ABDUL GRY is Ladyburg

Regarding TAKE HIS LUNAR, is it a LAKE? Please give us a hint. Number of words? Is it a name of a place or a person?

Well done with LADYBURG, Ramon

OK, clues for TAKE HIS LUNAR:

It is not a person or a lake, but it is an Afrikaans word & strangely enough it is 2 words at the beginning of When The Lion Feeds but becomes one word near the end of The Sound of Thunder - go figure? (I think it is mentioned in some other Courtney novels but I haven't read them for a while & haven't checked that far.)

Yep! =D>

I'm out for now. Delby has some more which no doubt, she'll put up when she has a chance.

In the meantime, any one else made any?

I've got a short one:

A BLEAK

I guess it's an easy one if you look at my avatar...

Bakela is correct. That´s what Zouga was called (the man who strikes with the fist) in "A falcon flies", which is my avatar.

I´m sorry if my "hint" had the opposite effect...

A NICKNAME STRIPS
While a tiger eyed its prey and an eagle raged in a thunderous sky a river of darkness fell upon a burning sun and the wolf cried tis a time to die, thus did the angels weep as power and triumph in those golden eyes did creep.

The first part of the name is actually a title.

Ha Ha! Excellent work Ramon. I don't know where the so called 'Egyptian lovers' on this forum were....perhaps they are just a myth! :wink:

Here's one for you all:
