It was advertised incorrectly as _Love_Free_Love_. All I really know about it is that the title comes from a classified ad offering free rent and that every time he explains what it's about he says something completely different. McD /* ---------- */ Closer - actually, it's *Free Live Free*. One of the main characters is named Ben Free, and he places the ad inviting people to come and live in his house rent-free. It was fairly easy to finish, but I don't think it was up to the caliber of *The Book of the New Sun*. I don't think he did a good enough job with his major characters, and the resolution was kind of silly. Wombat "I am not, nor have I ever been, jan howard finder" ihnp4!uiucdcs!ccvaxa!wombat
