[Suzerain of Sheol]

...I think I cried tears of joy when I finished Salvatore's Ghost King. About damned time he killed someone off, though, it seemed almost as if he was reacting to that criticism of his books and went a bit overboard, killing cast-members left and right.

Of course, he's pretty much cleansed the palette with his latest book and is working with a whole new cast of characters now. Not that that's doing him any favors...
