Here we have a bird wiggling his eyebrows, fixing his beak in an idiotic grin, and walking with great mincing steps, “with each pace the bird stretched his long neck this way, and scanning cautiously about himself in a ludicrous pantomime of stealth.”
I already thought this book was turning out cartoonish. Now it’s straight up Loony Tunes. It’s going to be a long 300 pages.

‘Miliana sat back in her chair and heaved a great bloodthirsty sigh.’
Can someone please help me differentiate a regular sigh from a bloodthirsty sigh? What does that sound like?
Also: “a giant snail on horseback’; how? How does that work?
Keep in mind, this is one of the BEST Forgotten Realms novels I’ve ready in quite some time.

This book forced me to look up “peppercorn rent” and I learned it’s a real thing. Hooray for learning! It doesn’t redeem the book but it’s something.

‘“I’m going to make you eat bricks of your own sun-dried urine!”’
How … you know what, never mind.

‘Meanwhile, inside the guard room, light spells blinked on and off like fireflies at a dance party for epileptic insects.”
The writing is this one is a bit much, often.

‘Watching the melee swirl past, Blade Captain Gilberto Ilégo leaned idly against a tavern door, breathed in the nocturnal airs, and heaved a contented sigh.’
This is at least the tenth time someone has “heaved a sigh” so far.
