This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

I don't think there was an actual "promise". I sure hope it 
happens, though - maybe it will help puzzle out what the hell was 
going on in the first two books :)

Tom Holland has a new book which is a nice retelling of the Persian 
war:

Nothing startling but I think he does manage to give more of a 
sense of Persia than most reworkings of Herodotus etc.
