Come on in and tell us more about yourself. IMPORTANT: For new members, please read Hey all - I've lurked around here a few times so I'd better show my face. I'm not sure how much I'll be able to post, but I'm a huge fan of SRD and have been ever since my Mum bought me a copy of 'The Power that Preserves' when I was ten. I know - but she meant well, and I read the other two First Chronicles afterwards. Since then I've been through everything SRD I've been able to find. I think The Illearth War is probably my favourite novel of all time, bar none.
Anyways - hey.

Hey there steppy, welcome to Kevins Watch. Be true. 
You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.
In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.
He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.

Hail! Welcome to the Watch, steppy!

Hiya, this is a fantastic site, but don't you just hate your first post on a new forum. It's like walking into a party and everyone stops talking, turns around stares. Waiting on you to eaither impress them or make a fool of yourself. . . . . .imagine I've tripped, upset a table of drink and I'm now sitting in a dish of coleslaw.
Nature is bountiful in the supply of fools

Hail! And Welcome Sunder and Man on Mowgli! (Hmmm...looks like we'll all be talking to "MoM" at the Watch!)

New to Kevin's Watch
I first read Thomas Covenant in the early 80's. I read all the way through to The Wounded Land but had to wait for The One Tree and White Gold Wielder to be published. I was at Waldenbooks when they opened for both releases. I'm re-reading for the fifth (I think) time to prepare for The Last Chronicles. I have The Runes of the Earth but wanted to do the re-read first. I'll have to watch out for spoilers. Do you mark posts with spoiler warnings? I noticed one of the boards has a warning but I was wondering if individual posts there have warnings. I've been afraid to even read the topic headers in there.
