  • I haven’t finished this one yet, do we’ll see.

    I’m guessing you mean the first trilogy (apologies if I’m mistaken), as the First Law universe continues for 6 more books after that (plus a collection of short stories). After the Last Argument of Kings, there are 3 “stand alone” novels, which are the strongest, in my opinion, and then a second trilogy, which is excellent.

    I believe there are more books planned for that universe, but The Devils is separate. The others I haven’t read as they’re Young Adult, so they probably have cheerier endings.

    Were you to read on, you’d probably find some joy for characters you like, but I think unhappy endings outweigh the happy ones. Of course, I could be mistaken and you’ve read all 9, because the ending of the last can definitely be described as devastating too!






  • My orange cat had curled up next to my four year old kid this morning. The kid rolled over in his sleep, snuggled into the cat like a teddy, and he just accepted it.

    My other cat is the cat in the meme though, even though she is the one who chooses to sleep on top of me.











  • More pounds than sense.

    I’m fairly certain that’s New Street All Bar One in Birmingham. This is typical attire for tossers going out day drinking in Brum.

    Also, these guys just look British. The short guy couldn’t look more aggressively British if he was wearing the Union Jack and invading countries for their tea.

    Also, I’m not sure these clothes cost too many pounds - lots of polyester there. No shade - I don’t buy expensive clothes myself either.
