By the way, the books I'm converting are the 'Skaith' books by Leigh Brackett. There's a character in there with the same name as your screen name. Coincidence?

It's sort of not. I've not read those books (are they worthwhile?). I took the name from a very old computer game I spent a lot of time playing around 20 years ago. I suspect the Skaith novels are where the name may have been nicked from.
