Just finished Blood and Bone, couple questions:
Anyone else annoyed by how heavily the publication order is showing in the characters themselves. Up until Forge of Darkness(published just before Blood and Bone), the Azathanai were just called Elder Gods. Now that word gets tossed around like it's regular conversation. T'riss's memory loss? Mentioned at least a couple times in this book, but never before.
I'm assuming the great big dust cloud towards the end was Osserc forgetting to deploy his parachute. And what was the point of that? Was that him destroying the construct that tapped all of Jacuraku? Was that necessary? Easily could have folded into a failed ritual backfiring.
The Army of Righteous Chastisement, what as their point? I get that they were a distraction for the Circle of Masters, but as a pov, Golan had almost no direct impact on the story.
The Thaumaturgs pulling the Visitor closer, is that a revision? Because I thought it was heavily implied in DoD and TCG that they were coming for the chained god. The Rope kills him and the Visitor reverses course. It's just a happy coincidence that the Circle of Masters failed at that exact moment? Seems very unlike Shadowthrone.
The tie-in with Stonewielder was very nice. What's next for Esslemont? I think he has two more books left, Assail and somewhere else?
