first new comment: I took a couple seconds and looked this up about Dumas' Vicomte. The Vicomte de Bragelonne Louise de La Valliere The Man in the Iron Mask (and as I read somewhere before, occasionaly they will drop in a fourth book called "10 years after" somewhere in the middle of those three.) skzb's Viscount stands as Paths of the Dead Sethra Lavode The Lord of Castle Black taking for granted that Dumas probably didn't really intend for his Vicomte to be divided up into three titles, skzb is still running pretty parallel to how it is typically split. Out of curiousity, are the covers going to read "Viscount of Adrilankha: Paths of the Dead" etc? (in which case "Viscount of Adrilankha: Sethra Lavode: Enchantress of Dzur Mountain" would pretty much take up the whole cover) second new comment: It occured to me last night that it could just have easily been named "Sethra" vs "Sethra Lavode"... the leaving in of "Lavode" implies to me that Tazendra's becoming "gallant Lavode" carries some weight... last comment: The Lord of Castle Black is (imho) a great title. Hopefully it will stay. MattJ "Forward in all directions." - 3m3
