At least he's not from Russia...

huh? what's that got to do with it. full blooded american here, and not poor grammer, but really lousy typing skills...

hey, had to ask...you know what it is? i just always swore if i ever saw a woman reading these books on the bus, i would go right up and start talking to her...mind you i do anyway (am a pig after all 8) ) but it would just be great if it was because of something like this, which is a huge thing for...

i am so going to catch flack for this...but any women from New York, NY into TC?

i should preface by saying that i believe that in the real world, rapists should be executed (yeah, i'm real conservative) and to make it worse, i assumed lena was a virgin, and believe that raping a virgin is even worse (just as in taking a life it is an act that cannot be undone). HOWEVER...i alwa...

i don't see it happening. please do not get all up in arms, i would like to, but don't see it. first off, lot's of narrative dialog. i think that's what made the books so great! SRD could write three pages worth of text just describing someone lifting a spoon from a bowl to their mouth. and he does ...

bodice rippers

what's that?

not sure, and too lazy to get up and get the book....there was some mention about him falling under "its" spell. and that when he approached it to finally go under, he had to try to avoid falling under the spell again... but i would swear they made it clear that it was the "its" ...

Sergio, ultimately it's up to SRD to say whether or not he made a gaffe here. I recommend you ask him directly in the Gradual Interview at his website.

i did, can only hope it gets selectec

so wait, what is anyone familiar with the scheduled release dates for all other three books?

haven't started "runes" yet as i decided to readed the first six first, just to refresh my memory of minute details. but at my current rate will be there in no time!

i hate waiting....

Hello all, Sergio from New York City! Let's see, first read the books in high school, and since then, as many of you have, have read them multiple times.
