Lines: 16 From: Will Duquette This is really fantasy and music, but what the heck. John Myers Myers (author of _Silverlock_, a true gem of a book) has also written a novel entitled _The Harp and the Blade_, which I believe is just out in mass market form. The novel concerns a Bard, who's name I forget, and is actually a fairly straightforward tale set in a strife-torn medieval Europe. The tie in with music is that some of the songs the Bard has written are contained in the book. No music, just lyrics, but they're plenty much fun. After reading one of the Bard's tirades, one understands why people didn't like to get Bard's mad at them.... Will Duquette "Obscurity is my Business"
