I also
remember that all the books had a metal in the title, and
that he was writing a Vietnam novel within the other novels
that would be complete when all the books were written.
Regarding the
Dain Curse. I did some kind of story on it when it came out,
but I don't remember what. I do remember there was an action
scene in a tower or such, and the camera followed the
character throughout. It was one of the first times that a
Stedi-Cam was ever used.
