Read this several years ago and felt like I retained nothing. Wolfe has such a disarming style of writing that it feels like the words make more sense on the page than in my head. after reading the foreword I feel a lot less discouraged and aim to take my time on this reread and start piecing things together.

Severian still pisses me off but I think I will understand him a little more this time.

I was recommended this book a few years ago and never picked it up even though it sounded like all the stuff I like, and I’m kicking myself for not starting it earlier. Have been blitzing through it and now I have to go back to Indigo to buy more.

Snarky, funny, and quick paced - it seems like the first book will only cover the first 2 floors, maybe the 3rd. Hopefully that the pace / quality doesn’t fall off

The people be fuckin

Yea these people still suck. My boi John gonna tear this shit up

These people fucking suck. Ik they are literally conditioned to be like this but holy...

Ok not AS different from Bladerunner but I'm still early on. Interesting so far, curious to see how it pans out.

The concept of next to no live animals left on Earth is so depressing. I'm gonna go hang out with my cats

Case has to get his shit together. Russian nerve poisoning? Wat da hell

The world is very much alive, and the details help paint a picture, but omg this slang is killing me what the hell are they talking about

Already might be one of my favorites from Cosmere. Maybe because it's Hoid centric. Maybe because it's inspired by Hikaru no Go. Either way, Hoid is the current soulful white boy in a foreign land.

Wat da hell

I dont think I'm ready for this

Oh blyat, this picnic is no bueno

I hope they brought a blanket

Vasher is being an edgy dickhead whats he so angry about

Ok, the story is picking up. Lightsong is activated.

Lightsong seems like a chill guy. Can't wait for the impending heroic sacrifice later

Everyone is weird. Except Oshima, he's a chill guy

I don't like this book anymore >:(

Yo wat the hell are they doing to them kids
