Well, Fatal Revenant had just come out.

I liked the thread called "is High Lord Elena Thomas Covenants daughter?" It beats the other 21 threads hands-down.

God, our forum rocks.

TO be honest, as I was listening to the Audio books, and not having read the books for 10 years, I was a bit confused myself early on in Ill Earth War. It was mentioned over and over again that she was Lena's Daughters, and that's why he felt guilty, not once was he said to feel guilty (or icky) about her being his daughter for at least most of the book, so for a while, I was starting to wonder if my memory was faulty. of course later on it becomes clear, but, as he's falling in love with her, you can wonder.

Mark in Eureka, California says hello

Post by oldebears »

Hi,
I am new here. I am male, age 49 and live in Eureka, California.
I've been a fan of Thomas Covenant books since the early 1980's, when I read all six (then) of the books, instead of studying for my college courses!
I fell in love with The Land, and it's many inhabitants, especially the giants (I loved Saltheart Foamfollower and Pitchwife!).
I was greatly surprised a few years back to find that Mr. Donaldson had written two more books. I re-read the first six stories, then delved into the new ones. What a thrill!
I am waiting with baited breath, as I'm sure you all are, for the next book!
I am an artist, musician, and writer.
Anyway, it's late and that's all I have to say for now! ;)

I'm sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, we're all artists, musicians, and writers here (except me; I'm only an artist and musician), so we're not going to be able to feed you.

Thank you most kindly for the warm and informative welcome, Menolly!
And Uomo senza nome, I am quite well-fed already: I get paid to be an artist and musician (I can't say I'm a paid writer yet, but I'm working on it!).
I merely joined this forum as a true fan of TC.

Hey everyone!

Can I be greeted by people who have posted tens of thousands of times as well :3?

I'm wolves (not yellow, grey :D) and I've read this series way too many times; I should think that this would allow me to fit in perfectly here :). I loved all of the books in the first two series. In the third, however, I felt that each book started in an almost unfamiliar style before regaining the voice that I remember from the early books. Nevertheless, I loved them as well.

Other than that, I can't wait for the next book!

Don't set your sights so low; you have now been greeted by Royalty. Remember, quality defeats quantity every time.

Oh man, what a rebel, making his own introduction thread while the rest of us peasants stick to just one.
"But a moment later Kasreyn twitched. His limbs shifted. Slowly, stiffly, he climbed to his hands and knees, then to his feet. An instant ago, he had had no pulse: now his heart beat with renewed vigor. Strength flowed back into him. He turned to face the company. He was grinning like a promise of murder."

Well, rebels are welcome too.

In the meantime...

Oh yes. I wasn't sure where/if to post, but Goat and I have been working on a character for the past couple days.
