The Bridgeburners remind me of the Discworld Watch, which is odd considering how different the two series are.
And again it was the characters that mattered most to me. I just love them all so much. I was even starting to find Bauchelain a bit amusing by the end, which is awful really. Tool and Paran are my favourites I think. So far.
Onwards, let's see if Erikson will continue to tear out my heart and stomp all over it.
