Wait, what? I got it yesterday.

I'm browsing from France so maybe they consider it limey turf and have locked it until the UK edition comes out... only explanation I can come up with. Used to be I could shop on the US kindle store but now it redirects to the FR one. drat.

The No-God appears in a whirlwind and Bakker does this thing where the POV obliquely describes an Inchoroi technological device he does not understand (like the elevator in Golgoterrath or the Heron Spear which is apparently not a spear but some kind of beam weapon).

So some made the whirlwind - helicopter connection. I don't think there's more to it.

Kelhus had a Dunyain son so that kind of narrows it down.

quote:

He fell to his right elbow, so sudden was the vertigo. They floated, he realized. The ancient amputees had been arrayed across a platform of some kind—one rendered of the same unearthly metal as the Ark. Soggomant, foul and impenetrable. He saw golden reliefs through the scuffs in the offal beneath him, warring figures, leering and inhuman.
And the form, opposing S’s hooked about the arms of a V … A shape no Son of the House Anasûrimbor could fail to recognize: the Shield of Sil. They floated upward through some kind of shaft, one impossibly vast, a gullet broad enough to house the King-Temple whole. The Horns, Nau-Cayûti realized …

“A marvel …” one of the wretches croaked, a momentary light flaring and fading in his eyes.
“Is it not?”

They ascended what Siqu called the Abskinis, the Groundless Grave ...
“The Iyiskû …”
“They made this …”
“To be their …”
“Sssshurrogate world …”

The vast well that plumbed Golgotterath’s Upright Horn.

“Now … now …”
“It belongs to me …”

They climbed to the world’s most wicked summit, where none but the dead and the damned descended.

He's actually time-travelling Kelhus, who is also time-travelling Seswatha, who is also Achamian.

Maybe to turn level 10 but Achamian began teaching Kelhus without it.

Finally finished it, then I realized I'd skipped a chapter without even noticing. :rolleyes:

I really liked some moments, even most of them, but to me it completely failed to come together as an overall story.

Was I the only one who thought of the white-luck warrior during the dream sequence in the last Star War? Very similar image.

:goonsay: furthermore, the term holy war (uncapitalized) is also applied to the first Ordeal against Golgotterath in Far Antiquity, so if anything it should be the Second Holy War :goonsay:
