I have all of them but all the appearances in Alarums & Excursions.<br /><br />I love these stories and think the characters are awesome. I remember reading them when I was first collecting The Dragon and have always wanted them to show up in a game, either by playing one of them or as NPCs.<br /><br />You can find more info on JEH's Boinger and Zereth series (as well as JEH's other writings) at http://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=16989 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Eric_Holmes and http://www.acaeum.com/forum/about3318.html and http://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=38933&start=0Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05530280529499677331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-55216815627241765622010-05-09T09:15:41.674-05:002010-05-09T09:15:41.674-05:00That cover was gateway into the hobby back in the ...That cover was gateway into the hobby back in the late 70s and I haven't looked back. <br /><br />Another legend passes :(Tim Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03845783872464372488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7913319789564397699.post-40437545868989837052010-05-09T07:50:25.793-05:002010-05-09T07:50:25.793-05:00Wow that brings back memories (even though I'm...Wow that brings back memories (even though I'm just a baby).Charisma Kellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01543984488914124893noreply@blogger.com
