I am finally starting to read the stand-alones.
I just finished Warlock, so now I'm done with the Courtneys, the Ballantyne's and the Egyptian's (except the Quest, which I haven't got my hands on yet). I don't think I have ever read so much in my life as I have the past 8 months. 11 books in 8 months maybe doesn't qualify for the Guinness Book of Records, but for me it is definatelly a record, especially since they were all in English which of course isn't my native language.
Anyway, now it is time for The Dark of the Sun, and so far (10% into the book) it seems to be a good read. At first I had some problem seperating the characters from each other, but I think they are becoming clear now.
It will be very interesting to compare Wilbur's writing in this book with the last ones I've read, since this was written some 40 years before.
