Pretty good story. Main character is someone you want to really like, but can't really get there. The guy he spends most of the time in story with is the more likeable. The things that happened in story, if they happened on separate trips over time, ...more

Peter S. Beagle
“Great heroes need great sorrows and burdens, or half their greatness goes unnoticed. It is all part of the fairy tale.”
Peter S. Beagle, The Last Unicorn

Vladimir Nabokov
“Let all of life be an unfettered howl. Like the crowd greeting the gladiator. Don't stop to think, don't interrupt the scream, exhale, release life's rapture.”
Vladimir Nabokov

Bernard Malamud
“There comes a time in a man's life when to get where he has to go--if there are no doors or windows--he walks through a wall.”
Bernard Malamud

Robert Penn Warren
“The end of man is knowledge, but there is one thing he can't know. He can't know whether knowledge will save him or kill him. He will be killed, all right, but he can't know whether he is killed because of the knowledge which he has got or because of the knowledge which he hasn't got and which if he had it, would save him.”
Robert Penn Warren, All the King's Men

“Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.”

Just bought "Survival in Auschwitz". "The Drowned and the Saved" isnt available on kindle yet, unfortunately.

Leah Polcar It seems like you are on a Holocaust tear. May I suggest you read "Survival in Auschwitz" and (even more impressive) "The Drowned and The Saved" by Primo Levi? He was a truly remarkable author/scholar and his perspectives on life in the death camps, the structure of power, and how men can devise insidious systems to enslave people are brilliant. If you do give Levi a read, please let me know what you think.


message 3: by Todd

Todd Thanks for the friend invite, I've tried to get into the Malazan since I've pretty much read every other classic fantasy series. But I've just been stumbling my way through the book.

Yeah not sure what to think bout it, Im bout half way through, and love the story but King throwing in all those political opinions kinda irks me out of the story, wish he would of left em out.



Deborah Ledford Thank you for adding me as a friend here, Benjamin. Isn't Stephen King's newest a wild ride? Started reading today and cannot stop!
