So my lame (usually cool) library has finally gotten it's hypothetical paws on a few copies of Crystal City and later this afternoon I get to go pick it up (since I was number 1 on the waiting list [Big Grin] ).

I know the first six chapters were serialized here and of course I read them all as soon as they were updated. My question is did you re-read the chapters, or skip them, and what do you think I should do?

And for those that think this belongs on the other side: [Razz]
I want fast answers since I will be picking it up in a few hours.

READ THEM! It's an easy read anyway -- and helps get you back "in the story" again...

There were some minor changes here and there. It depends on how obsessed you are. The Lincoln character was a lot better. I think it was a lot different from reading it serialized.

If only for the sake of re-reading chapter two....

Please feel free to express your opinions and what you did, but I have definitely made up my mind.

Pooka, for the sake of obsessiveness alone, I would do it. I used to not think I was obsessed with reading OSC, and then I sat down and counted (thanks to the "which OSC books have you read" thread) and realized if I didn't admit to it I was in full scale denial of my OSC obsession.

What makes it hard is when you have read everything you want to read and then have to wait for the author to finish writing the next one.

Kicking a crippled man? Honestly...
