Hello to everyone in the land

Post by greg_soulsearcher »

Hi everybody

I read the first trilogy back when I was 12 then when I was 25 I read the first and second trilogies, I thought it about time I revisited one of my favourite places again (aside from Pizza Express).

My so much has happened since I have been gone, I have some reading to do here :-)

Tempted though I might be I have resolutely avoided the forums containing spoilers. Though I have to say its good to be back and experiencing the Land once more! :D

Welcome.
We're all pretty good about keeping the 1st and 2nd chronicles free from 3rd Chronicle spoilers.
You should be ok.

Welcome, Greg.

I think the Chronicles are better than Pizza. You can pick up both the next morning if you don't finish the night before. But you don't have to wait 30 minutes for the Chronicles, and then leave a tip.

Welcome to the Watch. :D As HLT said, you should be alright in the First & Second Chrons forums. But stay outta the third until you're up to date. ;)

Look around, join in, have fun.

Hi Greg!

While I side with wayfriend on the superiority of TCTC over pizza, it's a tough call which one is more easily digested after a late night binge....
