Lines: 11 From: NORRIS@SRI-AI.ARPA I was disappointed in this book. I loved the DAMIANO trilogy and TEA WITH THE BLACK DRAGON was wonderfully original. THE BOOK OF KELLS was predictable; that was what disappointed me. It wasn't a bad book, just not up to MacAvoy's usual standard. I did enjoy the background stuff on tenth century Ireland, but the characters were just too predictable. Aline Baeck NORRIS@SRI-AI -------
