Agreed. Fantasy needs to start saying stuff instead of 'whot if 1980s story, but with women, troons, and queers'.

I just finished TUC and now I have the urge to go back and start again.

Yeah, that's just based on what the Sohonc reported, and then measuring out the cubit on my own arm as described.

Multiple instances of looking east towards The Horns, when in fact The Ordeal's encampment was on the eastern rim of The Occlusion and Kellhus had blown out the westward facing wall of the Umbilicus to make his point. There was one instance in TUC where the subplot switched but the little filigree marker was missing between paragraphs. I wouldn't call them significant issues, but in the moment they stuck out as things that would have been ironed out with an editing pass. Though that might have removed other things I enjoyed about Bakker's style. Do you think we would have a cunny-raving dragon if the publisher had had a proper look at the material?

I just finished the story a few days ago, and I'm working my way through the glossary at the end. I wasn't specifically looking to note every slip up; I really enjoyed the series and am hoping that we will some day see The No-God.

Thanks for memeing Bakker, guys. That was an amazing ride.

I unironically only listened to The Ruins of Beverast while reading The Second Apocalypse. Remember when that nuke went off in The Great Ordeal? ---> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTjBSQL5lvU
