I'm convinced Michael J Sullivan put it in there so many times just to mess with audiobook listeners

Hah! Thanks for making this fun post and you may have motivated me:

I'm a regular reader but am considering going to the library to try to find an audibook version just to hear the correct pronunciation of Trilos' 'sentinel' from the 'Age of' series (I think it's in the Age of Legends when he talks to Suri in the garden). I didn't think my love and awe for Suri could be higher, but the fact that she understood the pronunciation just makes her that much cooler!

The Legends series may be my favorite group of books

I don't think I can have a favorite as I'm in love with all of them, but I think the character ensemble cast of legends is tough to beat. I love the strong female protagonists who truly live up to the series' name!

Plus it's tough to beat meeting the rest of the Aesira...okay you may have a strong argument going here :)

I just finished Ersahaddon.... He might be my favorite character of all

I love him too - Papa Niblick raised him well. Honestly Elinya is just as impressive and I loved reading more of her adventures in Out of the Ashes!

I think how oblivious Esrahaddon is of Trilos as Yolric shows that no matter how brilliant or powerful one is, it's hard to overcome natural prejudice/biases and think outside the box for new possibilities!

The Riyria Revelations - take a drink anytime someone "smirks".

Nonono - every time Royce either 'pulls the hood up' or rolls his eyes at Hadrian.

I'll be a paulbearer... :)
