For one thing, I keep reading it as "Peace talker." For another, Peacetaker just doesn't sound dangerous, ominous, or like a villian should sound. It sounds peaceful and soft. Maybe you could translate it into another language?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26791026.post-67713163925559735622007-06-08T16:06:00.000-04:002007-06-08T16:06:00.000-04:00Hey, I actually like the idea of many possible Pea...Hey, I actually like the idea of many possible Peacekeepers walking around waiting to be activated by an amulet.

People on the other side of the world will get theirs on June 30. Now twice in a blue moon would be a rarer occurence, but that still happens once every 19 years, so every generation would have their Peacetaker, with some generations having two -- which would perhaps spawn the expression "once in a Peacetaker."<BR/><BR/>I was okay with the name "Peacetaker." What would the rest of you call the legend? (Not loving the Scourges of Serenity, EE. Sorry.) "Slayer" isn't exactly inspirational, either, but Buffy carried the title proudly.<BR/><BR/>I'm with december/stacia (see what happens when you use a pen name -- talk about an identity crisis there, d/s!). The premise sounds interesting. But the query doesn't make it sound like the story follows through on the interesting premise. Hopefully that's the fault of the query and not the book. Others have pointed out the query is all exploration of the legend. We want to see the legend in action. In fact, we just want action!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26791026.post-72284855936760020712007-06-08T13:49:00.000-04:002007-06-08T13:49:00.000-04:00I knew a closet mythology expert once.

She'd launch into a tale about Bobo the trickster god, who took great pride in always leaving you one hanger short. Or his nemesis, Starchtaker, who ensured that no matter how many times you ironed them, your khakis would always be wrinkled. They were in some weird ethereal love triangle with Gushy, the god of Sentimental Crap Stored Way Up High In A Shoebox. I wish I remembered more, but I usually fell asleep about halfway through.Blogless Trollhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983848259551488867noreply@blogger.com
