I know everybody is in a state of excited anticipation for the next novel in the Rant series, but where do you think Chuck will take it? Personally, I'm hoping for a battle of immortals with Rant, Chester, and Echo on the side of good and Tina, Green Talyor Simms, and Waxman on the side of evil. That would be badass.

I thought he said somewhere that Rant wasn't going to be a trilogy..

I read in an interview that he was. I hope he does. This has got to be one of my favorite books of all time.

I'd imagine if he does a trilogy it'll be in the sense that it takes place in that same "world" with the daytimers and night-timers and whatnot and maybe feature one of the supporting characters. But it won't have Rant in it.

If it doesn't have flying exploding dildos or people getting shock-paddle-fused during sex, it's a step in the right direction.

How was Snuff? That's the only book I haven't read other than Fugitives and Refugees

Oh well, I'll still read it. I've got nothing else to do with my down-time at work.

Yes, well, better books are available. My father is an English teacher and we have more books than most libraries in the surrounding areas, but I like to read what I want to read when I want to read it. If that makes any sense. I guess I'm sort of a media snob, in that I read one book by a certain author and if I like it, I will read all the books by that author before I move on. If I don't like it, it may take a few years before I get back to that particular author.

I really love Rant, but I hope he doesn't do any sequels or prequels or whatever.

It stand as it is and is a great book. Leave well enough alone is what I say.
