Quite interesting, the author takes various ideas presented in the Buffyverse and explains the physics behind them, from how a scream can or can not shatter heads, wormholes, vampirism, freeze rays and so on. I did find myself scanning the more technical sections instead of in-depth reading and finished it in a couple of hours.

An addition to the Wheel of Time series, this works more as an encyclopedia, delving in-depth to various elements of the books. More than just a gathering of facts, it expands the stories of the characters, the places, the times. I particularly enjoyed the section on the Age of Legends, with stories of the "wonders" of the time. I also liked the sections on the Forsaken, with backgrounds and details that aren't shown in the books.

This was a reread, I scanned before but read cover-to-cover this time. This is also the source of the name "Nemene," the original name of Semirhage.

Reading this one through dailylit.com, where a novel is sent via email a section per day. Should finish it late July.

And here it is, finished. This is the 2nd of his books I've read, this one is a collection of short stories. He has innovative ideas, I think that he's got a bit of the same spark as Phillip K Dick. It will be interesting to see which of his visions come to pass in time.
