    @Neb, thank you kindly for posting this. The connections we make widen our world. I made Fedor a promise he can leave his weapons trade after that Kamchatka expedition, perhaps more on that some other time.

    Naturally, I cannot say no. Look at those eyes. And of course, as luck would have it, Patty… It’s been some time since I’ve participated in our two-women book club. To make up for it, here is a copy of La amiga estupenda by Elena Ferrante. She’s one of the most influential authors of our time...

    [Co-written by many authors, edited accordingly. This post backtracks sightly.] Some time ago, back at the heart of the Devalaya... While chaos flashed around him, Gunnar Maelstrom saw a silhouette he instantly recognized. She stood, as if waiting for him, but remained just out of reach. He...
