In the final Book Club for The Waste Lands we truly see what the titular Waste Lands really are as our Tet is hurling faster than the speed of sound in Blaine the Mono. Also Jake reveals his suspicion (correct suspicion) that Blaine is going to kill himself. Blaine reveals his role in serving Lud as a god, including killing people. Blaine demands Riddles and Roland responds with "fuck you" and gives us one of his greatest monologues so far. Then Blaine sets the game if he can't solve one of their riddles he will let them live, but if they can't stump him they will die with him. Then the game begins... just as the novel ends.
