'Do you need to turn around?' 'No, I'm good,' Sam said. 'Let's stay out a little longer.'  They had made it up to Ninety-ninth Street and Amsterdam Avenue. Sam pointed up to a tenement building with exterior fire escapes. 'This is where my mom and I used to live. Seventh Floor. Back in 1984, it was a rough part of town, but now it doesn't look that bad to me.'  'There aren't any rough parts of New York now.'  Sadie looked up at the building. She imagined a child Sam, gazing out the window at her. He is perfect and unmarked, like her own daughter. But if Sam hadn't been as traumatized as Sadie now realized he had been, would he have pushed them so hard? Would Sadie have been the designer she became without Sam's ambitions for them? And would Sam have had those ambitions without the childhood trauma? She didn't know. The work had been hers, yes, but it had equally been his. It had been theirs, and it wouldn't have existed without the both of them. This was a tautology that had only taken her the better part of two decades to understand.  Since she'd started teaching and become a mother, she'd felt old, but that night, she realized she wasn't old at all. You couldn't be old and still be wrong about as many things as she'd been wrong about, and it was a kind of immaturity to call yourself old before you were.  She looked past the building to the sky. It was a deep, blue velvet night, and the moon hung heavy and supernaturally spherical in the sky.  'I wonder who built this engine,' Sadie said.  'It's good work,' Sam said. 'The God rays are nicely done, but the moon is almost too beautiful. The scale seems off.'  'How is it so large and low? And it needs more texture. A bit of Perlin noise. It should look a little rougher, otherwise it doesn't seem real.'  'But maybe that's the look they were going for?' 'Maybe so.'

One of these days, I want to write a book or a book series that, when the reader finishes the book, they immediately want to start it over (or want the next book right that very second) just so they can go on the journey again and spend more time with the characters.

This post is about He Who Fights With Monsters book six. Actually, it's just about the whole series and wishing for the same amount of determination and ability in editing (and getting the right help) to write something of that caliber.
