Pretty epic. Shame he used so many of those words to write about Perpetuals.

It’s the perpetual problem when writing about perpetuals that you perpetually have to write words about perpetuals!

Pretty epic. While quantity can be nice, it should never be mistaken or taken for a sign of quality. GRRM level of success blows the entirety of BL publishing history out of the water. If the winds of winter ever drops it will likely on its own outsell the entire siege of Terra series. From a business perspective BL would ritually sacrifice Abnett alive if it meant GRRM sale levels for their next book series. Probably throw half a dozen other BL authors in just to be on the safe side. Just Kyme in a robe chanting 'onto the anvil of profits, into the fire of sales' while the head of marketing hands him the knife.
