Of all the Tolkien-a-likes, he was my favourite.
Time is flying, isn't it?
All right, no one's killing folk today, on account of our very tight schedule.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I didn't know his wife had died in 2007.

Oh, right! Hey, do you have the books? I'd love to borrow them.

Some, not all. I originally read them from the library, and never finished completing my own collection. I think I have all of the Mallorean, but only three of the Belgariad. I have both prequels and the Codex, though.

The Belgariad especially flashes me back to university, but they all remind me pleasantly of Montreal. I don't remember if I read the Codex.

I have it but never read it. Maybe if I reread the series now, I'd be more into it, but when I got it, it had been awhile since the last reread.
I can loan you what I have, just let me know where and when.

Maybe we could do Caffe Urth Melrose this weekend? I can splurge on that, I think.

Might not be able to do it this weekend. Multiple out of towners and a possible freelance client meeting. Next weekend too late?

I should be working on my own freelance project this weekend (my sister is a harsh taskmaster) so next is better.
Wait--do I need to give you anything for this visitor?
