Sounds great.

I plan a rereading of Soldier of the Mist in the near future. I read it twenty years ago or so in a spanish edition but I will buy a copy of an english edition to enjoy the peculiar style of Wolfe.

Gwent: the witcher card game.

Maybe I will try Shadow of War and AC: Origins (this when available).

Urth finished, my 29 book of the year.
I'm going to read now the books of blood (vols. IV, V and VI) of Barker.

Urth ended.

Terrific saga. I have no words. I need to process it. The ending is fantastic.

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing the link.

But Bakker said that Kellhus is dead but not done. So it’s unlikely that he has found oblivion if he’s still a player.

I'm online gaming impaired - is this a game you play online? Or download it? Play with others on internet or just against the AI?

Yes, it's online. And there are thousands of people playing 24/7.
Now it's an open beta that works perfectly well.
You play mainly against other players on internet. I think that when the game will be released there will be a single-player campaign against the AI.

Is anybody here addicted to that game/drug?

I mean:

https://www.playgwent.com/en/

The Witcher card game. Open beta now.

I started playing a week or so ago. It is a little bit different from the game in The Witcher 3 but very addictive - in my humble experience. Lol.

I've finished the Citadel of the Autarch.
I can say now that the four books are amazing. Excellent saga, with a peculiar style, and a peculiar story too. Yeah, definitively Vance is here as an influence, a very good one.
I'm starting The Urth of the New Sun now to complete the story of Severian.

I don't think he was surprised that the Mutilated joined the Consult, in TTT he thought that Moe would do so in the end.
