want something wierd
The first time i read The Three Musketeers i started at the begining and
read the forward even. About half way through i though 'hmm, this voice
sounds familiar" so i go to the end of the forward to see who wrote it and
guess what "Steven Brust, PJF". I started laughing (I had read Phoenix
Guards before Musketeers.) but it was definately something i thought to
share here. Popcorn?
