How would that have changed history with him on the throne as King James III/VIII? Bonnie prince charlie would succeed after him and the country would most likely become Catholic. But how would King Charles III have handled the american revoloution and how different would Britain be today.

With the Pistons' season reaching its final days, no game may be more important to the franchise's longterm future than tonight's against Minnesota. Of course, the ping-pong balls may not do Detroit any favors -- and then none of this matters -- but a loss to the Timberwolves sets the Pistons up for the best odds of turning the franchise back into a relevant one. Detroit has an intriguing young core and a breakout veteran in Jerami Grant. What's it missing? A big-time scorer with star potential. James L. Edwards III has been covering the Pistons for The Athletic since September of 2017. He's a native of Flint, Michigan, and attended Michigan State University. He’s here to answer all your questions about the Pistons as they gear up to face Minnesota in the Tankathon Super Bowl on Tuesday night. AMA!

THAT'S ALL FROM ME FOLKS. This was a blast. Truly appreciate everyone who took time out to come hangout. The support was overwhelming. Got to finish up this Saddiq Bey story (check The Athletic tomorrow) before tonight's Super Bowl. Stay safe.
My dad passed a few years ago and we would like to honor him with our next child’s name without actually using the names James or Edward. He also went by Jim and Jimmy pretty often. A friend of mine suggested Jae as a middle name which I love but I’m struggling to come up with some other options. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

BULLETPROOF WITCH: BEGINNINGS (Book 1-4) by Francis James Blair is a collection of the first four novels of the Bulletproof Witch series. I know, what a surprise. I really enjoyed this book collection, which is on the lighter side of reading with each book being just under two hundred pages and very easy to finish in a single day. As such, I encourage readers to just buy the collection and read it as a single volume rather than picking up each individual one.
The premise is that in a Wild West fantasy setting, Temperance Whitecloak is a Pistol Witch. Pistol Warlocks are individuals similar to hexslingers from Deadlands. They use magically engraved bullets that allow them to produce a variety of mystical effects on their enemies. Unlike the hexslingers of Deadlands, all the Pistol Warlocks are supposed to use their hand-engraved bullets tio hunt daemons. Temperance is quite appalled to discover that her orthodox way of living the life of a monster hunter is not practiced as universally or as devotedly as she, herself, does.
In typical fantasy revenge story fashion, Temperance's hometown of Cold Valley is massacred by an army of daemons with her as the only survivor. Climbing on top of her talking horse, Astor, she sets out on a mission to hunt down and destroy the daemons' leader, Varconis, and avenge her family. It's just somewhat hurt because no one but a handful of demons have seemingly ever heard of Varconis and it's not like he's left a forwarding address.
Each of the novels within the omnibus is a self-contained adventure with the premise of Temperance trying to inch closer to her goal of revenge. Most of the time, she's less concerned with progressing her quest than the ever-present issue of money. Hexbullets cost a lot of her job is either a feast or a famine in terms of how much she's paid for bringing in slain daemons. This adds a nice level of grounding to the story as her goals remain strictly pragmatic.
I like the idea of doing a fantasy Western in a world divorced from our own and Francis James Blair does a good job of replicating the Wild West without strictly following Earthly history. There's some areas that I'm not 100% down with like the fact that there's no Native American equivalents and the continent was abandoned when the settlers arrived. Still, it is a pretty detailed but not obtrusive history that talks about the settlement of the world as well as its frontier-esque population.
