precision posted:Stephenson has been getting better, The Baroque Cycle had a phenomenal last 100 pages and it ends just the right way. REAMDE is not his best novel but the ending is fine, despite the rather hilarious Magical Mountain Lion. But woof, Snow Crash and The Diamond Age had terrible endings, especially the latter where the novel literally just skips over a bunch of really cool events as if he was on deadline and told "finish it today" Hmm. It's been a while since I read it, but I remember Snow Crash having a great ending (might not have been the actual ending Hiro defeating the hacker guy and neutralizing Snow Crash with his advertisement), where as Seveneves and D.O.D.O, especially the latter, had terrible "endings" in that they literally just end without major resolutions having happened, or with new major conflicts having just been introduced. Baroque Cycle/Cryptonomicon probably have the best Steaphenson endings, where the stories don't necessarily end wrapped up in a bow, but still have a satisfying conclusion that leaves you still wanting more in a good way, and shows that the lives of the characters are going to continue and further things will happen, but we don't necessarily need to see those events. Hopefully F;oDiH reverses the trend of the most recent books.

The Last Call posted:Shadow is going to become the God of Winter right? Why he could make it snow and keeps seeing ice forming on things to help give him clues right? Is that part of some foresight/Godsight? Maybe he has some other tricks. Book spoilers: Shadow is Balder

iv46vi posted:No, they definitely went the other way this season he has way more hair To be fair, I haven't watched the show since the end of the first season, if they are diverting from the book on that matter I can't help you there. e: Nevermind, you were making a joke, lol.

Sekenr posted:Did I get it right that mr. World is secretly Loki or I wasn't paying enough attention/something else entirely? Book spoilers: Assuming they haven't changed things from the book, yes, Mr. World is Loki, and has been conspiring with Wednesday/Odin the whole time.

DarkCrawler posted:I guess I need to give Fringe another shot, the first episode just seemed very...rough? Something happens towards the end of the first season that kind of recontextualizes everything that came before it and unlocks the whole show.
