So long and thanks for the fish....

I've decided that blogging and keeping a journal is not for me. I still really enjoy Livejournal-land but I haven't got anything to say for myself to the world at large.

Bye :)

Hey, I figured I'd post in here so as not to bother lavvyan with a bunch of comment notifications.

w00t for the 10 points! Been a long while since I read them all. I last did that after getting The Spirit Stone.

How many of Katharine Kerr's books have you read?

Hello :)

The last time I sat down and re-read the Deverry books must have been sometime last year because I had bought The Gold Falcon and wasn't sure I would remember all of the plot leading up to it.

Every few years I re-read the Deverry books because they are great favourites of mine. Funnily enough I'm waiting for Amazon UK to deliver my order for The Spirit Stone - it has a waiting time of 6 weeks, which is annoying :(

I really enjoy Katharine Kerr's SF books too, in fact I would go so far as to say she is one of my favourite authors. I love the attention to detail she shows in all the worlds she creates and I love her strong, female characters.

Have you read her non-Deverry books as well?

Heh, yeah, there's a whole lot of plot to remember. I quite like how she mixes present and past. I enjoy looking at the tables, when they appear, at the back of the book about the various incarnations ( ... )

Looking at the tables in the Deverry books and remembering who used to be who is fun for me too. I like how she brings elements of a previous incarnation into a current life; some of the characters have to learn lessons based on how they lived before ( ... )
