:tackle Welcome back! :D I love how this implies that the ONLY reason you read Wheel of Time is so you could play mafia. :rofl I mean, I know it was a factor. :p But still. :lol

Right?! Yeah, I felt the same way about Shara. :(

Lots and lots of notes for this last section of the book! :) Ch. 24 - Epilogue: Marasi thinks to herself that the Lord Ruler, like the use of hemalurgic spikes, was terrible, but also did a lot of vital good for humanity. She specifically mentions him going to save Allik’s people. However...

Yeah, that's definitely a possibility... Curious why he would also need to impale his eye with a spike. :blink That seems like something you'd try to avoid... But yeah, I forgot that Kelsier actually saw the Lord Ruler after he died. :scratch

Ch. 17-23: They’re lucky that Marasi happened to be experimenting with the cube when she did and they they stopped the carriage when they did. Otherwise, they would have likely run right into the Set's perimeter without being forewarned. Marasi notices that the engineers seem to be new to the...

Ch. 12-16: Kelesina calls the Elendel governor Wax’s ‘peasant governor’. Odd insult considering Elendel is pretty uncontested in being the biggest city in the basin… The mayor of Bilming is giving a speech at the party. That’s a long way to come for a dinner party! :shifty Steris finishes Wax’s...

Ch. 5-11: :joy Yay! Wax is recognizing Steris's awesome! Spook lived for a hundred years as Governor! :blink Now we find out that giraffes and lions live out in the Roughs. Ok, this time Wax even states that his steel bubble isn’t perfect and that he’s been caught several times while it was...

Yeah... I'm not a big fan of Wayne. He's a cool character and it's interesting to read his chapters sometimes, but things like his bullying Steris and his badgering of Ranette... I can't *like* him. He pisses me off too much. :|

My notes for Prologue - Ch. 4: In the prologue, after he kills Forch, Wax hears gunfire downstairs. Are the constables there? If so, how did they get there so far? Or is it the Terris who have guns for some reason? :scratch Also, I thought Wax’s Steel cloud trick wasn’t perfect. :scratch Like I...

Pretty! :joy

Congratulations, Kitan! You'll be fantastic. :)

Perfect! My page numbers may be a bit different from yours. I'm using my paperback copy: 8/10 - 8/16: Prologue - ch. 4 (94 pages) 8/17 - 8/23: ch. 5 - ch. 11 (102 pages) 8/24 - 8/30: ch. 12 - ch. 16 (78 pages) 8/31 - 9/6: ch. 17 - ch. 23 (125 pages) 9/7 - 9/13: ch. 24 - Epilogue (100 pages)

Do we want to parse out the chapters? I'd be happy to do it myself, if you'd like. :)

I already started Bands of Mourning. :lol I may post my notes here soon, even though we haven't 'officially' started yet. :p

Oh yes, I only posted the above quote because it was in the book we just read and didn't provide any additional context that could be considered spoilers. :) Sanderson novels are best experienced first-hand!

Yeah, I'd completely forgotten what they were, so had to look it up online.:bubble

:lol That's fair. Unfortunately, I don't have Shadows of Self on Kindle so I can't just search for it.... let's see if google will help me... Ok, found it! So it's just a casual reference to them, no description of what they are.

Were the Bands of Mourning mentioned in Shadows of Self? I feel like I've heard the name recently and I feel like they were mentioned briefly.... maybe at that party where all the relics were displayed? I remember coming across the term and forgetting what it meant, so going to the wiki to...

Bleeder decides to start a Steel battle with Wax. Not the best plan. :lol Yay! Wayne listens when Marasi tells him to shut up. :lol Maybe she can tell him to be nice to Steris. :| This confrontation on top of the bridge is my main memory of this book. When Wax was being contemplative earlier on...

Yeah!!! It's quite a reveal. It was fascinating rereading and seeing some of the little hints or references to that.
