      I’d watch “Wizard with a shotgun”. Or like a wizard with an old long rifle/musket who carved it up like a wizard staff.

      “You're thinking ‘Did he use six spell slots or only five?’

      “pretty sure it was 6” exits cover

      shotgun racking

        The Rifleman, except Chuck Connors now looks like a younger, pre-beard Gandalf expy with runes carved into the mithril barrel of his lever-action

          This was basically an old Pathfinder character of mine

          A Paladin of the God of Community who used guns made of holy silver, loaded with blessed bullets, to protect his village from slavers and colonizers

          I even got the last hit on the General of the invaders with a bullet that turned into a flaming Jaguar to bite out his throat

        The Shattered Sea trilogy I guess

        I love Abercrombie, but I can't finish "Best Served Cold" and I can't read the rest of books if I don't finish it first

          Best served cold really lent into the grimdark.

          Shattered Sea sounds cool.

            Compared to The First Law universe, it's for children, a nice read, but meh in comparison.

            Damn that third part of the first law was so amazing

              The third book of the first law trilogy or act 3 of book 1 which is entitled the first law?

              Either way both ruled. The latter is where the curtains really begin to peel back and the former just hits so hard.

              If you can ever find a way past the blockage in BSC, the next book is excellent and Red Country is basically deadwood.

                The third book, the one which ends reavealing

                spoiler

                Bayaz is thoroughly fucking evil and a banker on top of it

                That shit is almost agitprop

                  I read it before I was a lefty and even then it just made sense. Even to a person without the political framework to see that, the characterization and whatnot is so good that the reader arrives at a similar place.

              I tried the first book in the first law series and thought it was fine. Does it really pick up at the second or third? Or can I just move on to the standalone book I've heard was good?

                Read the second and third else you'll be completely lost cuz the stories are very intertwined

    I mean, I dated a few witches back in the day but all the sage burning fucked with my allergies and their crystals hurt like hell to step on

    Nah, the good stuff is setting up with Hellenistic pagans

    Maybe if you got rid of that old yee-yee ass beard you got you'd get some witches on your dick. Oh, better yet, maybe Morrigan’ll call your dog-ass if she ever stop fuckin' with that archmage or cleric she fucking with
