I love the way SRD portrait the women in TCTC! With most characters it almost feels like gender was determined a long time after the character had developed. I like that kind of writing: not letting the gender determine what kind of character it will be and thereby not falling into a lot of sexistic...

Darn. I thought you were discussing the Michael Palin version and rushed to open this thread. I have not seen the movie/TV-series on the Jules Verne work. But the NICE Michael Palin one is great!

Good points... Still not convinced in any direction though... Another silly idea: Of course we have all considered that Covenant might acctually be Berek*. But without the white Gold (since Linden took care of the ring for him) - that would explain why he is a seer and oracle at least (most people f...

I detest all burning of books, even if it nowadays mayby is not possible to eradicate them (but was that ever possible?). I find book burning one of the more obvious symptoms of a society in trouble where parts of the population feel that they have to force their ideas on others. We talked about thi...
