Boards Archive] |
Welcome to the Vault Network
forum archive.
This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the
opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards
deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least
20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per
page).
Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50
topics per page, while others deemed of historical
signifigance may be archived in their entirety.
We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but
we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in
lieu of that.
Please enjoy the archive.

Subject:
I'm listening to Codex Alera on audiobook
|
and every 3 chapters or so I keep hearing a horn blowing. It's pretty random, but it is on both of the books I've read so far. I can't tell if it's a mistake or not. An example is,
(...Miles' older Brother
There was bad blood between them?
[Horns Blow]
They had a falling out...)
Is it intentional? Either way it's pretty annoying.
Also, I hate to say it, but I absolutely hate it when I read an audiobook and its a female narrator. I think it's because they have such a short range of characters before they reach ridiculousness. Every villain has to have a grating sinister voice. Any type of power or commanding tone just sounds campy. When James Marsters was reading Dresden Files, and he shouted Fuego! I could feel the booming command. When Kate Reading tries to put power in her voice, it's just bad... like cartoon villain, pull on my mustache, bad.
Maybe I'm just a fan of Marsters, but this ain't my only comparison I'm going by.

I don't typo often, but when I do, I blame Swype.
