ITA! I love it because it's a tie-in to the earlier books. "...that all good things shall pass utterly..." or something like that.

And the fourth title, "The Last Dark," just makes me shiver. 8O

The "shall pass utterly" comes from "Lord Kevin's Lament"

"Ah Creator, was it your intent that beauty and truth should pass utterly from the Earth"

Maybe THAT book will be the book of the Old Lords!!

WOW...can you imagine this...going back to the One Forest...the coming of men...the Viles, the Demondim, the King and Queen, the maiming of the Trees, the coming of the Ravers, the coming of the Forestals and the Colossus, Berek making the Staff of Law from The One Tree...on and on and on...the coming of the Giants, the befriending of the Unhomed by Damelon, the construction of Revelstone, Loric and the sedution of the Viles by the ravers, the making of the krill...then KEVIN!!! The Haruchai, the Ramen and the Ranyhyn... Foul joining the council... THE RITUAL OF DESCREATION...OH MY!!! But, Foul is going to be corrupting TIME...something is going to happen to the history...

I can't wait for this!!!

okay...calm yourself Furl...whew...
And I believe in you
altho you never asked me too
I will remember you
and what life put you thru.

~fly fly little wing, fly where only angels sing~

~this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you~

...for then I could fly away and be at rest. Sweet rest, Mom. We all love and miss you.

I do hope Mr Donaldson includes that piece of history in these final Chronicles.

I want you all to learn of what we Elohim sacrificed. :cry:

Well, my guess is he probably will, if he's going all the way back to the Old Forest, I'm sure the coming of the Elohim who became the Colussus will be in there :)

Wow, I go away for a week and the chrons as we know them get turned upside down.

Bit of a shame that Sarah Clint died, after reading the preamble I was thinking about how a Linden-Sarah-Sandy-Jeremiah-Joan and Roger group dynamic might work if they all got transported to The Land.

Danlo,

Thanks so much for taking such comprehensive notes. Your efforts are greatly appreciated. Sure wish I could have been able to listen to Steve.

Alas, I've been waiting for a really long time for this series of books - you have no idea!

Thanks again. You're the man!
But hear then, for good or ill. I fulfill the law of my creation. My maker can require no more of me.

Thank you Danlo!
Didn't want to read your summary of chapter 5 but couldn't stop myself doin it. This is so fantastic. What you've told it is everything I have hoped for and more. I knew he would surprise everybody with something awesome, and didn't he...The Old Lords, Corruption of Time...WOW!
