But you would make a damn fine spear carrier! Perhaps because of your chapters on theater, I am in the midst of re-reading Robert Heinlein's Double Star . Another damn fine read. Even if the friggin' pages are beginning to fall out. Not much better shape than my original The Warlock In Spite of Hims...

Bravo indeed on Chapter 1 of SST IV. A good start to what is shaping up to e a rousing yarn! I was in a few plays in high school and college, took Drama I and II, competed at state in the 1 Act play and yet none of the 'theater' rubbed off on me. Your inside looks and 'theater' education make me thi...

I did notice the more modern turn of a phrase from time to time in this chapter. A quick survey of the previous chapters (Evil Lynn Wood? A piker!) did not find any modern thoughts or statements by anyone other than Matt. So I think you've done well and attributed to Ortho exactly what you would hav...

Awesome! (Wait for it... wait for it (the other shoe that is)...) But I do wonder about the language used by Ortho during his prayer. Me... I could see asking for a miracle "RIGHT ABOUT NOW" on my way to the gallows. A young warrior, wizard in the middle ages having strong religious belief...

I've gone missing in work these past several months and haven't taken the time to comment as I simply haven't had the time to spare. Perhaps I should join up with Gripe. It does take time to look at and evaluate work on other then a visceral level. At that level... I like it! It is not more of the s...

Clever tovarisch! Mike would have chuckled. Bob probably would have as well.

When Worlds Collide. I know its been used but... what would happen if yet another parallel world invaded the world of Merovence? High tech weapons mostly fail but the alternative Earth is populated by a semi-civilization of insects/proto-humans/catlike creatures, whatever. Pick one, or two! These cr...

'Sounds' good to me. A wizard with a frog for a throat, and everything else. Interesting notion. So how did it end? And don't tell me he croaked!

Well done (or Bravo Zulu as we say in the Navy) Kilo Fox Six. You said what I wanted to say but didn't have the time! Ortho take note, KF6 is making sense. KF6, are you a staff officer? You have the skills.

I'm in for $7... for new, somewhat less for old, $3-$4. I have to qualify.
