My personal opinion is that they are only for the ubernerds and completionists.
The read is not worth it.

Aren't you though? I recall you having a pretty big collection?

Do you have the white dwarf magazines, marvel winter special and completed sticker album? ;)

I'll top that and use the proper Umlaute which I, being German 'n' all, should have done in the first place.

At least i can prove not to be an Übernöörd by simply not knowing the book! :)

I read in the last three weeks:
The Great Expanse Part 1
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4

Now i am in the middle of Part 5.

Each of them has 600 pages, medium class science fiction, but no, i am no Übernöörd, just because i don't know the topic of this thread.

You guys really make me feel good. :mrgreen: :D

I have read a lot of fantasy, and I know these books will be no ASOIAF, but are they on par with a run of the mill D&D book?

It's orrrrite.

Its main purpose is that it is written proof, should anyone really need it, that the Fire of Wrath spell doesn't require target LOS.
