Midnight Tides - yes, another MT thread!

[nj1]

Dammit, I've lost all my posts in the Errikson threads.

Ah well here goes. ASSUME SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T FINISHED!!!!!

I really struggled with the start of this book, there wasn't really any one character that i liked, so it made things a bit of a trial for a while.
Didn't think much of Trull, but did enjoy the flight from collecting the sword, the probelm was he was just too negative, same with Udinass, man he depressed me sometimes.
The redeeming light was Tehol and Bug and of course Iron Bars and the Crimson Guards. Loved the banter between T + B especially the discussions on dinner. Really glad T survived his kicking as that would av been a nasty way for him to go! I don't know what to think of B actually being Mael and what was the link with Wither praying to him (don't answer that, I guess answers will follow in later books).

I'm looking forward to reading more on the Crimson Guards and finding out more about the Avowed.

Before the crash, Lenny mentioned that we were introduced to ENVY and SPITE, when was that? were they supposed to be the daughters the the Edur feared?

Anyone know who the Tobalakia gods were supposed to be? have they been mentioned before? and if they could be killed then why were they in the Azath house?
