The links of a young Brust working at his old IBM shop remind me that so far we have seen quite a few years of Taltos' life. It takes time to build up an organization. We have second hand knowledge of his childhood. His time as a fugitive must be an aging thing, as is time as a soldier. We don't know how much there is to come (in aging terms). But it would be real neat to have an album showing his progression - including a picture of him as a child at the knees of his grandfather, learning wisdom. Maybe a wet-behind-the-ears young adult meeting Morrolan. A teen talking to a young thief as his father is standing behind with a broom wanting him to work. He did shave at one point and disguise his height. He has grown and changed - someday I would like to see good illustrations that showed that.
