(I just got a very very WRONG image of Gaunt handing Milo a handful of pint glasses and telling him to drink up before they hitchhike onto the last Vogen ship off Tanith.)<BR/><BR/>I was thinking the other day as I finished <I>Legion</I>, (great book by the way, reminded me of Mario Puzo during certain bits) that Dan is one of the few writers I can think of who has actually gotten to <I>blow up a planet</I>. I mean, I aspire to write professionally too, but I also write historical fiction, a genre in which destroying planets is generally frowned upon. <BR/><BR/>Of course, not only does Dan get to blow up planets, he gets <I>paid</I> to blow up planets. <BR/><BR/>Golf clap for Dan!Rob Rathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18190321709283384722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16623482.post-13749858168906848842008-04-23T02:44:00.000+01:002008-04-23T02:44:00.000+01:00I also would love to see the Ghost's turn.
