He also seemed almost superhumanly competent, If I could be any character from any book I've ever read it would be him.
NAh... I like holt so much more... :P

Yes, welcome, Judith. By all means, reread them! My very favorite series.

I wouldn't or couldn't want to be Morn -- she gets too much thrown at her. But if you're up to the challenge of relating to Morn, go for it! She deserves it!

Thanks Dragonlily,

I dont think anyone would want to be Morn... knowing what she has to go through... but I think we could all relate to who she was at the beginning and for me personally... Im not sure I would make all the same decissions she did... but I know one thing... I'd still be alive and kicking in book five :D .

As to reading them again... Im in bad situation... I just found this site and I am excited!!! Unfortunately... I last read the chronicals of Thomas Convenant in the mid 80's and the Gap series in the mid 90's and I want to read every single one again right now so I can really relate to this site... so much great reading... so little time :cry:

hmmm... Thomas Covenant------- the Gap .... hmmm
I dont think I can choose which one I liked better. I loved them both.

I just gotta say that after all these years of quietly loving Stephen Donaldsons work... its great to find this place and to feel that I am not alone :D Thanks so much |G

How about relating to the chiseled, sensuous features of Ur-Vile's avatar? :faint: He's the moderator of the Gap forum, so he counts, doesn't he?

Welcome to Kevins Watch Judith. It's a pleasure to be sure. :D
