![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() However, in this ninth volume, if you can read between lines, some mysteries are revealed, specially one connected to the identity of someone who was close to the heart of Morpheus but you never got the chance of watching them together in The Dreaming and other characters when commented about the romance, they never say the name of the mysterious lady. ![]() Even, the trigger element for the following happening is odd and kinda clumsy, once the story unfolds. Since it’s the longest (so far) volume in the series, and certainly it was superbly written, but in my humble personal opinion, it’s too long once you get to the point of the story. The Kindly Ones was a tricky book to rate. In any case, it was good to buy this TPB at the same price that the other previous ones. Maybe it was a request by Neil Gaiman, the author, or not. I mention this, since this ninth volume is easily twice the long, so it could be normal to be priced in a higher price. If we did otherwise, we would not be ourselves.īefore of anything, I want to comment that it was very nice to find that The Kindly Ones TPB price remained in $19.99, the same as other previous TPBs. Illustrators: Marc Hempel, Richard Case, D’Israeli, Glyn Dillon, Teddy Kristiansen, Charles Vess, Dean Ormston & Kevin Nowlan Superbly written but too long for what the story is about ![]()

My “review” of this book will be short: The Glass Bead Game is an astounding literary achievement. Thus begins The Glass Bead Game, a sprawling and monumental work of fiction by the German writer Hermann Hesse. The very fact that serious and conscientious men treat them as existing things brings them a step closer to existence and to the possibility of being born. Nothing is harder, yet nothing is more necessary, than to speak of certain things whose existence is neither demonstrable nor probable. … For although in a certain sense and for light-minded persons non-existent things can be more easily and irresponsibly represented in words than existing things, for the serious and conscientious historian it is just the reverse. ![]() ![]() ![]() Randomness can positively impact your life as much as it can negatively impact it. ![]() Things in life aren’t as optimized as we think. Sometimes, randomness enables you to enjoy perks you think you don’t deserve to enjoy. ![]() I learned that we are not as responsible for where we are in life as we think we are. This book had an unexpected impact on me. Taleb analyzes several situations where randomness intervenes without our noticing. The main thesis of the book is that we often underestimate the role of chance and randomness in life. This one is the first installment of The Incerto, Taleb’s series discussing randomness and asymmetry in life. Taleb used to work as a trader in New York. The book explores many situations where randomness should be taken into account more often and explains different principles related to that topic. It explains that randomness, because it is unseen, plays a much bigger role in life than we are ready to accept. Silent evidence prevents us from having an accurate vision of history.įooled by Randomness is a book written by Nassim Taleb.We cannot predict the future based on the past because the future is different. ![]() ![]() The Blean Heritage & Community Group & the Blean Initiative aim to “encourage people to visit The Blean, to experience and enjoy its heritage and wildlife”. ![]() Much of this evidence is, sadly, being lost as the uses for the woodland have changed in recent times, these ancient crafts are being forgotten and their evidence erased. We walked along a boundary marked by a bank and tree pollards and learnt to recognise the evidence of traditional uses for the woodland resources. David and Beatrice Shire are volunteers for the Blean local heritage initiative and were able to reveal to us the natural and man-made landmarks within the ancient woodland.ĭeep in the wood we found the impressive Crooked Oak and a moated site, thought to date from the 14th century – perhaps once a hunting lodge, or the King’s residence when visiting Canterbury. ![]() David Shire lead a group of Hernhill locals on a fascinating misty-morning walk from The Red Lion, Dunkirk to Crooked Oak and through North Bishopden Wood. ![]() ![]() ![]() " You're goin' to stay here until your old man comes across, " she The old woman looked right into Miss Blandish.
