Hi Tav. I'm sub-editing your Entry 'Shadowmarch by Tad Williams'.

The edited version is at A87777364, so you should subscribe to that page to pick up any post-publication comments.

I have one question: The first sentence in the second paragraph of the 'Story' section <> seems as though it should have something more at the end. Have some words been lost?

Another couple of detail questions.

1. <>
Should 'Syan' be 'Xand'?

2. Is the correct spelling Quinnitan or Qinnitan? I've found references to both.

hi!smiley - smiley

You are right, something is missing there smiley - huh I have no idea what it was or if I replaced it with the following sentence. I think you should just delete everything fom 'and'.

Xand and Syan are two different things. Xand is a continent to the south and Syan is a kingdom in Eion.

The correct spelling is Qinnitan. I think I typed the u after the q automatically.

in the section about the Twilight Lands:
'200 years before the Shadowmarchstory begins'
(space missing)

I just noticed a mistake on my side. I read the books partly in German so I got a name wrong. I must check this again when I'm at home but I think all Ophelias should be changed to Opal. smiley - ermsmiley - sorry

I'll await your final nod smiley - biggrin before completing this.
