Damn, you're mean, Richard.  And, more effective than any 
taskmaster/mistress I've ever seen.

You see, for certain reasons (If you remember my commentary about TWOTA, 
you'll understand), I am refraining from reading the works of a couple of
authors until my own work is done.  I'm hoping to post SC3 to my early 
list in a day or two, but until then...

"Once upon a time, in a faraway kingdom, there lived...A magician,
practiced in the mysterious arts of his trade...A warrior maid, beautiful
of face, gifted with the strength of twenty...A wild man, cloaked in
honor, doomed to forever wander the earth...A princess, regal in
appearance, born with a heart of fire...and her betrothed, a handsome
prince, transformed by dark sorcery into a young girl..."
