Hello, all!

I hope those of you in the U.S. had a nice Thanksgivings, as had I.

Regretfully, There were no other book suggestions then the one proposed earlier. Since Pauline Gedge's book was the only one mentioned to me, we will start with her book and then go with two more selections, including the new McCullough book, which should occupy us into the Spring :-)

So here goes:

The Eagle and the Raven
by Pauline Gedge
December through mid-January...

Book suggestions sought!

feeds@yuku.com (IreneH) — Mon, 11 Nov 2002 12:45:53 GMT

Its time to pick a new book! The last selection was a dud, Im sorry to say. The reason for this was, I believe, that we were too ambitious by selecting a number of theme related books. Or maybe is was to early in the new discussion format to attempt such a selection. Anyway, there is no use crying over spilt milk, rather we should continue with one book at a time at this point in time. Two books have been suggested already, but regretfully, one of them is not only out of print but hard to...

New Book Discussion format to begin mid-September

feeds@yuku.com (IreneH) — Tue, 03 Sep 2002 08:43:53 GMT

Given the fact that most chat rooms are difficult to access, and that some people dont trust the privacy of the only easy one, AIM, weve decided to follow other book groups and move the discussion to a forum. This has the advantage that people can post at any time, which gives those outside the US/Canadian time zones the opportunity to participate too.

We happen to have have a made-to-order forum, Ancient Classical History Homework Help

More on "The Lightbearer"

feeds@yuku.com (IreneH) — Sat, 05 Jan 2002 18:28:29 GMT

There is what seems to be an official "Lightbearer" website which has--under "References"--a partial bibliography plus research notes which are missing in the book: www.lingstar.com/tlb/

it also has a cast of characters section--as a friend wrote: "There are an awful lot of characters in the thousand pages..."
