
KWM01 (7:15:55 PM): nope
QueenSidhe (7:16:03 PM): Really? Wow.
QueenSidhe (7:16:10 PM): The sword sister??
KWM01 (7:16:16 PM): nope
QueenSidhe (7:16:19 PM): Good.
KWM01 (7:16:26 PM): heheh
QueenSidhe (7:16:45 PM): I was thinking it might have been her at the very beginning of War God's but then what Weber said later convinced me not. :)
QueenSidhe (7:17:28 PM): Are you sure it's not some Sothoi maiden?
KWM01 (7:17:50 PM): it's the mage he saved in the first book
QueenSidhe (7:18:50 PM): The one who started the school?
KWM01 (7:18:55 PM): yup
QueenSidhe (7:19:31 PM): Wow. That's surprising. I could have sworn previous snerks had said a Sothoi maiden.
KWM01 (7:20:04 PM): maybe a rewrite
QueenSidhe (7:20:07 PM): And speaking of Bahzell and his universe, I kept confusing the two (Bahzell's universe and Garion's universe.) :P
QueenSidhe (7:20:11 PM): yeah
KWM01 (7:20:35 PM): is it that similar?
QueenSidhe (7:20:57 PM): Mainly Nadrak and Navahkian and the shady side of that society.
QueenSidhe (7:21:29 PM): Although, they both have a multiplicty if gids.
KWM01 (7:22:00 PM): what happen to O?:-)
QueenSidhe (7:22:08 PM): lol
QueenSidhe (7:22:19 PM): i o, they're interchangable. :)
KWM01 (7:22:48 PM): so Zor, what did you think of the story?
Z0rPr1me (7:23:09 PM): was good. Had trouble with the first part... too slow... but now its getting interesting
QueenSidhe (7:23:19 PM): Yeah.
Z0rPr1me (7:23:21 PM): Eddings knows how to make us buy the next book I guess!! :)
QueenSidhe (7:23:45 PM): I think the first time I read it, I might have skimmed through the first part. Especially since I hadn't started with the first book anyway. :)
Z0rPr1me (7:24:01 PM): heh
Z0rPr1me (7:24:19 PM): I gotta buy the next book.... hehe
Z0rPr1me (7:24:23 PM): Garion cool
Z0rPr1me (7:24:32 PM): Polgara... I hate now :)
KWM01 (7:24:50 PM): that tbr pile is going to kill you
KWM01 (7:25:13 PM): how big is it now Zor
Z0rPr1me (7:25:43 PM): Can't say too huge rofl
Z0rPr1me (7:26:15 PM): Hmmm damn I have TBR books everywhere!!!!
QueenSidhe (7:26:33 PM): lol.
QueenSidhe (7:26:46 PM): I need to get the rest so I can remember what happened. :)
QueenSidhe (7:26:53 PM): It's been years since I've read this series
QueenSidhe (7:27:45 PM): Do you think it would have been better if Eddings had moved the info he provided at the beginning of the book as he went along on the adventure?
Z0rPr1me (7:27:59 PM): yep
QueenSidhe (7:28:10 PM): But would it have been possible?
Z0rPr1me (7:28:19 PM): that first thing we have to read is too DENSE!!
Z0rPr1me (7:28:40 PM): I think it would have been... but I never wrote a book so.... :)
QueenSidhe (7:28:48 PM): :)
KWM01 (7:29:18 PM): What, you haven't tried?:-)
Z0rPr1me (7:29:36 PM): Too lazy... and too many books to read!
KWM01 (7:30:06 PM): :-)
QueenSidhe (7:30:45 PM): I'm not sure if it would be the same. How would you be able to show that Asharak has been watching Garion all his life?
QueenSidhe (7:31:09 PM): Maybe flashbacks?
KWM01 (7:31:29 PM): anecdotes?
QueenSidhe (7:32:05 PM): Mmm. Maybe.
KWM01 (7:32:07 PM): You know, the way you parents tell stories about you.
QueenSidhe (7:32:42 PM): Well, that wouldn't have worked for Asharak. No one but Garion knew about him and Garion was under compulsion not to tell anyone.
Z0rPr1me (7:32:46 PM): the prologue is damn too dense... too many stuff happens. Was that another series?
QueenSidhe (7:32:50 PM): But flashbacks would probably work.
QueenSidhe (7:32:57 PM): Nope.
QueenSidhe (7:33:08 PM): Just a history in brief of what had happened before
Z0rPr1me (7:33:19 PM): very brief
Z0rPr1me (7:33:22 PM): :)
QueenSidhe (7:33:24 PM): :)
Z0rPr1me (7:33:34 PM): I'll stop complaining... cuz its a good book anyway
QueenSidhe (7:33:41 PM): Jeff said there's a slightly different version in the beginning of each book.
Z0rPr1me (7:33:43 PM): I've read it in french btw
QueenSidhe (7:33:49 PM): Nice. :)
Z0rPr1me (7:33:54 PM): How Garion call Belgarath?
Z0rPr1me (7:34:01 PM): Sir Wolf?
QueenSidhe (7:34:07 PM): Mister Wolf or Grandfather
QueenSidhe (7:34:46 PM): What is it in French?
QueenSidhe (7:34:52 PM): Monsiuer?
QueenSidhe (7:34:59 PM): (however you spell it. :P)
Z0rPr1me (7:35:31 PM): Monsieur
Z0rPr1me (7:35:49 PM): but garion call Belgarath: sire Loup which is like Sir Wolf
Z0rPr1me (7:36:02 PM): Aunt Pol?
QueenSidhe (7:37:09 PM): Aunt Pol
Z0rPr1me (7:38:02 PM): was this the first series with belgarath? anyone know ?
QueenSidhe (7:38:38 PM): Yes, it's the first
QueenSidhe (7:39:02 PM): Later, Belgarath and Polgara's stories were written in 2 books with their names as title
QueenSidhe (7:39:04 PM): titles
Z0rPr1me (7:39:59 PM): okies. Just reading Jeff message. Looks like I will like the other books!!!
Z0rPr1me (7:40:04 PM): DAMN!!!!!!!!!!! rofl jk
QueenSidhe (7:40:35 PM): lol
KWM01 (7:40:41 PM): :-)
QueenSidhe (7:40:41 PM): They're pretty good.
KWM01 (7:41:09 PM): So did you write that journal of Worldcon, Vickie?
QueenSidhe (7:41:12 PM): some people think eddings gets a bit repetitive plot wise
QueenSidhe (7:41:21 PM): No. Too lazy. lol
QueenSidhe (7:41:25 PM): I'll get to it! lol
KWM01 (7:41:27 PM): :-)
Z0rPr1me (7:41:40 PM): wish I would have started earlier... another series to read
QueenSidhe (7:41:49 PM): lol
Z0rPr1me (7:41:53 PM): damn I read some pretty boring stuff in college I guess rofl
QueenSidhe (7:41:58 PM): still read the goodkind series?
QueenSidhe (7:42:21 PM): You needed to get online earlier. :)

QueenSidhe (7:46:08 PM): But then, I had a good book (ARC) with me!

QueenSidhe (7:47:54 PM): BTW, I still need to take the time to email Ringo. :P
QueenSidhe (7:48:23 PM): Gotta remember that. And maybe when I do, he might consider sending me an ARC of MttS
Z0rPr1me (7:48:31 PM): hehe
QueenSidhe (7:48:38 PM): ::crosses fingers::
QueenSidhe (7:48:45 PM): Gotta find some way to finangle that!
KWM01 (7:48:45 PM): God, If he brings that ARC to LosCon, I swear I'll mug him.
