Asher’s Recent Updates

Asher Allen is on page 47 of 314 of Perelandra: I was long overdue for a reread of this book.

. . . It was so different from every other taste that it seemed mere pedantry to call it a taste at all.

This book has surprisingly little to do with Stonehenge. But maybe that's for the best; this Follett guy doesn't know what he's talking about.
