We, The Infected

I'm talking about what I've read online. And going by the movie. I haven't gotten far in the book. But, it's still a fact that Eli is a castrated male. In the novel, this is a fact. In the movie, it is not. The novel and the movie are closely related, but still separate works of fiction. For many o...

"Oskar, I'm no girl", she tells him. She implies it once behind the kiosk, and flatly states it in his room. ... but what is she really saying? In the novel, while the two are sharing a blanket, she says something like "I'm not a girl, and not a boy. Not young, not old. I'm nothing". I haven't got ...

I only think Eli can be thought of as a girl, because of the way he dresses. I read a theory about that, that says it's a way to appear weak to others, making it easier, when it comes to finding someone to feed from.

This link returns a 404 for me. What is it?

Drakkar, where in Fantasy have you been!?

I personally believe it'd be grossly unfair to newcomers to require that they canvas the entire forum before commenting. You want to bring up old stuff? I say "DO IT"! You never know when somebody is going to scare up something new . I would also note that this is the Internet, where people drift in...

I read the whole thing. Very good thoughts on Eli vs Abby. As for this statement, I feel the same way. Eli kept his heart, and the ability to care for, and about, others. And Abby didn't? I don't believe so. Not as much. I guess she was written to care about Owen. But, does she care about him, the ...
