When you're grateful to them for giving you the things
you should have anyway, ask yourself why.



Interrogator: What did you see then?

Finch: Nothing. I couldn't see anything.

I: Wrong answer.

[howls and screams and sobbing]

I: Had you ever met the Lady in Blue before?

F: No, but I'd heard her before.

I: Heard her where?

F: On the fucking radio station, that's where.

[garbled comment, not picked up]

F: It's her voice. Coming up from the underground. People say.

I: So what did you see, Finch?

F: Just the stars. Stars. It was night.

I: I can ask you this same question for hours, Finch.

F: You wanted me to say I saw her! I said it, damn you.

I: There is no Lady in Blue. She's just a propaganda myth from the rebels.

F: I saw her. On the hill. Under the stars.

I: What did this apparition say to you, Finch? What did this vision say?

It couldn't be good and serious at the same time. It'd have to be a lego movie.

I love TCV but they are less quality than QotSA.
Yeah we've been over this. I'm just not a big queens fan, but I enjoyed that vultures album.
We have? I don't remember.

I remember important things that happen.
Lucky you ;)

Ele, that sounds like a pretty good read.

And it has an accompanying album? That reminds me of when I was reading the Fellowship of the Ring while listening to the movie soundtrack.

It's pretty awesome when things sync like that.
It's the third book in a trilogy.

THIS IS THE FINALE

I have fucking adrenaline shivers going on

Yeah, that might as well be an album cover mate.

What's it about?
It is the album cover!

One blurb:

Quote
Tasked with solving an impossible double murder, detective John Finch searches for the truth among the war-weary ruins of the once-mighty city of Ambergris. Under the six-year rule of its inhuman gray cap masters, Ambergris is slowly crumbling into anarchy. The remnants of a rebel force are dispersed, their leader, the mysterious Lady in Blue, missing. Citizens are being interned in camps. Collaborators roam the streets keeping brutal order. But Finch also has to contend with new forces rising, like the enigmatic spymaster Ethan Bliss, and the contamination of his partner, Wyte, who is literally disintegrating under the strain. In this powerful and poignant novel, the past and the future, the cosmic and the gritty, collide. What will happen if Finch solves the case? What will happen is he doesn’t? And will Amergris ever be the same?

Another blurb:

Quote
In Finch, mysterious underground inhabitants known as the gray caps have reconquered the failed fantasy state Ambergris and put it under martial law. They have disbanded House Hoegbotton and are controlling the human inhabitants with strange addictive drugs, internment in camps, and random acts of terror. The rebel resistance is scattered, and the gray caps are using human labor to build two strange towers. Against this backdrop, John Finch, who lives alone with a cat and a lizard, must solve an impossible double murder for his gray cap masters while trying to make contact with the rebels. Nothing is as it seems as Finch and his disintegrating partner Wyte negotiate their way through a landscape of spies, rebels, and deception. Trapped by his job and the city, Finch is about to come face to face with a series of mysteries that will change him and Ambergris forever.

Note: The Graycaps are basically mushroom people who were driven underground when pirates originally conquered and slaughtered them and built the human city of Ambergris on top of their city.

what book?
nevermind i just saw the other thread.
That and it says in the picture on the video :P
i figured the vid was unrelated and you were listening as you read, not a complete experience type thing. thats pretty nifty.
you have no idea... I'm not sure whether I'll try to listen to certain songs during parts of the book that seem appropriate... but I might
