Finishing
I finished two things yesterday - watching Rurouni Kenshin, and reading Runes of the Earth by Stephen Donaldson.
Years ago, when I was in the midth of a "nervous breakdown", I came across the first two trilogies and read them from start to finish. It sounds silly, but the issues in the books that Thomas Covenant and Linden Avery faced (all about despair and courage and life) were very relevant to me. Reading those books made a difference and helped me move through that period.
I knew that there'd be a third series, and so far I'm not disappointed with the first book. It returns to a mythos that I know well. I'll be eagerly awaiting the next one - Fatal Revenant.

The Rape Scene...
The point was, that though he made mistakes and totally fucked up, he could still be redeemed, still change for the better.
