[Cel] [qai][admin] Christmas present

Merry Christmas all.  By early February, this will be available at Barnes&Noble and on-line places like Amazon.com but, it's available directly from the publishers now.  It's the closest thing to a Christmas present for everyone I can give .  (Now I just have to figure out how to sign all the copy.)

Most of you already know, I paid to have the horribly long Eerith saga (Renamed "Speakers and Kings") printed and bound so that, if you want, you can pay to not have to print out the 300+ pages.  Sadly, you still have to buy your own copy (I can't afford to give them out free; I only got one free copy myself and have to buy a bunch for my own family and to donate to my public library).  The price is really ugly and I apologize for that--the length of the book is right at 400 pages.  In order to make the story clearer a few sections have been rewritten and, since I wanted everyone who finds it to be able to read it, changes have been made (mostly in the prologue and first section) to make the story accessible to anyone, not just Celandra natives (just in case you have friends and family you want to hook).  The book also adds a listing of characters, significant places, and fauna, a time-line of significant dates, and two new maps, one of the Wyr-Tal basin and the Onagir world map.

I hope, that for those who wanted a copy, this makes a good Christmas present for you and that, for those who don't, you'll forgive the interruption.

To everyone, a Merry Christmas and, if you haven't already, go see "The Two Towers" (very well done, very long).

Hmm... sign, scan, and send it by email :)

Oh, the book price is ok, but what turned me down was the UPS delivery
price ($60 to Finland). I think I'm going to wait until early February to
get my copy from Amazon.

Since I'll wait a while yet, it'll actually be more of a birthday present,
but anyway, thanks in advance :)

[Cel] [Off-Topic] Question and Idea Suggestion

Okay, no one as heard of me for a year now and I have only been lurking for
the last few months. First of all, before i get to the second point of the
email (and hopefully doesn't get unfairly censored by the list controller),
may I come back? Been over a year now... Still interested in celandra.  If
so, may i return in playing the Razanians? I already sent the new ideas for
them to Archangel, but hasn't replied. Either them or can i have Celandra,
well, one of the main provinces controlled by one of the Generals?

Anyway, now to the second part. I have an idea that as been itching my mind
for several months now, especially hearing about Dragonstar and something
similar at some message forum...coupled with the past attempt with the
Main...which i happen to have the rules and site on file. Thinking about
creating a Celandra in Space Interactive History game...which happen during
the Age of Space, after unknown amount of time since the last age.  Celandra
is united and created a large spanning space empire...with help of Magic
coupled with Technology...Magictek.  It will be more like Fantasy in Space,
but with a bit of unique sci-fi races and star nations.  Players will be
playing societies within and outside the empire...with each unique
advantages.  Empire is slowly rotting away after a thousand years of
existence.

Would anyone be interested? If no one here is...would be okay if i tried
starting it anyway, basing it on Celandra?
