Wednesday, 25 July 2007 20:46It is the first episode of Heroes in... thirteen two minutes! AT LAST! If the internet has lied to me and it turns out to be rubbish I shall be very annoyed.
Ye BBC has released details of the extras on the Key to Time boxset (here) and lo, they are manifold. Excellent. I was going to ask for this for Christmas but I don't think I can wait that long. I'm not even sure I can wait til September. *is impatient*
Curses, I have just lost an ebay auction for Interference bk 1;
wils, I don't suppose you have a copy I could borrow please? I thought the library had it but this turned out to be what we in the librarian trade call a Lie.
Speaking of libraries, I had the following conversation with a student earlier:
He: *dumps pile of books*
Me: Would you like to return those?
He: *blank expression*
Me: (clearly) Are you returning those?
He: No no no, I want to return them.
Me: So you do want to return them then?
He: (so glad she finally understands) Yes!
Me: (in my inside voice) How can you be doing a masters degree?

Having discovered that the USA got it in 2002, my joy when the fact we were finally getting it, only five years later, was discovered was much. And the extras make everything worthwhile.

However I haven't read many 8th books, which meant that I was put off by this one as I have heard it is very heavy on 8th-continuity. I have also heard that they fool about with the 3rd's past, which to me is blasphemy most foul.
