Wizard-King

 


Old clay.

The magic still matters.

North by northwest.

Pay attention 


Paddling: Richardson Bay

 


2020 memory.

Rerererereading, If You Know What I Mean

 


Dorothy Dunnett 's King Hereafter.

My favorite novel.

And I have read plenty.

(I reread the way most people listen to music.)

Don't trust me. Try this one yourself.

Hail Macbeth, king hereafter.

Happy Memory: Spring 2019

 




Cats in Station



 


The Travel-Edition

 of a favorite novel.

Steven Erikson's Gardens of the Moon.
Heroic fantasy of the old school new-schooled.
A worthy read.



I really did cut the book in Twain just to lighten my luggage. I was packing at least five other books for a two-week trip, right?
