Redux?

SCSF: Yes, that would be the "second read" to this "first read", since it is clear by now that this series requires another look for a truly good analysis.

After all, she would have us believe that all you need to do to "get rid of racism" is to kill or otherwise remove the Bad Racist Guys who are in charge of the system and then everyone else will instantly just get over it somehow and it won't ever happen again. There isn't, for example, a core group of people who rebel against the abolishment of anti-Forbidden laws and sentiment and form a group of some kind in the manner of the KKK.

Yep, the only such group would be the Seneschal and that is easily overthrown. And she also thinks that the Way of the Axe and the Plough and the racism are inextricably bound, which is... not how that works, either.

It actually doesn't matter; they might look different, but both species of magpie will happily live alongside humans and both are known for their singing.

I do feel compelled to note that their differences are deeper than looks, since the Australian Magpie is not an actual corvid, but it does indeed matter little. (Are Eurasian magpies best known for their song? It might well be.)

Also, in book three we learn that the Icarii don't even know what sheep are so how do THEY have access to wool?

So I checked, and they said that sheep are "virtually unknown"... which is nonsense, since the Avar have sheep!

???

That is the first book of the DarkGlass Mountain trilogy, with StarDrifter and Axis back again, and with Ishbel, Isaiah and Maximilian. I am quite sure you have read it, since you once mentioned StarDrifter growing new wings.

Edit: To address the probable misunderstanding, of course this will keep going past chapter 38. It is just that there will be another face.

And I messed up your formatting yet again. (facepalms) Well, better from now on.
