I found WICKED BRONZE AMBITIONS reminded more of one of those Shaklespearean Historical plays where as lot of innocent beings wind up dead; in fairness, the body count is less than in Hamlet. That still makes for less than enjoyable reading. I'llattempt to omit spoilers: those who have read this tragic story will know of an early and a much later death-like event both of which occur in one instance to a character around whom there is a positive valence and in the other to one whose sole flaw is that of [deleted to avoid spoiler]. I certainly hope there is sequel; WICKED BRONZE AMBITIONS IS very well written; Glen Cook is incapable of bad writing. But I am really hoping for a sequel to WBA to take the bad taste out of my mouth!

He's got to go out with a memorable line (if not more).

I have been reading these books since the first one came out in 1987 and I still have all the paperback copies, including the three omnibus books that includes the first nine books. The last interview by Glen Cook indicated he had a contract for two more books (Gilded Latten Bones & Wicked Bronze Ambitions). Unless he has signed any other contracts for more Garrett books, I think we have seen the end of the series, even though I would like to see another one to tie loose ends, especially whether the dead man will wake or not, and whether he and Strafa lives happily ever after. If anyone out there knows anything about any other books or interviews, I would be interested to know. _______________________________________________ glencook-fans mailing list glencook-fans@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/glencook-fans _______________________________________________ glencook-fans mailing list glencook-fans@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/glencook-fans
