Rainbow K has been reading The Great Book of Amber. She's in preparation mode to visit ACNW this year, and I told her she has to read the books first. (She's relieved as of last night that I'm not subscribing her to the mailing list. Just because I have 900+ messages there I really haven't read...)
What makes this SO cute to me is that she'll come in excitedly and read bits of it aloud to me, like I've never heard them. She also has a running commentary of who "the important people" are and who she thinks should be on the throne, and things like that. It's great. (So far she doesn't like Eric.)
She did point out to me that there were "a lot of dirty words" in the book, but that she was "OK with them." Hmmmm. She said nothing at all about the scene between Corwin and Moire. Maybe I should poke around at that...

Don't you just love introducing Amber to a new audience? Sweet!

The scene between Corwin and Moire is very un-obvious to the uninitiated. I've heard more than one person say something along the lines of, "I read that when I was twelve, and I thought he meant, y'know, a ballad."
