5. France?
8. Mindless or not?
17. I like it as well. Gets less weird looks than Theodred.
19. What do you think so far? It's not an easy read.

5 - heavens no! It is widely popular throughout much of Eastern Europe. I myself, am Hungarian.
8 - mindless? Like a zombie?
19 - I have been kept quite busy, so I have only read the first 50 pages. I'll get back to you when I am a bit further.

5. I didn't know that.
8. Zombie, some ghosts, skeletons, oozes, vampire spawn. Those are just off the top of my head.
19. All right. My namesake doesn't show up until the second book.

That I am Hungarian, or that people like to kiss cheeks? I'm sure this is not traditional in all areas but, our house is a melting pot of culture, one tends to pick up on these things.

It there a book about this? I am intrigued.

May I skip to book two or is book one important to the overall story?

That people like to kiss cheeks. And that you're Hungarian. So, both, I guess.

There are lots of books on the undead. Mindless and not.

Tolkien considered it to be one book. The publishers had him chop it into three because they weren't sure how well a book as big as it turned out to be would sell. Especially during war time when paper was scarce.

... I can't believe I know that.

But yeah, book one is important to the overall story. It's the set up.

Tell me which of the undead you find the most intriguing.

Liches, I think. They're usually old sorcerers who are afraid of dying so implant their soul into a gem or other valuable object called a phylactery. It turns them into a husk of a body but as long as the phylactery exists they can reform even if they're destroyed. But if the phylactery is destroyed they are too.

That is interesting indeed. I met a wizard once who could trap someones soul in a skull.
