I just finished it today and am so mad he hasn't finished the trilogy. Don't read it if you are like me and can't stand to leave something unfinished. I didn't know going in that it was unfinished. I just assumed it was a 2 part books. Now I want to cry thinking about it.

I liked the book when I read it a few years back. I laughed at the pajama top.

Hmmm... perhaps. Didn't even check until now.
The version I read and liked was translated by Michael Glenny and published in paperback in the early 70s.
Another version I have (picked up at a library booksale because the Glenny is deteriorating and old) is from 1989 and translated by H.T. Willetts. It is longer as it has additional narrative written/added after AS had been expelled from Russia, dealing more with revolutionary activities before the war. I don't vouch for this version as I haven't read it.

sounds like they are aware that the bible has lots of sexual content: incest, rape, onanism, etc

Reply to Would Lord of the Flies be the same story if it was boys and girls stranded on the island instead of just boys? by Ill_Definition8074
Of course things would still go to hell with both boys and girls on the island. It's not like having girls on the island would suddenly turn it into a peaceful, harmonious utopia. Human nature is savage and violent, and when you add in a life or death struggle for survival, all bets are off. Men and women are equally capable of violence and destruction, just different modus operandi.

But does music correlate to genres for books?
So for example, what genre would Fall Out Boy connect with?

The Wilds as well is another option tackling exactly the premise: what happens if the stranded are all girls vs what happens if they are all boys. Sadly cancelled, but the idea was quite good

Looking for old cover art or any info on it π (Blood leaf series books 2 & 3) Crystal Smith
So I really do love this book series... An maybe I'm being too picky π but I can't get over the change to the cover art after the first book... I like my books to at least match in a sense whether on my bookshelf and you will cover art just looks better to me. Plus the first book I bought has the old cover art... I feel bad bc ik the author really likes the new cover art better... An some places show the old cover art with a new book store you can buy it that I've already tried some of those places and I've already gotten scammed because the books I buy are not the old cover art it's the new cover... Does anyone on here happen to know where I can get the old cover art for both the books Greythorne an Ebonwilde?
