Welcome to the Watch, garythfla! :D

I also want to urge Covenant fans to get the Atlas. I've had mine for years. It's a wonderful companion book to the Chronicles.

Welcome to the Watch!

The Atlas has been out of print for several years now. I have a copy and I agree with MM, it is a must-have for any serious TC fan. I believe that I found my copy on ebay.

Well, I bought my copy of the Atlas new when it first came out, but I think it's been out of print for a long time now, since it sold very poorly (according to SRD in his Gradual Interview). I wonder how many copies of the Atlas still exist?

(Heh, dlbpharmd posted while I was typing this...)

Technically it is not a donaldson book. He just provided his input to the process...

I bought all my COTC books used (except Runes)
Libraries are also great--I have the Gap series on hold right now...If you can`t find Gilden Fire, just pick up Daughter of Regals (For GF and 7 other great stories)--as far as the Atlas, apparantly you can get it through ebay--I think there`s a thread or two about it here.
