A Funny Story about my Avatar

Thanks for the compliments on my avatar, but it's just one I picked from the site gallery. I had a different avatar until a few days ago... I picked my original avatar because I liked the look of it: a knight kneeling in service to the Lord. Here's the pic: kevinswatch.ihugny.com/phpBB2/images/avata...

I liked Linden

I thought she was a sympathetic character, having had such a difficult background. I agree that she was out of line when she verbally assaulted Covenant's dead. However, TC should have confided in Linden and told her what he intended to do (IMO). I always thought that this was one of the recurring t...

Who I would like as Thomas Covenant

I think Edward Norton has the acting chops to pull it off, but is too boyish-looking.

Maybe Guy Pearce would be my choice.

Re: Those Odd Words

I always liked SRD's color descriptions: "lambent", "argent", "sable", "viridian", "incarnadine", etc. I don't know how many times I had to pause in the middle of the Chronicles and go look up one of his word choices. I'm currently reading the Gormen...

Definitely Incompetent

I was recently rereading a part of The Illearth War that adds evidence to this thread. I don't have the text here with me now, but it's when Troy is telling Amorine that they have to march on from Doriendor Corishev and she asks him why they can't stick to his former plan. He replies that Foul's arm...

My take on reality of the Land

This is a favorite subject of mine to think about regarding the Chronicles. I followed the link and there's been a lot of interesting debate on the topic! I'll chime in with my view. I always felt that the First Chronicles did a pretty good job of keeping the Land's reality ambiguous. In the other t...

Re: I like Linden

I think it is a theme that resurfaces again and again. But I guess it's also a story device. Ostensibly, the location of the One Tree or the purpose of Vain were not revealed because t would cause the desired ends to not occur, but I'm not sure if SRD is trying to make a point about the withholding ...

What If questions about the end of the Second Chronicles

I have a couple of What If questions I've been thinking about regarding the end of White Gold Wielder. I've developed some opinions over time, but I'm not married to them, and am interested in hearing the opinions of others. Also, I apologize if these questions have already been debated here long be...
