Kid’s medicine tastes so good though!!! You’re right!

I’m on book eight, if my memory serves me well. I decided there was such a nagging balance of potential and problems, that I wanted to re-world-build the elf world. If you ever get any ideas for the redesign, let me know.

@ellette-giselle

In the second book everyone knew rescue was coming, and it was a race against time. All hope seems lost, but in the last moment rescue comes and that’s when you find out that the villains had already lost the war and were under order to release prisoners but were trying to off the MC at the last moment.

Oh, did you have a s…[Read more]

 Liko could get stuff done, right? The fellow certainly had enough hands.

*snorts*

@loopylin

Ooh, I like Terry. The problem with names from this era is that so many of them are taken by adults I know. XD

@keilah-h

Not that I hate that, but I don’t love it either. I want them to just beat the bad guys already.

Exactly. I want it, but only as a subplot, not as the main thing.

@whalekeeper

Ugh. The series was good through book 6, but the romantic drama has kind of taken over, and I don’t think Shannon Messenger has any idea what she’s doing anymore.

Also Brian, Kevin, Julie, Terry

@theducktator Found these when I looked up popular gen X names 

@freed_and_redeemed

Eeeeek! I like this. It makes a lot of sense.

*enthusiastic nods*

@elishavet-pidyon

Yeah, so it’s sorta in his skill set. You know, I should really read those books again. Redwall was such a long, glorious phase.

@theducktator

According to Goodreads, 50% of Unraveled consists of Keefe thought-monologuing about Sophie. It’s safe to say this is the main plot. KotLC is officially a fantasy romance.

@whalekeeper

If I remember right, he has long experience breaking out of jail, and so somehow lifts the bolt with a length of cord. Or something. I think your theory is entirely possible. It is the Mousethief, after all. XD

It’s been a while since I read it too.

@whalekeeper

Agreed. I do think she and Keefe are cute together though. I just wish it would stay a side plot.

@theducktator

I personally hope Sophie becomes some important Keeper, with a cool job that she actually likes and is willing to be fully independent for, so she gets past her overly invest relationships. It won’t happen. But one can dream!

@elishavet-pidyon

I was just thinking about Mossflower. 😦 That’s what popped into my head when Ellette men…[Read more]

Lol. And I just jump in talking about Knights and death ravens while the conversation is leaning toward intergalactic elves.  This is what makes KP what it is.

*Poof of random glitter*

@ellette-giselle @ducktater

That’s true! Like in Mossflower, where the one mousethief just escapes. Hilarious yes, but dreadfully convenient. One can still save One’s character, but it needs to fit the rules.

Of course, to mix stuff up you can always make a master prison that has a weakness that both the good guys and the bad guys exploit. L…[Read more]

@whalekeeper

Yeah. *sigh* I think Fitz ought to die. He only seems to exist for romantic drama at this point.

@theducktator

I predict a close death for Keefe, and maybe somebody like Alden will die at the end. Maybe Wylie. But no one super important will die; there’s no way Messenger will do something permanent to the group. 😂
