They should do the same thing as with the movie forum and make a new, more casual forum where it's illegal to bully people by saying books are written with words. Everybody wins, imo.

On rereading the ending - a few things popped out regarding the possession going on. It looked to me like Kellus made some sort of pact with the 4 horned god, allowing the possession - perhaps promising him the world in exchange for safety/kingdom in hell. And then does something to kick the God out. I mean I didn't see any actual activity that Kelmomas did to interrupt the possession.

Kelmomas fucks up god stuff in general, so it probably worked the same way it broke the Narindar & Sorweel.

There is also a weird sentence where one of the Mutilated acts like he is answering a question about Kelmomas, even though no one has asked one. As if he were carrying on a separate conversation with Kellhus that the others were not hearing.

He's talking about Ajokli, isn't he? Kellhus/Ajokli begins giving his pitch about them serving him as generals, one of the mutilated begins saying something about his siblings hunting him, and how he is hiding here, which I took to mean that the other Gods are pissed about him sneaking into the Granary.

Why can the Gods see Kellhus but not Kelmomas? Is it because he was destined to be / is the no-god?


Gotta be this, right? Kelmomas will become the No-God, the No-God is invisible, time is non-linear, therefor he's always been invisible.

I found this trilogy really frustrating to read. First had promise, the second two I count as essentially a complete waste of time.


Out of curiosity, what was it you found interesting about the first book but not the sequels?
