Yep, I know.
That would be nuts and insane as this forum if there were.
I think the new book will be a bit of a disappointment compared to the other two. Not that those weren't a disappointment. :D
Hmm...wonder what Post would do if he saw this...

Duly observed.

I think they must have taken the idea from Dante's nine levels of Hell.

Hmm, apparently it's not just in the Forgotten Realms, but some of the other campaign settings too.

What's Dante's Inferno?

Thanks.

Part of the epic poem Divine Comedy by Dante, in which he visits Hell, Purgatory and Heaven, Inferno being the part in which he visits Hell.

Is it good? Did you actually read it?

I read/flipped through the Coles notes because the books looked way too long.

Hell no.

Although the damn book is schedualed for a midnight release, so I might end up at the store with my parents that night.

Who the hell could possibly like that book enough to buy it at midnight?

Correction, who the hell could possibly like that book?

Nine circles of Hell, Sent my dear, nine circles.

I completely obsessed with The Divine Comedy, unfortunately I am only halfway through Purgatorio, damn exams...
I say night I'm living in the forest of my dream,
I know the night is not as it would seem,
I must believe in something,
So I'll make myself believe it,
That this night will never go.

Sure, there's nine circles in Inferno, but that wasn't what I was referencing.

Bah. I know. Can I help it if I'm addicted to the classics?
