I also love how irrelevant Anderson and Kahlee are in this book.  Like you could cut them out of the book and very, very little would change plotwise.  Contrast that to Revelation, where Anderson was undoubtedly the main character and Kahlee was the McGruffin fugitive, or Ascension where Kahlee was the sole reason the Quarians gave Gillian refuge. Or Retribution where Anderson put together the raid on TIM's base, and wounded both Grayson and Kai Leng.  Unless I'm missing something, here they let a Cerberus officer escape, get into a barfight, have sex in a Mass Relay, and arrive to the final battle after everything is already over.

And if you hadn't known that, you probably don't know about the toothbrush.

I could PM you if you really want to know since it is rather spoilerific and I've already slipped once today.

As you know, Nick has always loved Gillian. Every since the first time he saw her eating lunch when she was 12.


NOOOOOooooooooo. Nah huh. :crying: Quit making me cry.

I'm not going to now, I was all set to buy this asap, I didn't know it wasn't by Drew for one and this thread and the excerpt just killed me. I'll read the spoilers to see how and IF it ties in to ME3 at all. 

And then ERASE THE BOOK FROM MY MIND FOREVER.

I can tell you right now. All the other spoilers aside, it doesn't tie into ME3 at all. The only thing it tells us is stuff we already know.

It's Kai Leng's notorious, ultimate lethal weapon. A sharpened toothbrush.

Sure!  :) Should be in your inbox right about now!

Warning for minimal gore. Even if it is based on M-rated game, thought I'd mention it.

To avoid having to PM this to everyone in town, if you pull up the free preview and use the search feature to look up the keyword toothbrush, you can see the paragraph in question.

They were a scruffy-looking bunch who wore face paint, were dressed in mismatched pieces of armor, and rode power skates. They were called the Lightnings and were known for their hit-and-run-style robberies

K.

Not even going to lie - I threw up chow mein laughing at this.

Also, kudos (and by kudos I mean my neverending hate) for Dietz for both queer and disability erasure! Hendel, gay? No! Lemme write him "oogling" an asari dancer with Anderson like a proper bloke (and I'd maybe let that slide as an indication for his bi-sexuality if it weren't for the comment about "going to bars to look for the company 'of the opposite sex'" a couple pages after that gem. No gay people in the future! Got it!).


You know I was going to let the whole "I killed the one and only undeniably gay character in the entire frakking Mass Effect Universe" thing slide because I am generous like that and didn't want to be seen as harping on it.  But first he turns him straight (I'm definately not giving the benefiet of the doubt here) and then he kills him? 

#$%^ you Mr. Dietz.


....What? He must have decided to convert to heterosexuality around the same time Gillian used Level Nine biotics to accelerate her aging process.

Maybe he's just a gay man who likes Asari.

If you are referring to toothbrush thing, I tried to make up my mind about it earlier in this thread. Since one cannot fail at failing I assume that can't be said, but he just sinks deeper and deeper and when you think that he has reached the absolute bottom he goes and cuts the bottom off to show that decline can continue.

Other explanation could be that there might be some sort of deep philosophical message there in this and guy is actually a genius but we just don't get it.
