Right. You're normal, and everyone else are just whingers.
Reminds me of Ferro, in Abercrombie's First Law trilogy. She felt no pain. But she was not at all happy. More like always angry.
- gotocake 8y agoThat was such an amazing series, and I found it had a lasting emotional impact. I still feel vaguely hurt and angry when I think about it!
- mirimir 8y agoSame here. I've read that, on one level, it's a satire on the Ring Trilogy. It's almost pure tragedy (with issues resolved through destruction) but has some very sweet comedy (with issues resolved through friendship and marriage). And there are virtually no pure heroes or villains. I mean, he gets you feeling sympathetic with an expert torturer. And with a bunch of more-or-less psychotic marauders. Because he gets to to understand what's shaped them. What they've been through. And as well, it's loaded with great fight sequences. If you haven't read his other books in that world, I highly recommend it. There's one that's largely about Logen.
