1 year agoFinished Tiamat’s Wrath last week and have started Foundation’s Edge. The Expanse has been excellent, but i am starting to find The Foundation to be a bit tedious. Second Foundation started to just feel silly with all the psychic abilities just thrown in all of a sudden and all the characters are starting to blend into each other as non-descript 1950’s Americans. That being said i am enjoying Foundation’s Edge a lot more than Second Foundation but am lookin forward to finishing it so i can move on to Dune Messiah.
Doesnt have to be Eastern Europe. Plenty of examples of rich people finding ways for their kids to avaoid the draft during Vietnam and WWII in the US.
