Awesome news from Janny Wurts. Been a fan for many years and always psyched to see the next volume in the works!

Tizz, I even looked it up in the print book just to make sure that was the word, even though it was obvious from the context.

I really like Matthew Hughes — I’ve got to read that To Hell and Back series.

TWO RAVENS AND ONE CROW — I think they were in the redwwod tree behind my house during the eclipse. Delightful, enticing title!

Like Marion, I read this back in the 70s and had a similar reaction to yours even then. Not surprised to hear it hasn’t aged well.
As to “diMEZZni” — that one cropped up several times in one half-hour programme on BBC Radio 4 recently (supposedly the “high-brow” station). the show was live, and by the end, they’d had a flood of tweets/emails/calls telling them how embarrassed they should be.
Finding it, along with technical production issues, in an audio book is evidence of an inadequate set-up (no proper director/producer, no skilled recording technician, insufficient preparation). Thanks for the warning!
