(Author of DOOR NUMBER THREE which has been getting great reviews.) Good to see you here--now I just have to think up a prybar to make you speak up more! Thanks for the "Seven Nights" article info. Do you happen to know the name of the author of that one? Last time we were chatting, you and Jerboa had to keep quiet about EXODUS around me because you both had read it pre-publication. (And thank you for your tact, by the way!) But both of you were just bursting to talk about it. (Such is the curse of being in the advance guard!) So I would mention things going on in the earlier books, like Quetzal turning into a plumed snake, and Gene dropping hints in conversation about the alien(s) on board, and your eyes would light up: "yes, yes, and then . . . oh, nothing." alga (author of THE HISTORY OF HELL, which has wonderful text and lavish illustrations), Sorry to read about your hospital visit. Get well! =mantis= Questions or problems to whorl-owner at lists.best.com ---
