[Xanthe]

I did a series re-read before reading Neogenesis, but saved the Crystal books re-read for after it. Worked out very well, in that I could see more of the threads that appear in the later stories.

I would really love a book about those first years on Liad and more about Rool Tiazan's subsequent actions, since it seems the lifemating trait was passed on via him. Did he marry the red-headed gambler? Are the dramliz traits still strong in Clan Erob? Questions, questions....
