	  ...

     	 So, what is Linden going to do now?  No doubt, the Land
     will soon be in trouble again.  Now that they have a new (better)
     Staff of Law, it will be a simple matter to summon her.  She has
     the White Gold now, but when she shows up in the Land, will they
     give her the Staff of Law to wield?  I can't imagine there being
     much of a contest if she has her health-sight, the Ring, and the
     Staff.  I would be interested in reading about the Chronicles of
     Linden Avery the Chosen, but I think one book would cover it
     since she's so powerful.

In the first chronicles of Thomas Covenant, Chovenant (and everyone
else) had health-sight, and the staff of law was owned by the
good-guys for part of the time.  Thus, it doesn't seem to me that
Linden Avery will be any more powerful than Covenant had the potential
to be.  The biggest difference seems to me to be that Linden is less
wimpy and is less likely to have qualms about using her power.
