The Group Reads - The Illearth War

Post by duchess of malfi »

I just wanted to point out that Danlo has just posted on the last two chapters of Lord Foul's Bane at the Dissecting the Land forum. Let's wrap up that book and get on to The Illearth War and Gildenfire! :twisted:

Also, a group read for Mordant's Need has started in that forum. If you've never read those two books, or it's been years (as in my case), here's a great chance to read them!

If you've never done a group read, they are a lot of fun. Everyone reads the same two chapters each week and then makes comments on them in the appropriate thread. Two chapters is usually doable, even for busy people, and it's a lot of fun to see what other people came up with. :wink:
Love as thou wilt.

Wish I could help, but my books are back at home.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
