previously, Revenger Shadow Captain follows the other, less crazy sister, as she tries to revenge herself on pirate Bosa Sennen, then keep their ship supplied, and gain clues about what Bosa was up to.

We … Continue reading "What I'm Reading: Shadow Captain, Bone Silence by Alastair Reynolds"Read More »

"Mort Dinner Rick Andre": Good villain, plot's … Continue reading "Rick & Morty Season 5"Read More »

So much better than just face-grinding mobs, there's a task board of mobs to face-grind (and other tasks sometimes, probably not including walking dogs). I don't necessarily play a lot … Continue reading "Mitrasphere Adventurers Guild"Read More »
