It'd take you a long time to blow up or shoot all the sheep in this country, but one diseased banana...could kill 'em all.

I didn't even know sheep ate bananas.

O.K. I'll admit it,I wrote Runes. :oops:Too bad they edited out the part where the giants,Linden,a resurected Lord Mhoram,and Thomas Covenant sail on a Drommond to the Giants homeland out.I was also dissapointed that they had cut out the Sandgorgan scenes.They wanted me to save it for Fatal Revenant :cry: .

Yes the real story stars TC, and Linden can only be sumoned by uttering the creatures name:
"Mom."

:LOLS:

I think a conspiracy theory is necessary! All great things have conspiracy theories attached to them (some not so great things also have them).

Whether I believe you or not is a completely different matter! ;)

REUTERS - In a revelation that shook the fantasy readership to its core, the most recent book The Runes of the Earth by the esteemed author Stephen R. Donaldson was revealed to be ghostwritten by a fanwriter that goes under the alias "Nerdanel".

"I had great fun on the Internet literary forums," Nerdanel said. "I gained something of a reputation for my outlandish predictions of what would happen next. Little did the others know that I could make my predictions come true, as I have the contract for the entire tetralogy with an option for prequels and Mr. Donaldson has indicated that he is happy with my work."

However some of the fans have been less than pleased with the result. "Of course my style is going to be slightly different from Mr. Donaldson's," Nerdanel said. "After all, we are two different persons from radically different backgrounds. English isn't even my native language. Mr. Donaldson sends me lists of obscure words to include for erudite style. "Formication" for example. That was such a funny word that I may have used it a couple of times too many."

When asked what the future books would bring, Nerdanel was at first unwilling to provide illumination, but after being pressed told the readers to look forward to "Giants returning, but as cyborgs." She indicated that this would be only one surprise twist of many.

Stephen R. Donaldson refused to comment, citing the pressing need to level up his Night Elf hunter in the online computer game World of Warcraft.

LOL!
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.


Full of the heavens and time.
