Wednesday Words: The Kingdom of Gods

Good Humpday to y'all!

Every 2nd-5th Wednesday, if I am reading a book at a good enough pace, I use Random.org to share with you a few lines of what I'm reading. I began reading the third book in N.K. Jemisin's Inheritance Trilogy, The Kingdom of Gods after reading The Broken Kingdoms in about 3 days. Even though I'm a few years late, what a great debut for Ms. Jemisin! I'm a big fan now.

The Kingdom of Gods is a much bigger project than the other two, coming in at 613 words, and we're looking through the eyes of the Trickster Sieh in this one, so whether or not he's reliable is on a very thin balancing beam.

Alrighty, so in the way of pages, Random.org has chosen..........................page 454.

There are 28 lines on that page, so from 1-28, Random has given me...................line 6.

I'm going to jump up to 4 so you all have a little bit of context.

The continent that had been destroyed by the Arameri when they'd been foolish enough to try and use Nahadoth as their weapon. He'd done what they wanted, and then some.

There's always a valuable lesson in being careful what you wish for.
