That was exactly my reaction...and I've re-read it twice since. The 2nd time thru, you start catching little things early on that you can now see forshadow what is to come--very cool.

*snigger* I'm sorry, I just struggle to take Billie Piper seriously. I remember too much of her music career - including being caught miming her songs at a festival when the CD skipped. :lol:[/quote] I happened to see her in the new Dr Who series before I ever knew she was a singer, so I have a sli...

Hey all...Long time SRD fan, first-time poster... I'd like to re-iterate what other people have already said about The Gap Cycle. These books are NOT for the faint-of-heart, but they are definately worth it. I've re-read the entire series 3 times, and I find myself catching little things I didn't un...
