Just tryin' to have myself a little bit of fun

Copied from just about everyone:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open it to page 161.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

"An endless stream of faerie folk paraded from her easel and sketchbook, making new homes for themselves in back alleys and city parks, on the wharves down by the waterfront or in the twisty lanes of Lower Crowsea."

Dreams Underfoot, Charles De Lint.

I'd heard about the Earthsea adaptation. I'll reserve judgment... I'm not very keen on animation type things and even less keen on Japanese animation, so I'll likely not bother unless people like the [livejournal.com profile] atuan community absolutely rave about it.

Mind you, it can't be worse than the Sci-Fi Channel mini-series. I didn't see that but it was an absolute abortion - LeGuin ended up publically disowning it on her website. A shocking wasted opportunity.

Ooo, thanks for that community link! Will check them out when I finish the Earthsea books.

Eeep re: the Sci-Fi Channel series ... is that the one with that silly bint from Smallville in?
