“My definition of an adult is someone who lives their life aware they are sharing the world with others. My definition of an adult is someone who knows the world was here before they showed up and that it’ll be here well after they walk away from it.

Once again, I would like to build off this to ask a slightly different question – what makes you decide to back to a series that you left by the wayside? I hadn’t meant to abandon reading Robert Jackson Bennett’s Divine Cities Trilogy. But unfortunately, life got in the way. I got introduced to the series via the Hugo Awards […]
