Well, the best laid schemes of mice and me...
I think I may have read about 100 pages of Kushiel's Dart. Like everyone else, I was looking forward to the spicy parts, which I never really got to and eventually gave up on. I won't get side tracked explaining why I wasn't all that taken by the novel, but I will say that I remember being bored.
I was googling 'Skaldia' to see if my blog posts would come up in the search, and I found a whole bunch of stuff on Kushiel's this and Kushiel's that. As it turns out, there is a country in this series called "Skaldia," and it is based on our world's Teutonic countries with slavery and a dose of D/s for good measure. I really do not want anyone who may play in my vision of The Land of The Linnorm Kings to think that it is any way related to this series of books... (like the people I play RPG's with ever heard of this book until I just blogged about it)... But I really like the name Skaldia... so what do I do? Do I keep the name Skaldia or do I come up with something else?
I think I'll stick with Skaldia... it is my vision of how Skyrim would be fit into Golarion, and this post is my disclaimer that I took nothing from the Kushiel's this and that series. Comments, gentle reader, are welcome.
