"Sword of D..." what? Dshall? Duschall? I Google and I can't find it. I look under Matthew Stover and I find "Blade of..." but nothing close to "Sword of D---". What is this book?! I have to know! :) OK, I can’t find this book mentioned as life altering… “Sword of D…” what? Dshall? Duschall? I Google and I can’t find it.

It really got me reading Fantasy again. I'd given up on the genre after reading the first two and a half books of a popular series of 'high fantasy' novels. They were highly recommended to me but, er, I found them less-than-good, so decided that I must've outgrown this Fantasy stuff. I *can't wait* for Stover's new book. The question is - for optimal pimpage, do I buy multiple copies from Amazon or from my local indie store? Hmm. Clay: Heroes Die was the one that changed my life.

It was a mixture of being relaxed, at peace, full of sense of wonder, and having my massive, colourful, rich and detailed child-like imagination back again. I remember what that feeling was now; it was the feeling I got as a child when I was read a bedtime story. They all came with pictures. As the guys observed in this episode, it's the effect of both words and pictures working together that makes Mr Fooster's so effective. I haven't seen the book yet but I really believe that the website version makes the whole thing work from another angle too: the music and the reading voice were beautiful.
