When I started doing a Let's Read of the Threats to the Nentir Vale book, I had every intention of posting individual links to each entry here... but though the project was completed pretty quickly, that aspect of it fell by the wayside.

So here's a link to a page that lists every post in the Let's Read. Enjoy!

Kennt ihr dieses GefĂĽhl in einen zu gehen, um genau eine Sache zu kaufen und dann geht ihr mit viel mehr raus als ihr wolltet?

Ich wollte eine Wanderkarte kaufen, das hat gut geklappt.

Hey! I'm not how well promoting things works on Mastodon but I'm going to give it a try.

I've got a podcast, where a friend and I read through and discuss the Dragonlance novels. We started it last year and it is slowly growing into something really great, I think.

I'd love if you'd give it a listen: dragonlancepodcast.com/

Let's Read Threats to the Nentir Vale!

Our next entry talks about the Blackfang Gnolls. Personally, I'm not enthusiastic about Yet More Gnolls, but these are a nice update to the Thunderspire Labyrinth opponents.

Hey @bookstodon what are you reading lately?
I’m finishing up my holiday reads, the last one being A Magical New York Christmas by Anita Hughes, and I’m getting ready to start The Last Unicorn by Peter S Beagle for a sci-fi/fantasy book club I’m leading! 🤓

This chapter really strikes me as a bonding moment between Croaker and Raven and some great gamable content for stealthy tactics. I do really like his character studies.

This one was a very dense chapter. I mis-recalled the events over a couple of chapters. Again, I think there are great scenes in this chapter but the overall read (after a couple years distance) is that the overall thrust is a little muddled. I will need to read his bio to see when this series really started in his career. I do feel like the other books were more coherent in the omnibus.

@kensanata Yes, there were many good story telling gems in this chapter: Getting to know the Soulcatcher with Croaker's talk. Definitely channels the importance of people that wrote in times like that. I will say the main theme of the chapter; Raker was quite muddled to me. I still (after the 2nd reading) don't quite get what the actual "downfall" of Raker was...ESPECIALLY in light of the ease of dispatching him.

Getting back to this one. The chapter was much longer than the first and there was much to unpack there. I do agree with the more uncomfortable parts and always want to know the reasons for authors putting them in books. I suspect it is mired in 80's privilege.

More wizardly bits that were interesting to me as well. This time around, I noticed the use of "glamor" as the word to show illusions and was more tuned into that.

@kensanata before we go further in our series on , did you see there was a book called Port of Shadows that was put between the original 1 and 2 books? If you have the omnibus editions, it would not be in there.
