Absolution Black Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 ...wow, that's a lot of hate for that character. I'm very proud of Waechter right now...I don't usually get such a visceral reaction. I liked him, then despised him for being a coward, now sort of see his POV. But he still deserves a bullet in the head...I guess, all the more reason to keep him alive then...get the readers wanting him to get his come uppance and then he seems to survive.....

SteamHammer Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 I hate that guy. The Ghost books were ok up to that but how they dealt with him put me off them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Honestly, the casual anti-dramatic methods that Abnett uses to kill off characters is one reason I enjoy reading his stuff...because in real life, you're far more likely to just get gunned by at random going from cover to cover than in some defiant last stand. ...not that this prevented me throwing Armour of Salvation across the room when SPOILER Caffran/SPOILER died.

SteamHammer Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 I wouldn't mind characters being killed by a random shell or gun fire its when Open Spoiler in a universe that has daemonic possessions how a trained person just accepts the crazy person with a knife to their friend rather than shooting them in an instant.

Absolution Black Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Lol, steam you have a point...not enough to stop me reading the ghost novels though... And Edonil, yes...'his' death was shocking, just for the needlessness (is that a word) If its the death that i am thinking of lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOneWhoFell Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) HA! Thanks Ed! In Dragons of Autumn Twilight, the bad guys cast a spell on Tanis HALF-ELVEN that makes him fall asleep... as to the Pegasi... wouldn't work... he's got Elven blood and would therefore be immune to said spells... *shakes head at the lack of continuity* Edited October 13, 2011 by TheOneWhoFell further explanation needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Krynn was different than your run of the mill D&D universes. +1 the dragonlance setting and the core dnd setting have a lot of differences...but I forgot about that scene. Been a long time since that trilogy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOneWhoFell Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 I know, right? I haven'r read this book in a decade, easily... if not longer... I'm actually enjoying it at the moment.... but still... if this is supposed to be a D&D book... Tanis TOTALLY wouldn't have succumbed to those spells *shakes head* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOneWhoFell Posted October 13, 2011 Report Share Posted October 13, 2011 Dragonlance series (by Margret Weis and Tracy Hickman) is based (somewhat) on D&D... but there are some MAJOR differences... Like... Half-Elves lose their immunity to sleep spells (it's only the first I've found... but I have been trying to not over think it...) This is the first time I've read the sereis since starting to play D&D... which lends a new... perspective... on things.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
