: In glancing at the atrocious map in WARDING OF WITCH WORLD, I couldn't help but think I've never seen a really decent map for Witch World.: I think the map in WEB OF THE WITCH WORLD is easier to read than all these stylistic maps that have been showing up in recent years. And since I no longer have my GURPS Witch World book, I don't know how good those maps were (though I think I questioned some of the High Hallack entries). : I would love to find a cartographer to work with on a Witch World map or atlas. Karen Wynn Fonstad did some pretty good maps for Pern, the Land, and Middle-earth (though she made some mistakes). But I guess we'll never see anything like that. (sigh) : Michael A decent map of the Witch World would certainly be a great help. I have seen several including one that was mixed up with the directions East and West backwards. I may have among my Norton stuff a map that was apparently done with Andre's ok by a early Norton fan club located in New York City. I will try to find it and see if it is better than we have. No promises, however, as my collection is stashed away in so many places that I rarely find anything on first try. By the way, I noticed in the brief intro to Norton's story Frog Magic that I mentioned in an earlier posting the foloowing statement "(Andre Norton) lives in Monterey, Tennessee, where she oversees a writer's retreat." Would that were completely true at this time! Rihard Frahm
