Sure, still felt it was sexist though. Not the only sexist element in the G&F books either, King was quite problematic at times.

Never having read them through that particular lens I can't really comment further :)
Kind of hoping it's not Ulrika that's carked it.
Plus, being Vampire, just how dead she is is a matter very much up for debate.
I hope so too, if it was just some vision which could be aimed at screwing Felix up that would be ok
Well if she does get killed I can't imagine Felix spending the next book trying to have her resurrected and I doubt Nagash is going to do it either.
Good. They still better not kill her off. She is the most developed female character in WFB and if she dies she should die well in her own novel.
Edit: And she ****ing well better not get killed by Felix or Max.
A friend of mine is going to let me know what happens when she finishes it.
But I will be so pissed if she dies unless it is ****ing gloriously. Her getting her own novel(s) was the first sign GW might be taking female characters seriously and if she gets bumped off in a G&F book it will be bad enough but it had better be good.
What I love about Snorri, is his child like simplicity. He's older and maybe a little wiser in this book. He's also got some deamons from his past to exercise. It's why he comes across so simple. It helps him forget just how tragic his past is. I love the old Slayer too. He has a kind heart and puts Gotreks black and white attitude to shame most of the time.
Yeah Snorri is pretty cool.
I still want to do a kid's book called 'And Snorri shall have a Bucket of Vodka'.
involving such lines as.....
"See Snorri charge the Trolls. Can you count how many there are? Snorri can't"
