I was going to try to start the chapter over in my game and when I clicked the icon to play the game it asked to allow changes to be made to my computer. I said no because it never asked that before. The game still did not work so I went ahead and said yes and Voila! It works! Of course, then my Steam Store page would not load for over an hour. All the other pages worked (library and wishlist). I walked away for awhile and all is good now!

It's substantial amount of history, Fogfighter! I hope you're still enjoying it.

Lex,
I found I lost the plot a couple of times in The Shrine, mainly because of a bunch of unplanned real life interruptions. After going back and reading a couple of chapters, everything fell into place, so it wasn't Thomson's fault but my own lack of concentration that led to confusion.

While waiting for the arrival of Bennett's new Ana and Din mystery, I'm reading The Artist and the Feast by Lucy Steeds. In the first page and a third of this novel a woman is standing in front of a painting in a museum. In that short amount of time, the author provides a massive hook regarding the past that this reader couldn't resist. I will continue reading, not just because the writing is good, but because I want to know why.

Thanks, Marian!

Lex, have you kept an eye on it while it's mowing? Is your yard fenced? The age of the George and Jane Jetson is just around the corner.

Thanks.

Thanks Marian!

Fingers crossed that this will be a good one.

Years ago I had a Virtual PC in my XP computer but I don't think I'd ever attempt it again. It does seem like Big Fish is going through their catalog to see what no longer works on newer systems. I guess I better get to playing my zillions of older games

Very good news, gonna have to get them. They were some of the best. Thank you Marian

Great finish, soot!

Good one bro
