Green

** Spoiler Warning ** This post obliquely refers to events at the end of EXODUS FROM THE LONG SUN. . . . . I really don't know if this is a better question to ask here or on the Whorl list, since it directly concerns both. So here it is: what is the status of the "Green = Luna" hypothesis? For me the appeal is in finding out just what was going on up on the Forests of Lune. Often mentioned, but never visited in the course of BOTNS. Let me guess. Giant vegetable spiders, a mile long. No wait, that's another book. Er, shape-shifting vampires? D

One word: impasse. I've always been fond of that particular hypothesis, but some recalcitrants on the list just won't have it. And I'm going to push the boat out a little: I betya Green=Lune. For one thing, not to impose my lack of imagination on Wolfe, but I can't see how Merryn and Sev are going to do a cameo in the Green/Blue system otherwise. And link to the BotNS (Pas=Typhon, so what?) would be slightly arbitrary if that's all there was to it. We'll just have to wait and see. Kieran C.
