While we wait...

I just started reading Rosemary Sutcliff's "The Eagle of the Ninth" for the first time, since we all know that this author has had an influence on MWT and her writing. I've been meaning to read this for years, and now seems like as good a time as any.

Already on page 3, I spotted something that MWT definitely referenced in "The Thief". No one spoil it for me, but I suspect this trilogy will be like a treasure hunting finding little nuggets that are hinted at in MWTs books....
