Happy Birthday, Sounis!

sounis is 11 years old, and Ornon's sheep are dancing!

Eleven years ago today Queen rowana and the elusive eddis started up this wonderful community, while we were waiting very impatiently for Harper Collins to finish knitting The King of Attolia. So much has happened over the past 11 years. We've grown up and grown older while getting to know other QT fans around the world who love Megan's books and want to share questions, answers, and insanity with others.

Sounis members have come and gone over the years. Some of us have been around since the beginning, and others are brand new. What has never changed is that this online community welcomes everyone. We're the nicest fan community out there!

So, whether you're a oldie or a newbie, it's time for introductions! Leave a comment and tell us

1. How long you've been a sounis member


2. A little about yourself, including where you live (country, continent, city, anything is fine)


3. How you found Megan's books


4. Which book is your favorite


5. Why you love the books with the heat of 1000 suns


6. Something you *hope* happens in Thick As Thieves

Or, anything you want to share. C'mon folks! It's been quiet around here for too long. Let's hear from you. Happy Birthday to us!

My daughter is re-reading ACoK, and ran across this hilarious image, which I don't remember noticing before. It's on p.155, when Eddis is about to tell Sophos the story of Polystrictes. Sophos turns back to look at the Magus, who is described as "far behind them, walking with one of Eddis's attendants on one arm and one of Attolia's on the other."

Glad to see the Magus is enjoying himself! And I have to wonder if the Attolian attendant is the romantic but foolish Chloe? (since we see in KoA that she is an attendant again). Anyway, the image of the Magus strolling along arm in arm with the ladies (of both courts, no less) has been making me laugh all day.
