Marvin, tell me a snippet about Carrion Comfort. I read horror, sci fi and fantasy exclusively; nothing else makes my brain "work." I have a whole collection of vampire books, including Stoker's original Dracula novel. My favorite of all time so far is Jeanne Kalogridis's trilogy "Dia...

That 70's show. Sorry, it was my era and brought back some grand memories. Chukka boots, the advent of foreign cars into American society, flower power, Led Zeppelin, Peter Frampton, etc., tight disco pants, roller skating, "the circle," I could go on and on. I loved Hyde and Red the most....

I've been trying to justify you
In the end I will just deny you
To those who understand
I exend my hand
To the doubtful I demand
Take me as I am

I just joined the Watch, so I had no idea. Now I know and it is firmly ingrained in my brain. I know he won't get this, but SRD, I hope your birthday was grand. Thank you for bringing me the most joy I have ever found elsewhere in the world of reading. Of all the tens of thousands of authors on eart...

Move over Lord Foul, I'm coming in right after you. I saw a tidbit on one of the entertainment shows about this a few weeks ago. I researched online until my surfing fingers bled. Last word is the movie is a no-go. But Damon? Uh uh. I'd NOT go see that. Unknowns. Yes. Like TNG. I didn't expect anyth...

Reading, for the umpteenth time, ALL the TC books. Am into number four now; will be done with all six (don't own ROTE yet, but have read it from the library) in a couple of weeks. I devour books. Can't get enough of the TC chronicles. I believe SRD is a genius, but just wish I didn't need a dictiona...

In ROTE, Linden should have been old enough to be in the throes of menopause. She would not have needed a Staff of Law, Earth-sight, a doctor's degree, orcrest, a white gold ring, Earthpower, NOTHING. Being in the mere proximity of a woman in that condition would have all enemies begging for quick, ...

"Bump for Rocksister"? Rocksister is here and interested in EVERYTHING TC-related. If I missed this one (it takes a lifetime to read every post from day one, and I'm totally new here), I own a study Bible and in front of it, it contains some Jewish translations. They list Elohim as meaning...

I'm a newbie; I haven't read all the gradual interviews at SRD's site. Guess I'd better break myself in right proper and head on over there. Thanks, Watchers.

I have a birthday next week and will turn 50, so that makes me, uh, let me get the abacus out, uh, 58 in 2014?? My ex-sister-in-law, God bless her forever, loved SF and fant, and had read LFB and let me borrow it. I was insanely addicted immediately. This was the late 70's. We kept reading what came...

Speaking of the words of power; the books say there are seven; I count six. Am I reading them wrong? Melenkurion abatha! Duroc minas mill khabaal! If anyone want to look, in the paperback edition of Power That Preserves from 1993, page 352, about four paragraphs down, where Mhoram has entered the Ra...

Wow, I feel so WELCOME here! Thanks everyone. I checked and I DON'T have Daughter of Regals. YIKES!!! Must buy NOW. So I guess I never saw the Korik story. Amazon, here I come!!! And also going to start a hardback collection of ALL SRD's TC books. So far only have OLD paperbacks. Pitiful; I've read ...

Thanks for the welcome, Jwaneeta. Usivius, I am going to kick myself. I have Daughter of Regals, as well as all SRD's books except the Axbrewder series. (Read one, didn't care for it. ) I will dig it back out (DOR) and read Korik's mission story. I also read a collection of SRD's short stories, but ...

Thanks, Danlo. Your hospitality honors me. In accepting it, I give honor to the giver. I have to ask; what is this show you want to come back? I'm sure I'll kick myself when you tell me; your sig sounds awfully familiar. I had the First of the Search in mind when looking for an avatar; aiming for a ...

Newb here. SRD fan since the 70's but just found this site. Great resource for learning what has or could happen. I'm into something like my tenth reading of the six TC books. I read the 7th a couple of months ago; when I heard it would be next fall at least before 8 was out, I 'bout cried. Talk abo...

marshm, was just about to post about actors for TC, saw your post. This is first post for me; just found this site. SRD my fave author. Into tenth reading of the first 6 TC books. Can't get tired of them. Gary Oldman is one of the finest actors on the planet, or in the galaxy. Hugh Laurie's current ...
