"Radical Radthorn and the Maniacal Miss Gemini" has a nice ring to it... and so it begins*muhahahah*. Soo, moving on now from all the "taking over the world", "Gemini's completely insane" thoughts :D . Oh dear, it's getting dire, i seriously have to write a 600 word satirical masterpiece by the end of the week... i think i'll manage it......... ;)

Hi Tari - The proper term is "tetralogy". But many people just call a four book sequence a quartet, which is easier to remember...


Personally i like the quadology better :D but tetralogy? u gotta wonder who comes up with these things i mean in maths 2day we learnt some thing called a Logathism?!???!!!! :eek: :confused: Meh? wat da? i agree quartet is alot easier to remeber and thats wat i though of first.

~Tari

P.s. Gemini i think i know where u put those plans! try under your matress! **calls out across the vast desert of Australia** oops!! :o it was spose to be a secret! quick seize those plans!!! DUCKS ATTACK!!!!!!

*** Radical Radthorne issues instructions to his troops ***

All right, Maniacal Miss Gemini, you hold her left arm; Te-tari-logy, you hold her right.

Ok, ducks - foot massage attack!

(Bet you've never fantasized about a duck foot massage, now have you?) :)

(Hmm, I do believe we've strayed a bit from the thread topic of Alison's books, though... Any new readers strolling along in here are going to come away with a terribly wrong impression.) :rolleyes:

Ok, back to serious book topics...

Serious book topics... :rolleyes: - as a bunch of keen divagators is there any hope of any of us remaining on-topic anywhere? Well, I guess I speak for myself here, I know I'm hopeless.

This whole thing suddenly reminded me of that Monty Python sketch of Alastair Cook being attacked by a duck. I must go and listen to it again.

I am now in deep cover, under my new identity as a fire-breathing possum in the Flinders Ranges - drat - gave that away - :confused:

Finally... after spending the hour last readin the last 13 pages of messages i'm ready to reply wooohoooo!!!!!

I love the books and am in scotland so should be feelin the terrible torment of not being able to read the riddle yet but instead am perfectly happy as i ordered it over the internet for the very resonable price of £14 includin p & p and got it for xmas :) :D

Anyhooo must concragulate u guyz on ur amazin ability to go off subject as i've read sooo much diff stuff not about the books (shakespeare,school,teachers,history,DUCKS just to mention a few) :rolleyes:

Since readin this i've also discovered my elven name (Merenwen Falassion) and my hobbit name (Ruby Bleecker-Baggins of Fair Downs (bit of a mouth full))

Anyhooo (already said that once but find myself goin off subject) u've not scared me away and i also get to have long discussions about the books with two of my friends who i borrowed my copy too (i'm v.proud of gettin them into the book) these discussion usually take place durrin v. borrin art lessons were i cant be bothered workin.

Anyhooo (again with the anyhoo) lookin forward to talkin to u guyz.
Merenwen :rolleyes:

You're a brave woman, Merenwen, to dive in among these nuts. :eek: I mean, they're talking about duck foot massages, for godsake. (Though I still like the idea of a foot massage, Rad, feeling a bit less pathetic today - had rotten flu recently. Might account for the madness, maybe, on my side anyway...)

Glad to hear that you're spreading the word in Scotland...should I feel guilty that you're talking about Pellinor in class instead of doing what you're supposed to? I'm not very good at feeling guilty.
