He may or may not be able to communicate with the Greek gods.
I'm still dual reading Musashi by Endo and Mason & Dixon by Pynchon. Haven't been able to read as much as I hoped so far this summer. Back to Malazan when I'm done with those.

It's not all that frequent that I come across more than a word or two with which I am not familiar while reading but boy does Wolfe change all that.
I'm back in Malazaan now. Gonna' finish 'em off now. I think.
