It is a great quote! I just can't think of any situation where it'd be appropriate. I may just start throwing it out there and hoping it sticks!
Codex Alera is very good. It's more the classic fantasy than Dresden Files. It's funny though - Butcher wrote it based on a bet. Somehow he bet someone that they could give him a crazy idea and he could write a best seller out of it. He one upped them and told them they could give him *two* wacky ideas and he could make it work. The 'prompts' they gave him were the lost 9th Legion and Pokemon. And we got Codex Alera out of that. :)
I'm doing a reread of Butcher leading up to Ghost Story coming out in March. So I've got two more books in Codex Alera and then the Dresden Files begin!
Hee. It is a good quote. I hope you find a place to use it!
ReplyDeleteI haven't gotten to Codex Alera yet. I will! One day!
