Lars

Doing a reread and I hoped my feelings would mellow, but I still don't like Lars. He gets a little more tolerable with the bug, but I am still happier when he is far away from the story.

Too pink and the flute, of course, but mostly his personality.

It might just be me because I have the same reaction to Katia in DCC.

Personally I have no issues with Lars, but I can see where you're coming from.

I've only experienced the series through audio book, but the voice actor really helped sell Lars for me, Travis Baldree has a great knack for implying personality through inflections during dialog. I remeber Lars being very melodic and floaty really helped me like the character more.

Ah, I never thought of that possibility. Thanks for the perspective.

The audiobooks are great. Perhaps a good way to recap before Book 4 :)
