That book 5 to 7 stretch
I was looking at that middle chunk today, not the Bili books this time. The lists I checked put **The Savage Mountains** as #5, **The Patrimony** as #6, and **Horseclans Odyssey** as #7, all right around 1980-81. That i...

Early book order thing
I was looking at the early book list again and it still feels a little funny to me how the start goes **The Coming of the Horseclans**, then **Swords of the Horseclans**, then **Revenge of the Horseclans**. Most lists h...
Demetrios at the bridge
