Talk about re-reading the chrons again and again! We are in some pretty fast company in this discussion board! I've forgotten how enjoyable book discussions are! And this one is particularly provoking! So many people with so much love for this story - I thought I was the only one! How silly of me! :...

I think that LA got her health sense from the fact that she was not of the Land. The Sunbane had warped the Land so that it was unhealthy. The people of the Land didn't know the Land any other way. TC couldn't feel it because no hurtloam was available. But I agree with what was earlier stated - that...

Let's not forget that our Creator has rules to follow also. For example, He cannot work in our lives without our permission. I believe that this is a common enough belief in many christian religions. That is our freedom of choice given to us by God himself. So when you say that our Creator would not...

Has anyone ever thought that - on another level - that LF is actually TC's leporsy. Despite = disease. Linden could not fight or cure a disease that has no cure. Maybe TC was really facing his own mortality when he finally faced LF. In actuality, he had to face his disease and succomb to it in order...

It is a very good topic of conversation, however, when it does turn religious, people can get a little strange - or shall I say passionate - about their views. Anyway, LF was imprisoned by the AoT by the Creator but the Land was NOT intended as a prison. If I recall correctly, the story goes that th...

Bannor - your daughter's work is wonderful! I agree with you about compliments of a person's child! There is no better reflection on you than someone making a positive comment about one of your kids! My son (11 years old) is also quite the artist. It would be fortunate if he did half as well as your...

Thank goodness! All this talk about Haruchai and Klingons was starting to scare me! But even still, the Klingons of old, at least, never appeared to me as being honor-driven. They were too aggressive and vicious to have honor. The Bloodguard, however, are definitely honor-driven. I don't know! What ...

When TC goes into Andelain and meets his dead, I got the impression that Lord Morham kind of sends TC on the quest for the One Tree and tells him that in the end, he will need to return to the Land. TC returns to the Land because (and forgive me because I cannot find my copy of TOT to look up my inf...

Very cool pics. The first I've seen - other than the book covers which, in my opinion, are not very accurate (I especially hate WGW paperback cover showing TC and LA looking fearlessly over the Land). I also, however, always pictured Kevin's Watch to have a spiraling staircase. Otherwise I think it ...

Maybe I'm over-simplifying things but what is wrong with a name being short and to the point? Ok - so it is a little trite - Lord Foul - but it is concise! Now, about what Foul's name was during Kevin's time - maybe SRD didn't feel it was important to the story to say what Foul was named as a lord. ...

The Vow was fueled by Earthpower however, I believe that the Haruchai also had an innate strength of body and character that enabled them to succeed (or eventually fail?) at their vow. Was Earthpower asleep in the 2nd Chronicles? or possibly warped? Maybe - but the Haruchai in the 2nd Chron had to h...
