Schrödinger's Book: We want it now, but we want Ryk to take his time and get it right without killing his hands!
From facebook:
"I promise you all I am trying to get 2.10 out before the end of the month. Just had a lot of setbacks. Battling severe carpal-tunnel due to scrapping popcorn texture off of 2800 sqft of ceilings, and staying in a hotel while we get the house ready for occupancy. Hang tight all, Retaliation is coming!
Ryk"
Also from Facebook:
"Attention!! The last word of book 10 has been written! The release date for Retaliation will be tonight or tomorrow! Keep an eye out! Thank you all for your patience! I can tell you, you're going to love it!
- Jess"
Sweet!
well colour me excited!!!
it's up
Fin and Love it! Nathan is scary cool! Pritchett is a badass! The missile boats carry 16 missiles only??? seems light - then they go to work. very cool
An apology to all. There is an error in 2.10 that slipped past us. Actually, the real error occurred in 2.4, when I used "Siggy" for a character, after already using it in 2.1. (A different character.) In 2.10, the Siggy is the same Siggy as in 2.1. (The guy on Haven that hired Connor and the Seiiki.) In 2.10, the same Siggy appears (as in 2.1) but we accidentally gave him the same last name as the Siggy in 2.4. (A different character.)
We have been developing a wiki to prevent these types of errors, but it is not completely up to date yet. (Almost there.) This universe grew more complex than I ever imagined, and keeping track of every little thing is challenging. (I actually had to hire a series historian/wiki-keeper.)
Thanks to the guy that notified us of the error via FB.
Ryk
two people can have the same first name. just drop a one liner in the next book "I thought he was at X" , "No, You're thinking of another Siggy, this Siggy was at Y", "It's funny how bad guys always go for the name Siggy, I knew a Siggy back in Z"
I'm with Four Islands - slap a lampshade on it & never worry about it again 🙂
That said: While I did enjoy the comeuppance that I thought befell Siggy1 when Nathan shot Siggy2 in the frickin face, I did enjoy their banter quite a bit here 🙂 If anything, I likened the character to Badger from Firefly (I've got Mark Sheppard's voice in my head when I read Siggy's dialogue :D): At gunpoint the first time we meet him when he screws the crew, and slightly antagonistic but helpful the 2nd time.
Most likely too close to S02E10, but... would we get S02E11 still in 2018?
Sorry, love this series way too much, can’t wait for next release!
What's next for the crews of the Karuzari Alliance? We have 5 books left in this part, I guess we will resolve the Dushan arch, but the Sol and Jung threats are just left hanging! we should probably try for an update on those fronts maybe in the next book? maybe a reky into sol for a quick news grab?
probably a stupid suggestion what with everything going on in the universe, but isn't it time for Nathan to have people over for dinner? also, am I right in thinking that all that has happened in part two so far has happened in about 2-3 months??? happy New year all!
Happy new year @four-islands. That sounds about right to me, timeline wise.
What's everyone else reading these days as we (patiently) await #11?
Just finished Artemis. Not bad
Seveneves, by Neal Stephenson. So far, very good (I am at ~1/5 of the book).
Waiting for the next episode from Ryk...
