review:
It took me a while to get into this one; I’m not sure how much was the break between volumes, how much was the feeling of resolution at the end of volume three, and how much was the sheer complicatedness of the story. But once I did get into it, I couldn’t put it down! Compelling and complex story, with interesting growth in all the main characters. I would have wished for a bit more in our world, but other than that it was fantastic.

- @olybuzz I'd look for "geek" or "RPG" vs "gaming" (latter probably going to bring up casinos, etc.) in reply to olybuzz #
- @cssquirrel y'know, I've never really thought about it, but that explains why twitter & seesmic feel so awkward sometimes, esp for posting. in reply to cssquirrel #
- @cssquirrel re lefties: most consistently annoying for me is accidentally starring items in GReader for Android. I just wanna read! in reply to cssquirrel #
- @kegill notably, east of the mountains. in reply to kegill #

- @SalalCU in fairness, I think the Legion Way stretch of the run is downhill, which I would guess (NOT being a runner) is easier than up? in reply to SalalCU #
- @turtlesby if it's really that mondo, I bet you could just ask. lilacs grow like crazy. in reply to turtlesby #
