Yup ! The Lev said the new book is "due in august", I think that means he's got to hand it to his publishers then, so that's when i'm going to re-read both of them for the 6th time (I don't think thats an exasoration).

Oh cool.
I didn't like the second one as much as the first, it felt a bit of a rehash in parts, but the bit in the first book when they guy gets his hands bitten off was really gripping and properly unpleasant.

Yeah', I'm with you on that, there was too much of the book in Follory, it got a bit tedious when searching for the keys, especially at the end when the sea started to run out.
But Julia's bit with the rejects was good, I loved the bits with the europen mythical creatures and assended humans... and it was pretty grim when Raynold appeared.

Yeah, but at the same time, it was essentially a similar description to that when the baddie appeared in the first one
even down to the thrashing legs and snuffling noises made when he broke the guys neck.

It was a bit, but it takes me a good month or two to read a book, so they didn't come to quick for me.
