The Lafayette one has been on my books to buy list for awhile. She's an odd author, if you like lots of digressions, anecdotes, and modern day travelling to historical sites in among your history you might like her. She does a very good job making historical characters feel alive.

I do really enjoy her, and I've been searching for at least an audiobook reading of her other material but, alas, haven't found anything (for free (legally)). I suppose I could try out the other libraries in the area.

But from what I recall in her Lafayette book at least is that she admits to, and calls herself a visual historian of sorts. She doesn't write history solely on letters, diaries, and other records but has and will visit the relevant places to also include what might be learned there to add further depth, or add those little anecdotes that brings history forward.

You probably can't call her an academic historian in the same vein as others. But she at least makes it entertaining for people who are, or are not into history.

What's better is her dry voice adds a layer of casual sarcasm, since she performs her own audiobooks. If your uninitiated to her audio work, she voiced Violet in the Incredibles.

The applications of King Crimson are seemingly endless- I mean, think of the possibilities in your head. However, it can't do much outside of comhat. It is solely a combat-based stand, and not even a good one, as all it can do is dodge and sneak around. Much like Yoshikage Kira's stand is solely for assassinations. This presents an interesting duality in JoJo, after Stardust Crusaders, where the protagonists have stands that have more utility in their everday, normal lives, while the antagonists have stands that are only useful for their villainous lives. Compare Giorno's Gold Experience with Diavolo's King Crimson- Gold Experience (not even Requiem) is perfect for someone like Giorno, who could, rather than keeping up with the drug trade, start selling parts from rare animals he's made to the black market. Or helping the meat trade by creating large amounts of livestock for them to slaughter. Meanwhile, King Crimson can only murder people with its ability. Perfect for a mob boss who reigns by fear alone.

Are we absolutely sure that this isn't just from a Hunger Games or Divergent trailer?

But seriously, when the hell did fashion _{for rich people} get so ridiculous?

@Keyguyperson

When costume designers for sci-fi movies are RL fashion designers for legit clothing lines.
