Suzanne’s comments from the Nothing But Reading Challenges group.

@Leslie - I just realized we need justification for "Read a book where a character gets drunk" for The New Husband

Once we get that, the monster is ready for defeat.

Thanks!

I'll be done with the animal one today so don't worry about that one.

You did and it immediately got snapped up and used for one of the monsters for the MPG war. I just checked on the main team sheet and it's there. So nope - you aren't dreaming!

Thanks Anna!

New Monster - and cool picture!
Caucasian Eagle



The Caucasian Eagle has taken to the skies over your lands in the search of do-gooders who don't think the rules apply to them. Not so hard to defeat with a little effort and maybe setting some traps with organ meat.

To vanquish this monster you must:
1.) Read a book between 200 and 299 pages (inclusive).
2.) Read a book set in Russia.
3.) Read a book with a bird on the cover.
4.) Read a book with the letters LIVER in title (any order)
5.) Read a book where a character goes to prison/jail (or is already there).

I turned in that hydra.

@Anna - You read Fire awhile back and I saw it come up first in a list about "books with archer characters", and I see there is a boy and arrows on the cover. Just wanting to confirm - does it fit for X(3) (Centaur)? And does it fit for any other of those tasks?

Thanks CB - that does look like it would work. Good observing :)

Wow thats awesome

Centaur



The Centaurs have over run the forests on your lands and are taking no prisoners (sorry Prometheus). In a new category of moderately hard to defeat, they shouldn't be underestimated. In fact, in most realms they are known for their intelligence, so plan your attack well.

To vanquish this monster you must:
1.) Read a book between 300 and 349 pages (inclusive).
2.) Read a book with a forest on the cover.
3.) Read a book where a character is an archer.
4.) Read a book with MPG Classics.
5.) Read a book where a character is considered wise.

New Monsters
Chimera



The Chimera has been spotted on your lands causing destruction everywhere it goes. Hard to kill and known to have multiple personality disorder, be prepared for chaos.

To vanquish this monster you must:
1.) Read a book between 350 and 450 pages (inclusive).
2.) Read a book that takes place in Asia Minor (Italy, Greece, Albania, Macedonia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Egypt, Libya, Israel and Lebanon).
3.) Read a book with "spear" in the text.
4.) Read a book with MPG War.
5.) Read a book that features a lion, goat, or snake.

I'll be home in about 30 minutes and check them in if it's not done. Nice work!

I have an MPG Animal one I can read. It's only 288 pages though - so if someone has one with more page numbers, feel free to take it.

That's great Sana - thanks!

Way to go, Ushashi!

@Charanya - can you add details about MC is a mother?

Note: Alyana, your book also works for that prompt, but it has more options, so seems good to use Charanyas here - that was my thinking anyway :)

@Renata - can you put in the specifics for CAVE in text and character uses a sword? So cool that books works for 4 tasks.

I turned in Sirens and we got another one of these. At least the prompts are easier than some. She seems to love us!

Echidna



Echidna aka the Mother of Monsters has been spotted on your lands. Hard to kill and looking for some quality "me time".

To vanquish this monster you must:
1.) Read a book between 350 and 450 pages (inclusive).
2.) Read a book with CAVE in text.
3.) Read a book where a character uses a sword.
4.) Author name (first and last) contain all the letters in HERA
5.) Read a book where a MC is a mother

I'll be finished with the rope book this morning sometime.

I would have been faster but I was doing the theater stuff for 3 days and that was pretty all-consuming. But I only have about 50 pages left.

No each book can only be used for one open monster, darn it!

Oh, and I just noticed Crowbones is #8 in The Others series. I marked that and Kraken is done, but I have to leave - granddaughter has her first Lion King performance.
