The three Kaul kids Lan, Hilo & Shae from grandpa Sen and 'cousin' Emery Andsen who is of mixed ancestory...

Two dumbasses try to jack a low level Green Bone and fail, but Hilo, second in command of the No Peak Clan senses trouble coming, especially with the disappearance of a black-market jade carver (dead) Three Finger Gee. Jade gives you super powers but only blood, training and clan make you a jade warrior.

P.G. as well as W.G. Though P.G. is certainly the MOST clueless, but not unintelligent at the same time. Just soft and naive...

Such a beautiful painful novel. Already know I'm gonna be re-reading this in the future. There is a lot to take in!

Lol last quote from 'The Son of the Wolf' at 17%

'Son of the Wolf' title story laying out situation for natives people versus wolves/whites. "'Those whom we take into our lodges live; those who will not come die. Zarinska is a comely maiden, full and strong, fit to become the mother of Wolves. Though I die, such shall she become; for my brothers are many, and they will follow the scent of my dogs.'""

Law of the Wolf: who kills one wolf, shall pay 10 of his people.

Trapped with insane driver on the way to a funeral - what the reader and audience are going thru.

'are we gonna get any comedy here tonight or not?' - comedy of pain and of anger and hatred and sorrow and betrayal...

'This is no longer a show. There is something here, and the audience is drawn to it...'

A night of horribly uncomfortable insult comedy. But what if it is insulting the worst shit imaginable?

Ruth begins to fade, to crack, to break under a life time of control and suppression. And also fucking Alan who I come to despise for his blandness as well. Idea would have been a wonderfully wrong name for a kid. Really mess them up interestingly.

Married life & pregnancy as alien.

Interesting how the Winged Monkeys both are and aren't nightmare fuel in the original version. They are slaves to the Witch and do terrible things and are grabby and mischeivious and just chaos in a disturbing way, but also have a back story that tells of their punishment and enslavement...

SIX Lillies! Now teleporting to the out of control city seed death star... Interesting sadness and age in this cat. Everyone in children or infants to it. Also an impressive amount of kindness and parental care for everybody. Truly a big dam hero cat(s). Also some serious thought to the imorality of creating AI life and enslaving it. NOT horror movie evil AI but terrible slavers enslaving the AI persons...

Dog is a great cat pillow. And the station isn't Lilly's home. It is a shelter that frustrates both her and her friends wishes...

If you are a carnivore a garden won't help you, right? Aren't cats carnivorus? And will doggo eat it all? Gotta puppy proof their satellite.

Imagine being 400 years old, alone and eating flavourless ration bars the whole time -- and you are a lonely uplifted cat too.

Glitter is jail breaked. Not surprising for a cat book this seems to be cosy sf.

Guess we gotta go BACK in time...

I went down to the crossroads...

This was a very good companion for me at the E.R. with my wife. Thank you, McGuire!

3 months in a cabin in the woods in Maine, what could go wrong?

All done except the alt epilogue and the excerpts. Which means I'm done right? The rest is chuff and distraction and the reason you need to jump your ebook to the end to find out where the REAL end of the book is. This one is 92%... though will still probably check out the rest that is tacked on at the end. Stupid book.

Big magic fest. But emotional/intellectual satisfaction?

Ali and Nahri trying to escape the cycle of violence,
neither Nahid or a Qahtani as king or queen. A council or committee? Prob a gathering of tribes rather than democracy I suspect...

Dara finds his relic and the Nahid crypt and Manizheh spills *some* beans about how she brought him back...
