Linden

I'm halfway through "Fatal Revenant" now, and the ending of the first part was really, really cool. Leave it to Linden to figure out a way to use the EarthBlood to not screw everything up. Now I really want to reread the first book in light of what I now know about everything that has been going on.

I would also like to point out that Donaldson is becoming positively Gene Wolfe-ish in his use of goofy adjectives. I mean, come on. Bedizened? Epitomic? Fulvous? And that's just in the last 10 pages or so that I read. Not that I mind so much, I can figure things out. I've just never noticed that in his other books before, so I wonder why he's doing it now. Or maybe I've been missing it.
