  1. It feels to me like we’re going a bit slowly. What do people think about reading two sections (7 and 8) for next week?Report

  2. The timing is interesting. It took months for the army to make it across, advancing, creating caches of food and water, going back for fresh supplies, and advancing a bit further each time.

    Is that how it happened? I thought it was advance, leave caches of food and water for the next group, die of starvation and dehydration, get replaced by the next group.Report

    1. The army seems like a pretty cynical group. I don’t think they’d accept a suicide mission for the greater glory of Om. The book does say that a third of them died, but I assumed that was due to heat stroke, sandstorms, camels dying, etc.Report
