With that kind of momentum it’s hard to imagine the franchise ending anytime soon - despite complaints from those who are dismayed by the abundance of Fire Emblem representation in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. In fact, a rumor started by Nintendo leaker Zippo earlier this month suggests a Fire Emblem remake is in development for Switch, though nothing has been officially confirmed by Nintendo nor Intelligent Systems. If something does come to pass, it would behoove the game to build off one of Three Houses’ defining features: The Garreg Mach Monastery hub area....

That doesn’t even count all the verbiage it generates internally in its frantic attempts to explain itself to the user....

But Auslander is done hiding from him. And he’s struck back with “Foreskin’s Lament,” his blasphemous and funny new memoir of growing up in an ultra-Orthodox community in upstate New York. Though the writer ultimately flees the faith, he still hasn’t escaped his tormentor. In fact, he’s expecting a thunderbolt to singe him any minute now. As he writes in the book, “I believe in God.

“Moby-Dick” by Herman Melville. It’s a book I reread every 10 years, which is coming up again. I even love the whale parts. “Winter’s Tales” by Isak Dinesen.

This stood the world of children’s picture books on its head in 1963....
