hegley Enthusiast Registered: Sat May 19 2001 Posts: 241 Loc: UK	okey dokey .... 2 titular characters, who both have an unorthodox education: the first - a formal education at a rather unusual boarding school; the second - less formal and taught by a villainous gang of thieves .... Who are the two characters and what else do they have in common?

hegley Enthusiast Registered: Sat May 19 2001 Posts: 241 Loc: UK	well, the Oliver Twist bit is right ..... the second character is much newer - and has a familial commonality with Oliver ....

Copago Moderator Registered: Tue May 15 2001 Posts: 14384 Loc: Australia	okay, I'm having a bit of an identity crises at the moment (read Lord A. thread in jokes and humour... gender test). I'm female, everybody. Copago is the name of our farm, pronounced Co-pay-go ... an aboriginal word meaning water for the lake near our house. Just wanted to clear that up. Okay, i think I'm up for a literature game, i think! here goes.... feel free to yell at me if I've go the idea wrong, but thought that I could do an Author link ...,is that okay? What do the authors Caiseal Mor and Juliet Marillier have in common? (i.e. what they write about) And why could this be considered unusual?

tjoebigham Multiloquent Registered: Sat Dec 25 1999 Posts: 2824 Loc: Fairhaven Massachusetts USA	Both authors, I think, wrote historical works about that area: Kingsley wrote "Westward Ho!" and Kipling did "Puck Of Pook's Hill", a juvenile historical fantasy. tjoeb};> _________________________ Terry Bigham
