You can complain about the bad translations or you can use it for headcanon fodder. Book 4 seems to imply that Erwin Josef is predisposed to marry Charlotte Phillis, admiral Alex Caselne's daughter. Since there are a lot of paragraphs that talk about Erwin Josef where Caselne's name shows up. (edited)
Er spoiler? You should mark that…

thought you read chapter 5. Sorry. Although double checking there were only two instances of them sharing a paragraph. And one of them was just Caserne saying "White knight syndrome is engulfing the capital".

oh I'm pretty behind on the books, still on the last section before this current bookclub. I didn't realize that was a thing that had happened in our current section of the bookclub, so it was fine to not spoiler it.

I had been under the impression that if you didn't bring something up it was because you didn't find it interesting enough to mention it. Like, I thought it strange you didn't mention the lard kaiser, who was the worst kaiser since Rudolf. But figured that maybe it wasn't as interesting as Rudolf naming a unit of measurement after himself. I don't want to be the guy who constantly points stuff out from the books. Which is why I reference the manga and DNT. And the musical.

If that's something from a while back, I don't remember it at all

but I like you referencing things from the books. I'm in a similar place in our meetings though where I don't really want to just constantly bring up "and then this happens in the books, which is different"

It's something from the chapter I mentioned (though lard kaiser is a moniker I made up). Schumacher starts to wonder how bad a kaiser Erwin Joseph will become, then the narrator goes onto a tangent about a kaiser whom plunged the galaxy into civil war, (edit:which he lost) before being replaced by another Goldenbaum.

I've actually been constantly one-meeting behind on the books so I haven't been able to talk too much about anything, even if there were things I could've brought up. I remember one thing I noted was the descriptions of the axes. Like, they're diamond encrusted melee weapons, which I suppose might make sense, but it feels a bit silly.

It was fun! I got into the story. Sanderson does seem to have an annoying flaw in writing where, whichever character the MC meets first, is always the most trustworthy person or someone important. Like, you just happen to stumble upon the leader or whatever when you start exploring, c'mon now

I never actually realized this though, that's funny.

My mom said Theo of Golden is really good, but the story felt like an old man's wet dream, coming into a new community and helping solve problems with all his wisdom. It felt too... contrived. Granted, I only got about 100 pages in.

Lol My mom also recommended it and I did not enjoy the authors style at all. You probably got farther then I did.

I told my mom your review, she thought it was funny

It's definitely at its best as a travel/commerce story. The action scenes at the end felt out of place in this type of story. If there's going to be a lot more action, I'm not really interested.
