gwynhefarBook #148 -- Ellen Kushner and Delia Sherman, The Fall of the Kings, 476 pages
This is the sequel to Swordspoint that I put off reading for so long because I didn't want to have to deal with a setting in which Alec and Richard were old and dead. And indeed, it was hard. I am *so* attached to those characters that the mention of them in past tense was difficult to deal with. And this was a somewhat more depressing book than Swordspoint as well. Although it was certainly very very good. There's a third book out now that I think will be easier, since Alec and Richard appear in it. And of course there's lots more that is hinted to in the backstories that I would love to see Ellen and/or Delia write about.
Progress toward goals: 352/365 = 96.4%
Books: 148/150 = 98.7%
Pages: 42347/50000 = 84.7%
