: I just realized tonight that J. A. Salmonson wrote "Falcon Blood". This is the story where we learn about Salzarat, the land where the Falconers came from.

: For some reason, when I was developing the Witch World Page, I used this story as a source of information, even though I had sworn not to use non-Norton stories. :)

: So, given that Salmonson's writing was able to fool me -- I mean, this reads like a typical Norton story -- does that mean Andre may have actually Co-Written the tale?

: Or perhaps is this merely a very good writer whose worth has been undervalued? Who *is* Salmonson? Has this person published any other stories?

: Michael
