LO: LO's Secrets

Postby Lord Boreal » Tue Feb 08, 2005 3:56 pm

I don't know if this was discussed before, I'm relatively new here... But I noticed that there are quite a few hidden details like the book written by Mrs. Coulter and the other one written by the Palmerian Professor. Has anyone else found some other details like these?

Lots of them. Nicholas Outram (PP's middle names) for example. (Palladio's Quattro Libri exist in our universe too, they are a seminal work on architecture).

I won't spoil things by listing them all, because that would deny you the pleasure of discovering them. Google is a good place to start - and learn all about Joscelyn Godwin and Athanasius Kircher!

Thanks a lot! I'll start searching right away! I guess there's a bit more to LO than that short story...

This is what I keep saying to people who think LO was a disappointment. It's no accident that I have passed on my HDM volumes now, but have retained my LO!

And look what happens between Famagusta and Latakia ;)

I'll start reading LO again to catch all of the details... But I don't think I would ever have the heart to pass on my HDM volumes! I guess I'm too sentimental :lol:
