[boc-l] And now... a word from our sponsor

Witch world was fun, although I liked her forerunner books a bit more (juvie, though.)

...and Anthony; once upon a time, a very capable writer, but turned awful pretty quickly :-(

(My favorite of his is the Cluster and Tarot books, and possibly Cthon.)

Thx,

Arin

  I should dig my copy out and read it again (Foundation). Another series I liked was Andre Nortons' Witch World - read all of them in one multi-day session in the early 80's (the ones that were out). Also started getting into Piers Anthony after reading Ox, Orn, Omnivore - I'd recommend those 3 for a long time.
