It's a new month... time for some new bug fixes!
While Matt is still working on harnessing the book data that we all have contributed to, and making it available for searches, he's also been rather busy fixing other things, and even adding some nifty little features. Read all about it in this Announcements forum post.
Eaters of the Dead
This Book is Currently in the Wild!
2 journalers for this copy...
Purchased for the sole (soul?) purpose of releasing.
From the back of the book:
In the year AD 922, a refined Arab courtier, representative of the powerful Caliph of Bagdad encounters a party of Viking warriors on their journey to the barbaric North. He is appalled by Viking customs -- the wanton sexuality of their pale, angular women, their disregard for cleanliness, their cold-blooded human sacrifices. But only in the depths of the Northland does he learn the horrifying truth: he has been enlisted to combat a terror that comes under cover of night to slaughter the Vikings and devour their flesh ...

I found it in a Banyan tree. :) I'm looking forward to reading it.
I just finished reading the book.
I probably would have appreciated it more had I read Beowulf. It's written from the perspective of a man traveling in the 10th century. The writing style is interesting in the sense that it's written to feel like a journal by someone in that time period.
