Moments of Doubt

[cyberskiver.livejournal.com]

I'm assuming that if you're here, you probably admire MWT's ingenious writing. However, there must have been moments when you wondered
a) what she was doing,
b) if she could pull it off,
c) if you would still like her books after such-and-such a plot twist,
d) all of the above.

I think this topic may have been mentioned before, but I thought it needed its own post.


For me, the one time she really had me worried was during the conversation between Eugenides and Agape in QoA. I was thinking, No, no, don't let Gen end up with her! She's too nice!

At that point, I didn't realize that Eugenides was in love with Attolia. I just knew that Agape was not the woman for someone like Eugenides.

This is possibly why I accepted Gen's later revelation right away. I thought, Oh. He's in love with Attolia. That's good.


So, people, any moments you'd like to share?

Having said that, to return to topic, on the "what is she doing?" front, there is the magus. What is up with the extended "captivity"? I just know something is happening here (and wondering how Relius enters into it, now that he wants to contact the magus) but I can't see it.
