A. B.I'm not sure about any of this. Quite a long fantasy novel and probably written for children. Might have been a new one or an old one. The kingdom always had a King, a Queen and a Magician - or possibly it wasn't Queen, possibly it was King, Warrior and Magician, or something like that. When th...

Q: What was Bo-Katan's role in Death Watch?

Q: In what ways, if any, did Avengers: Age of Ultron foreshadow Avengers: Endgame?

Q: Is it okay to delete tags off of questions that the tags were created for if the tags will likely not become relevant?

Peter NielsenWhen going to the new tags page (a common place for me to look for tags to edit), lots of tags are vague and have been created on questions.

Q: Do people generally really read books in days or even hours?

SavourerI've always been in disbelief when people claim that it took them X hours to read book Y, or that they "read it in a week". Perhaps I'm the world's slowest reader, but that just seems insane to me. It's not a movie. So I made careful statistics when I read the last few books: Fellowship of the Ri...
