=== Mollus Darkblade Recommendation (02:04) ===

[00:00:06]  Greetings you proud sons of Rome.
[00:00:08]  Today I have a quick book recommendation.
[00:00:10]  I've talked about it in the past, but we have here Mollus Darkblade.
[00:00:15]  Now this is the latest book actually come out this year in February.
[00:00:18]  I haven't read it yet for some reason.
[00:00:20]  I've been in my other cultural stack at the moment.
[00:00:23]  I read the first Mollus Darkblade.
[00:00:26]  Like that, actually when I was in the army.
[00:00:28]  That was the first fancy book that wasn't Lord of the Rings.
[00:00:31]  I was like, okay, cool, I'm gonna give fantasy a shot here.
[00:00:35]  And I'm so glad I did.
[00:00:36]  I fucking loved the book.
[00:00:38]  Now obviously it is in the Warhammer world and I've been into Warhammer quite some time.
[00:00:43]  So I got another perspective at it and I love Elvis obviously.
[00:00:47]  He is a dark elf right here.
[00:00:48]  The reason I'm talking about this book right here is the kind of mentality he portrays in the book.
[00:00:55]  He basically goes around half dead the entire book just pushing through hardship after hardship.
[00:01:03]  It is rather nice, especially if you're cutting, I recommend you to read this.
[00:01:07]  Especially then because it is kind of a feel-good book despite the fact that he is fucking crazy, he's like insane, just goes around killing stuff and you know are half dead the entire book.
[00:01:22]  A great adventure book as well.
[00:01:24]  He is like, you know, insane in his mind, but that only adds to the charm of it.
[00:01:29]  He's the ultimate anti-hero as it were.
[00:01:32]  But I can definitely recommend it if you're into fantasy and if you're cutting or you know struggling with Jim or something.
[00:01:41]  Just based on the kind of mentality he portrays.
[00:01:44]  The never give up, always push through, disregard weakness, acquire fucking brutality, that kind of mentality.
[00:01:52]  So that's why I love that book and then it's very very well written as well.
[00:01:58]  An instant classic.
[00:01:59]  So for me that's kind of my Bible, a great role model for myself as it were.
[00:02:04]  So quick book advice right there, Mollus Darkblade.
[00:02:09]  And what kind of elf am I?
