Triad, and other books that inspired Stevie
 
I've never read Triad, but I think I'm going to buy a copy. It sounds really interesting; just the sort of thing I like! Anyway, are there any other books that we know of that have inspired Stevie?

I like Triad... it's a little odd, not what I was expecting. All those horrible colors that woman talks about painting her house... blech! :laugh: It's a good little read though... I need to dig it back out! I still need to track down the Mabinogian, and learn more about the real Rhiannon and other Welsh goddesses Stevie is so enamored with.

Triad is one of those books I couldn't put down. I read it ~back to front~ (as Stevie would say). it was a very light read.

I have Ceremony of the Innocent that I've been trying to get around to reading for a few years but never seem to.

Ya, also those Rhiannon books by Evangelene Walton (sp?).

Nathaniel Hawthorne's Rappaccini's Daughter is what Running through the Garden is based on.

I own Triad and Ceremony of the Innocent. Can't get around to Ceremony but I consider Triad to be one of my favorite books now. It was a great quick read.

Sometime ago I heard that Stevie was reading the Wheel of Fortune by Susan Howatch - not sure if it inspired her but its a good read.:thumbsup:

I tried to read the Mabinogion by Evangeline Walton and did read some of it but found it hard going.:shrug:

Isn't Triad out of print? Where did y`all get it? I would love to read it. Even if it's not good... but it sounds interesting.

I found my copy of Triad and Mick's Autobio at my neighborhood used book store. I'm amazed at the rare stuff I find in there. Growing up, my local library actually had a copy of Triad too, but that was 15 years ago probably.

There's a whole bunch on Amazon for real cheap, like a dollar.

I bought Triad from eBay for 99p. It's such a great book - I read it in a day.

I really liked the Mabinogian. I had already a copy of the Song of Rhiannon book, but wanted the full set, and am so glad I did get it. I loved all of it.

i never realized that Rhiannon was such a wicked little girl. "Wouldn't you love to love her?" HELL NO! SHE'S A BRAT! LOL!:laugh:
