I waited nearly four years to read this book to have it all come to...this? Really? I mean, REALLY?



But hey, I guess I can't complain. At least I didn't buy the book as soon as it was released and therefore didn't get totally ripped off by paying 10 bloody shrimping euros for 100 miserable pages. So go me and stuff.

· Book 1: Legion ★★★★
· Book 2: Skin Deep ★★★★★

Excerpt from the book available here!!

Argh, I miss Stephen Leeds' hallucinations so bad (view spoiler)[I 💕lurves💕 you, J.C.! (hide spoiler)], why does this book have to be so bloody shrimping expensive?!





[April 2018]

Our Lord Shrimp knows, Mr Sanderson and I have had our, um, differences, in the past. Nothing, um, major, mind you. Just slight, um, disagreements, about the, um, quality, of his writing abilities and stuff. Ever wonder why the whole world members of the Sanderson Cult put a bounty on my head, or why they eat shrimps for breakfast? Because they're a heartless, intolerant bunch? There is that, yes. But I think it mostly has to do with the fact that they start convulsing whenever someone DNFs gives a 2-star rating rates one of Mr Sanderson's wonderful books anything less than 5 stars. Told you they were heartless.

Anyway, my point is (because yes, there is a point), if you see me actually adding one of Mr S.'s creations to my to-read shelf, it should tell you something. Yes, it should. What should it tell you, you ask? That said creation might perhaps possibly not be entirely crappy (unlike the rest the stuff Mr S. usually writes). As it happens, this little series right here may or may not be one of my mostest favoritest ever (but don't tell the Sanderson Freaks Cult, or I'll never hear the end of it). So when I saw that we were finally getting a new instalment in this series, I went all like…



I know that losing one's lower jaw in public isn't very polite, but you have to understand, I've been waiting for this story to be published for three bloody shrimping years!

So off I went to pre-order my copy (please refrain from mentioning this to the Sanderson Freaks Cult, too. I'm afraid it wouldn't be good for their heart pressure and stuff). And I saw the price. And I went all like…



10 bloody stinking euros for a 100-page novella? You know what this is called, in technical terms? A bloody fishing rip-off, that's what. Stephen Leeds, I lurves you and stuff, but not THAT much. Also, I have plenty of harem slaves boarders to take care of entertain me while waiting for your overly overpriced price to dramatically go down, so I'm sure time will fly in the meantime and stuff.
