Those two ladies are far from perfect but I love 'em and I can't even begin to imagine the Chronicles without 'em!

No way. Admittedly, it's hard to become enlightened when your entranced by Elohim. But Covenant's internal struggles are nonetheless large and critical. He has to learn to share responsibility for rescuing the Land; learn to love; learn to relinquish his innermost identity; learn to accept limitations (ironically); and ultimately learn how to leave his life. If anything, you might say that his struggles are no longer of an 'everyday joe' variety, as they were in the first Chronicles, and as such, they may be so elevated that we cannot perceive the changes so obviously.

Top point. TC and Linden were hardly on the same playing field at the start of the 2nd Chrons. TC had already won the Kick-The-Ass-Of-The Baddest-Ass-In The Universe World Cup when poor Linden was probably still at college, learning how to play pool. Give the lass a break, THOOLAH!

You're absolutely correct.
That's exactly right.
Completely agree.
Every character created by SRD has their merits, and they are all interesting people who all contribute to the series as a whole.

Except Linden. She's simply the Anti-Christ.
Hail THOOLAH!
