Werthead Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Quote Wert, with US/UK TUC release near simultaneous apparently, any word on your receiving an ARC to review? May, probably. I should really start thinking about the fifth History of Earwa segment, bringing the history up to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is true ('right' as in for the purpose of being saved) It's not that 99% believe if they live the right way they'll be saved It's that 99% believe that their way is THE right way And they believe unquestioningly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyCharms Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 3 hours ago, Hello World said: Wasn't this book Evil is a Matter of Perspective supposed to come out in April? I can't find a specific date for some reason. Has anyone read it? It was supposed to be available on March 31st, I believe. But they pushed it back two weeks, so now the official release date is on April 14th. You can check that on the kickstarter update page. Still no options for buying on amazon or whatever, which is annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of those feel like foreshadowing of TUC. Whoops. I forgot about the very end of the damn book lol. Yeah, when you end your first trilogy on that note between those two characters, of course it's going to have some payoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope more ARCs get to reviewers this time, including yourself and Pat, obviously - and in a timely manner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calibandar Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Just read through the AMA, a few nice nuggets there, mostly just heightens the anticipation for TUC to an even more ridiculous degree. The Inchoroi....revealed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Seswatha Jordan Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Maybe, Ses gave them the Heron Spear? Its hinted at in one of the dreams that they never used it against the No-God. I know others have hypothesized that, but it seems likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My theory is that Ses had his own Wathi doll, just to add to the Akka and Seswatha parallels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though given Ses doctors the memories, Lokisnow makes for an even easier answer. Of course you're both wrong! It was shark repellent that he used! Skin spies have cartilage, not bone.

Well, all we get from that his him being tortured to find out where the Heron Spear is. Since they never found it, we presume Seswatha never told them where it was, so why would he release him? The options would seem to be: Seswatha comes up with a way to escape (unlikely, but not impossible, perhaps the same way Akka escapes). Someone rescues him (maybe Nau-Cayuti?). He tells Mek where the Spear is (or lies about it) and gets released (seems unlikely). He convinces Mek to switch sides (we know he does at least once, from his own saying) and so he lets Seswatha go. I think the last one is most probable, from everything we know.

Couldn't be Nau-Cayuti who rescued him; he was dead/missing before the Fall of Tryse. And if history is to be believed, Seswatha didn't know what happened to the HS after the Batlle of Eleneot Fields. Agree that Mek is the most likely candidate as savoir. Although I really like @redeagl's idea about using something like the Wathi doll! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gronzag Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Mekeritrig freeing Seswatha isn't my original theory. I read that somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
