    Extractions: Notes on the Invention of Pern by Anne McCaffrey Thirty years ago come this May, I sat down in my living room in Sea Cliff, Long Island, to think up new critters for a storyand came up with dragons, their symbiotic partners, and Pern. I spent all day, until the kids got home from school, setting out the parameters of the story, as well as the world that needed the special abilities of the dragons I envisaged as Pern's renewable air-defense system. Mind you, I cheated a bit: I used an Earth-type planet. And why not? Carl Sagan had told the Science Fiction Writers of America at their annual Nebula banquet that there were quite likely thousands of Earth-type planets in the universe. So that was within the realms of possibility. What wasn't likely, though I learned this later from Dr. Jack Cohen, was the development of humanoid species from a similar primordial stew. But I didn't need humans. I needed the critters. The first yarn, "Weyr Search," wrote out at about 26,000 words. John Campbell, who bought it for Analog

    Extractions: Published in 1945, this huge utopian novel remains for me one of the great achievements of literature. Wright was not a great writer but his vision of this ideal country, this land of Islandia is a beguiling and entrancing picture. The land itself is the main character of this book and Wright presents us with a country and a way of life that is at once highly idealised and yet ultimately believable. You cannot read this book without wanting to go there, or without thinking that Islandia is the way life should be.

    Extractions: Last updated mid-1998 I have some pages devoted to some of the best active fantasy writers. Mark Helprin . Author of Winters Tale, A Soldier of the Great War Guy Gavriel Kay . Author of Tigana, A Song for Arbonne Robert Van Gulik . Author of The Judge Dee Mystery novels Tad Williams . Author of Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn (fantasy trilogy) and Otherland (new novel) Gene Wolfe . Author of The Book of the New Sun (four novels) and The Long Sun (also four novels)... This leads to a site all about my favorite game: Ultima Online . I have spent far too much time on this game (and not enough time on my web site...). Some of the best fantasy ever written (including the writing by Lord Dunsany and Morrison) is no longer in print. This is a sad state of affairs, but someday, all of the world's literature will be available for download (for a fee) via the next generation internet and this current situation will just be like a bad dream. The following are a small sampling of the best fantasy novels. The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. If you haven't read the Lord of the Rings, don't think for a second that you understand fantasy. Although Tolkien didn't invent the genre of Fantasy, everything written since 1955 has been directly influenced by this book. One can quibble with aspects of his story but, this remains one of the most wonderful stories ever written, a testament to the power and vitality of the English language.

I will do so, but please note that the phonology/phonotactics document is essentially final (except that the name of the language is to be inserted when we have it), while I expect that additions (but not significant changes) will be made to the other two.

The alphabet consists of all the Roman letters except q and x. The letters and will never be used to distinguish two words, so that in a technical sense they will be considered the same phoneme. In fact, however, the official sounds of and will be as shown below. Because people whose native languages have only one sound similar to both, as Japanese and Korean, may use that sound for both letters, we will never use them to distinguish minimal pairs. A similar comment holds for and ; Spanish, for example, has no /z/ while German tends to pronounce initial
