Thank you for your replies so far!

I don't regard Gator as a "newbie"! :biggrin:

I am no longer a cleaner, but full time carer, with a small income.

Meantime I have 2 websites and admin 1 forum for school alumni.

Of course I finished reading the Runes a long time ago!

The Runes are all very complicated, what with... ah see The Last Chronicles Forum!

Oh please...it's Menolly.

...although dlb may tell you otherwise... ;)

That avatar will be replaced at the end of college basketball season most likely (depending on how well the football and basketball teams do this year, a second football championship and a third basketball championship in a row is a bit much to hope for...right?).

No offense taken, Kerb. With the Edgetar I'm currently using, it is an easy error to make.

Hello Again!

Post by The Dreaming »

Hello old friends! I'm sure most of you don't remember me, but I read both Chrons in one fell swoop 3 or 4 years ago (it was about the time RotE came out) and was so entranced I joined this community for a while, at first just to get a few thoughts and questions out, but eventually I developed a genuine affection for many people in this community. (I've still got a few questions up on the gradual interview too)

Unfortunately, I moved on to other things after 9 months or so of fairly consistent posting. I've been back a couple of times briefly (coinciding with a re-reading of Mordant's Need and the Gap respectively) but my interest in the Land, I am ashamed to say, lapsed somewhat.

However all of this changed this week. The reason? My dad is a HUGE Covenant geek. (He’s actually posted here a time or two under the moniker mhorgel) Such a geek he ebayed an advanced copy of Fatal Revenant, which I just finished myself.

I will admit, I was fairly lukewarm on ROTE, but (I'm NOT going to spoil anything) FR makes ROTE read like a prologue. I haven’t been this excited about Covenant since I read the Wounded Land, and when I did that I had a copy of The One Tree sitting on my Nightstand) I am immensely excited about the Last Chronicles (finally), and I can assure you that those who are waiting for release are in for a serious treat.

Long story short, the dull ember of my interest in The Land has been rekindled; I have just started a reread of both Chronicles, and at least for now intend to become somewhat active in posting again.

To all you fans out there, old and new, GET PUMPED 'cause Fatal Revenant KICKS ASS!!!

Edit: Moved the thread from the Covenant forum, I've been away too long :)

Well met! I don't think we have, I'm pretty sure I stopped posting around 6 months or so after my join date, with the most of my posting in the month after I joined. The people I remember the best are Avatar (I spent a LOT of time in his forums) and the guy who's avatar was Bowie in Labyrinth :)

Ah, that would be JemCheeta, who hasn't been around much either.

He drops in every now and then though. Has been recently again in fact. :D

Well well well...will wonders never cease. Funnily enough, I was reading a post of yours the other day and wondering what ever became of you. :D

(You know about the Fatal Revenant Forum, right? Just send SeaReach or Dlb a PM and they'll give you access to it.)

Good to have you back man. The 'Tank is still there, despite Jay's numerous threats. ;) Just click the link in my sig and it'll be as though you never left. ;)

Hiyahs peoples... I am someone who was a "most unwilling student" of Donaldson at first. Those books sure give me alot of fascinating meat to chew on, and characters to interact with.

Yeahh...
"People without hope not only don't write novels, but what is more to the point, they don't read them.
They don't take long looks at anything, because they lack the courage.
The way to despair is to refuse to have any kind of experience, and the novel, of course, is a way to have experience."
-Flannery O'Connor

"In spite of much that militates against quietness there are people who still read books. They are the people who keep me going."
-Elisabeth Elliot, Preface, "A Chance to Die: The Life and Legacy of Amy Carmichael"
