I am confused as to the true involvement of the Book itself. I didn't see the Book playing much of a roll in the story (WHAT!?!) It was John's tracing of circles on the cross that opened the time portal. Granted, John was very studied in Gaellic art, of which the Book was a prime example, and the circles may(?) have been depicted in the Book. Can someone (with greater artistic interpretation than I) show connectivity? Also, how did the Book figure into the climax when John "sings" the Norsemen away? -- John Bossert Data I/O Corporation Redmond, WA uw-beaver!entropy!dataio!{bossert,usenet}
