I thought it might be fun to share thoughts about what some people may have been reading on the board. Read a good thread? Share your opinions. Have questions about where the story might go? Maybe this is the place to discuss.
I've got two that just decided to read and really enjoyed.
First up is: The Danger of Trained Tigers (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?p=369795#post369795), off the bat I love the name. It sounds unique and fun and is primarily what made me click on it in the first place (Yes book covers attract my attention. I am a simple (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFl0nlHaWa4&feature=related) man (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/%3Cobject%20width=%22560%22%20height=%22315%22%3E% 3Cparam%20name=%22movie%22%20value=%22http://www.youtube.com/v/6Th0HT2i-T4?version=3&hl=en_US%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22allowFullScreen%22%20va lue=%22true%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cparam%20name=%22allowscriptaccess%22%20 value=%22always%22%3E%3C/param%3E%3Cembed%20src=%22http://www.youtube.com/v/6Th0HT2i-T4?version=3&hl=en_US%22%20type=%22application/x-shockwave-flash%22%20width=%22560%22%20height=%22315%22%20al lowscriptaccess=%22always%22%20allowfullscreen=%22 true%22%3E%3C/embed%3E%3C/object%3E).). At first I didn't know what to make of the meeting between Atrapes, (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/member.php?u=4211) an Inquisitor, and Mr. Liszt (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/member.php?u=5074), apparently 'the minister of the interior'. Perhaps the interior minister is there to redesign the undercity and make it more feng shui, who knows?
As I read on I soon discovered where the thread was leading since I've seen Atrapes hinting at it in in various other threads. I won't give anything away but It's nice to see Rossos rolling out his idea across several threads. Gives it some legitimacy in the universe we're playing in.
BUT the real fun of this thread is the dialogue between the two. Rossos has a very solid 'nack for writing good dialogue and Jace as well. So the two together makes the whole character interaction come off very natural.
Good read.
The second: Cornering the Market (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/showthread.php?t=22059), with Victer (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/member.php?u=3072)and Salem (http://www.sw-fans.net/forum/member.php?u=2876). I'm largely interested in this because of its impact possibilities in our setting. I'm definitely guilty of reading threads that affect my characters more then others but all the same I found myself genuinely enjoying the budding story. I can see where it's going but I've no idea how they're actually going to get there.
I'm not that familiar with the character Victer Dejan so this was a nice introduction to who and what he is about. As always Salem is a fun read too.
All in all it's an intriguing read that has my curiosity peaked.
