I am looking forward to it, Paul! Burroughs really did his research on the historical stuff. Have you read his Ruritanian romances? They are good, too, in my opinion. For the Apache novels he put quite a bit of effort into rendering Athabascan into English. Whether it is accurate or not, who knows, but one of Burroughs' gifts was making "facts" seem plausible enough so that readers are willing to suspend disbelief. Have you read his other sf novels that are not part of a series? I recommend the "Beyond the Farthest Star" stories. The way I am able to obtain virtually everything he ever wrote is through Project Gutenberg Australia, as the copyrights have lapsed in Australia for most of Burroughs. I download them to my old Kindle Reader and am off.



"Symmetry and asymmetry are convivial. The paradox of order and chaos in simultaneous improvisation is such a challenge to hold in focus. But in that balancing, (for it is surely in infinite process and never totally balanced)--- in that conversation, -- in that music, the new enters the patterns."
