Section 4

Please keep all discussion to the events and speculation from Intersect (II): Tinder - Interlude: Aurin And Amadine.

No spoiler tags required. Though it would be highly appreciated if you Uncheck Add to my Update Feed to avoid accidentally spoiling this for your good read friends.

Please do not discuss events from later chapters/books. Referring back to events from a previous section/book is fine.

Sky Corbelli | 288 comments I keep wanting to read Anatoly Vireska with a heavy Russian accent, but then he says something like "ain't convenient" and I have to pick my mind back up after failing at the mental acrobatics to make it sound right...

I really hope now that Locke and Jean have escaped, they will stop being so badly outclassed. But I'm not optimistic.

It seems like Mr. Lynch thinks the only way to tell a story is to constantly make his protagonists look like idiots, despite being quite the contrary.

Meanwhile the flashback story is pretty good.

Hanne (hanne2) That section was a bit weird. I get how she got locke to get out, but Jean fighting 20 armed men in the room next door, and Locke didn't hear a thing?

I have a few more comments, but I'm a bit lost in where I am in your comment sections right now, so I'll keep them or me.

I read it as Locke getting knocked out by the poison first - then they take Jean out.

Hanne (hanne2) ah, that would make more sense indeed.

Nope. I disliked the final book of his first series so much plus the new series isn't complete yet that I'm not in a hurry to check it out. Your comment pushes it a bit further down my list too.

I'm a bit burnt out on that kind of thing.

I still plan to read it at some point, but it's low on my list.

It's better than Night Angel too. Though I kinda like the idea of having a bagel at night.
