The Scarab Path

I am hopelessly enmired in Tchaikovsky's creation, and have been for a while. Helplessly carried along, as he kills yet another of the folk I have become fond of, or even only used to, and he makes me feel the pathos and the sorrow.

Shadows of the Apt is a stupendous creation; a huge meshed set of stories that covers only part of a strange, magical world. I will soldier on, as Thalric does (I like Thalric), until the end. I will cavil only slightly at the revelation of the Slugs -- a little too powerful for my liking, hence 4 and not 5 stars -- and hope we see no more of them.
