Jerol Posted January 2 Author Share Posted January 2 For the first time in three years, Scott made a Tumblr post. For him, that's a tremendous surge in activity. With Twitter in a freefall, he's apparently renewing his other "online contact points". Can't say I blame him. https://www.tumblr.com/scottlynch78 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ser Scot A Ellison Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Okay. I’m in a re-read of RoT. If Patience’s claim about Locke is true… is Locke really this other person? Locke lacks his power. Locke lacks his knowledge. Locke lacks his memories. How can Locke be anyone but himself regardless of how he came to be? Discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanF Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 I was amused to walk down Piccadilly yesterday and see a coffee shop called “The Gentleman Barristas.” Ser Scot A Ellison, Myrddin, Rhom and 3 others 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanF Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Oh, and there used to be a solicitors’ firm in Luton called The First Law. I can’t imagine that either that of The Gentleman Barristas is a coincidence. I still can’t decide whether Fray Bentos/Frey Pies is a coincidence or not. Madame deVenoge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Would GRRM even have heard of Frey Bentos? They're not a thing in the US, I don't think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3CityApache Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 (edited) Again, like so many times before, I lurked in here with fluttering heart hoping there is some genuine news about the book, only to learn about Frey Bentos. What the hell is Frey Bentos? Edited March 7 by 3CityApache SeanF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polishgenius Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 The only time in my life I ever ate a Fray Bentos pie I threw up. Not from food poisoning, like immediately just from the taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ser Scot A Ellison Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Doing my yearly re-listen to LOLL. It is heartbreaking to read Locke’s confidence… his pride… his certainty… his arrogance at the GB’s skill. Lynch does such an amazing job of building up the reader’s trust in the GB’s skill and cleverness then pulls that confidence out from under the reader in the worst way possible. It’s part of what makes this book so amazing. I’ve read it plenty of times yet each time, knowing what’s coming, I’m screaming at them to run. Locke’s arrogance (necessary for his trade) is so terrible when it comes down on his friends. Quote Spoiler I’m really worried we’re going to lose Jean in the next book… I don’t see any news about ToE but I keep hoping.
