Alison, when you wrote about Cadvan's past in The Gift, did you borrow some ideas from the Earthsea story because they seem similar to me.

It could just be me going mad :rolleyes:

Hi Pellinor Lover (love your alias :D ) - welcome. I just moved your question to the correct thread - I try to keep these stickies relatively well ordered -I'm glad you like The Gift so much, and I hope The Riddle comes your way soon!

In answer to your queries:

No, I haven't read David Eddings. And the names of the four books in the series are The Gift, The Riddle, The Crow and (yet to be written) The Singing.

PS Just a little note on forum etiquette - there are a lot of members whose first language isn't English, and who have difficulty reading textspeak, so mods prefer proper English...and try to keep on topic in the threads...if you post a question here, I will answer it: I'm pretty busy, but usually within a couple of days.
