YAY!!!!  I LOVE _Horizon_ as a name!! And just about a year from now,
how cool!  Where's my _Passage_ anyway?  Oh, wait, haven't ordered it
yet.  Um.  Don't worry will do so very soon.  ;-) (actually, now done,
and the date says May 2008 for amazon.co.uk, to be dispatched June 2,
2008 according to the confirmation email).

I really wasn't very enamored with "Wide Green World" as a title or
subtitle even though I'd been thinking of the second two books that
way.  Perhaps related to my complete inability to appreciate the
setting.  I must have "setting blindness" ;-)

Whereas, _Passage_ and _Horizon_ speak to me a lot more.  Perhaps I'm
just better off with understanding single words of few syllables.
Talk. To. Me. That. Way.  ;-p

How do they look with the others?

The Sharing Knife, Vol 1: Beguilement
The Sharing Knife, Vol 2: Legacy
The Sharing Knife, Vol 3: Passage
The Sharing Knife, Vol 4: Horizon

I quite love that!  Lois, you have my approval!  ;-p  Hmmm.. not
Horizon_s_?  Just one?  Interesting.  Usually, people tend to speak of
new horizons, though I suppose if you're painting or something, it's
just a singular horizon you're looking at.  Not that I can see any
sort of horizon at the moment, I'm in the new office with no windows
(my current lovely office shared with 5 others) and if I did make it
to some outside windows, there's just white.  Snow.  As far as the eye
can see -- not very far at all! ;-)

Enough rambling, I really just can't wait to read the last two!!!!!  ;-)
