Porchnus

Christopher, The best advice I can give you re your Porchnus review falls in three: First, are you sure you shouldn't be writing about the Long Sun series, which is richer religious fodder since, in additions to all its own twists, it brings the NS in via the Outsider? Second, better than asking us to rehash material we've covered pretty extensively, you should go over the Archives. Pay particular attention to Jim Jordan (Nutria) and his posts. Third, do a search for Jordan's website (I don't have the address at hand, but my own search found it easily) and read his essay in this very subject. -alga-

Well, I wasn't looking for specific examples, really, though I do thank those who have since posted some I was unaware of. What I did want were thoughts of people who may have tried to explain the BotNS to people who have never read the books. What worked? What didn't? How do I make people want to read this incredible text? Thanks, Christopher R.
