[quote=Gelcube;8193]I think two of the things I’m most looking forward to are:
1. What happens when the Inferno comes back to Mt. Doom with Tom there and the new vamps onboard.
2. Tom finally maybe possibly getting a love interest that makes some progress![/quote]What vamps onboard?
my few cents
I have been wondering how Tom and Rupert survive Etterdam? I mean there was lot of dead D´orcs a some tartarwardenner… and only Orcus and his son get out(well they dont get out since they dont remember anythink, only Tom have some flashbacks).
I was thinking what if there is more D´orcs who who ger reincarnated it make prety sence since they dont remember anythink and it would explained lot of thinks. Think which lead me to this idea is Tom flashback in chapter 127 there was this half undead D´orc Vordec and on the book3 we get this scene where Tizzi make sure Rede the dhampir(half unded) get to Mount Doom.
With reincarnation in mind it would explained why Tal Gor get staf wich was intendet for his past self.
and some ather stuff:-({|= .well its theory and only one not named octoped can explained thinks(i dont think he will)
Arrggghhhh
Teasers….
Truly the Demons of the Abyss are among the most evil forces in the Multiverse!!!!
Hmm,
Well, I can hint that there is more going on than meets the eye in Etterdam.
If you are looking for climactic events, I might suggest looking there, although in part that’s because that is where they last occurred, but as we shall see in Book IV, Etterdam has lots of questions.

That is a VERY good question, and probably one reason there are so few!
Here are the ones in the Courts and who they are “loyal” to.

One might think their liege lord would be trustworthy enough, I wouldn’t, but they might. Actually if you are a good servant that’s likely safe, because your power feeds their power (traditional feudal sort of thing)
Of course, the unaligned princes are a problem, not sure what they would do.
And of course, Lilith and Sam have real problems. Who can they trust?
I suppose I could volunteer to help them! Because who is more trustworthy than me? I can’t think of anyone.

The undead invasion of the city of the Wizards
The alliance between the Rod and the Nation of Crazy Lawyers
The arrival of Talarus’ old girlfriend in the flying abysss traveling submarine at Nysgard – with “Sam” and what i suspect is a Mind Reaver/husband to Talarus’s old girlfriend

The fate of Senter as his cupidity becomes proven to Tiernen
The next plan of Lilith against Tomus
What will happen with the cloud ship/Grove/Jen/Gastrope now

Big battle – how many new orcs will be made D’Orcs after the battle outside the citadel of light? Any new Tiernen Avatars as well that become relevant to the story.

So Tizzy, would you be willing to be [s]bribed[/s] thanked [i]generously[/i] for providing a snippet of Book 4 Chapter 1? Say with some demon cookies or Scooby-snacks?
[spoiler]
Number 1 gets answered in the opening of book 4.Things ALSO addressed in Chapter 1: 3, 4, 9, 11, 15.
Everything else happens in the later chapters.
And of course, “addressed” is not the same thing as “resolved.”
:d/[/spoiler]
–Tizzy
[list][*]Tizzy’s true name is in his journal (will be quite the surprise to whoever opens it and summons him)
[*]The vampire lord had to make a deal with a demon to sire Rede (maybe Tizzy, and why he took Rede)
[*]Tom now knows the book is important
[*]Bess can now work with Tom and sabotage Exador
[*]Pretty sure Tizzy gave Reggie the demon weed that started the whole thing and no-one seems to realize that (dealer toked from an old-fashioned tobacco pipe and Tizzy was upset that Reggie recognized D’weed)
[*]100% sure that Tom’s real father wasn’t a physicist who died in a fireball (Reincarnation? Incubus spawned?)[/list]:-k
Very interesting. Maybe very close. Fortunately, I can be generic enough to say that SOME are very good surmises.
But, which ones?
