The Sentinel (The Sundering, #5) by Troy Denning [The Sundered Book Club]



My Good Reads book club is reading the most recent book in the Sundering series from Wizards of the Coast.

This book is so fast paced it is almost scary--likely not worth picking up if you have not already read the other titles--but if you have been playing along this is a Great Fifth Book--really moves things along very quickly.

My original understanding was that Sundering was supposed to correct a lot of the Forgotten Realms chaos created by the 4th Edition Spell Plague stuff, but in actually it is doing a lot more to clarify and correct some of the issues with the FR Pantheon going a lot further back.

A fun read & I really encourage everyone to join in the Good Reads discussion.

We started the night at Chipotle--again. Jack had a blow out.


DM Brian was able to get all of the salsa for his chips


He was in fine form at the table tonight


Jack was ready to run


His Dwarf with Maul archetype is really working out--unless he gets one punched. 



Richard is a very funny player--some great stuff out of him this week



Scott is back from Israel. His Monk Wizard is some amazing 5E min/maxing



I posted up on the corner--a four person Encounters session is a dream come true!



I had plenty of room to run my monk.



The other table is further along in the story then we are--and seem to be having a whole lot of fun.



The shop did not have any War Gamers tonight & seemed a lot less crowded.



Our table was all smiles.




 As we headed into more Gnoll Killing--we did also find a Red Wizard of Thay



Some great mini action



Scott's is very classic


Grian uses Dice for Gnolls.



My ninja & Scott's Monk getting the beat down on the boss

Jack & I picked up Tom and his Kids and their significant others & headed to first weekend of Faire on Sunday.

First Stop was to get some new Juggling sticks


I picked up a very cheap set for 20 bucks just to have some.

Then we headed over to seen WOW, who is not the not greatest Knot wizard.


He was awesome.

Jack and I shared some Cheese Fries which were amazing


Then we went to the Joust. We were in a party section and it was awesome.



One of the best things I saw at Faire this year was these Bug Wing Ear Wings:
