heheh. just got it myself, this week. saw the bit about tomas, oscar and
ramon, iirc, and looked at the spine for their initials, and was surprised
to instead find a misspelling of aisse's name.

now, amidst _athyra_, i've just realised, hopefully correctly, that the
wizards savn reads about in _the book of the seven wizards_ are the
scribblies, and/or other authors of mr. brust's acquaintance.
.
but which is which?
she who is small
she who is tall
she whose hair is red
he whose eyes are green
he whose hair is dark    (skzb?)
the gentle one
the master of rhyme

have read a bit of shetterly and a lot of bull (:p), but not much from the
other scribblies, other than in the liavek books, and that was long ago in a
distant land. is emma bull tall? does will shetterly have green eyes? hmm...

guess i'll have to go and read everything they've written :)
and then reread _the sun, the moon, and the stars_.
