Nevermind. The Book of Merlyn was mostly rubbish, no wonder it was cut from the original publication. It was nice to see the ants and geese in their original context though; I felt like something was missing with them in The Sword in the Stone, and now I know. And Cavall's one and only line was perfect.Aren't there five parts to that? Or does 'The Book of Merlyn' not count for some reason?Just moved onto the fourth and final part of "The Once & Future King" T.H. White's Arthurian tales.
This final part is called 'Candle in the wind' which makes me think of Marilyn Monroe.
One of my favorite books, zoo theme, if it can be considered as such. Although nothing extremely explicit about sex ever appears in the book, it rather describes them both as the same Sirius-Plaxi soul. It is more a story of love, romance between two totally different species and so similar at the same time, a story that tells us that "loving" outside the norms of society is a sentenced... Although in some stanzas of the book the author Olaf describes indirectly hot scenes does not go beyond that, that doubt is left to the reader's interpretation......Sirius: A Fantasy of Love and Discord by Olaf Stapledon.
It's one of the first serious attempts at uplift xenofiction: in other words, what would it actually be like to be a super-intelligent dog? Turns out, your life would suck pretty bad. Stapledon can't write dialogue for shit, but I otherwise enjoyed it.
I actually read it a while back and I'm just flicking through it because I couldn't remember one important detail: was he fucking his foster-sister?Yes, he was. Before you get your hopes up, it's not at all sexy. The fact that I couldn't remember it should be evidence of this.

Gotta find the time. 8 months ago I was reading 1 book a month, told myself I need to start reading a lot more if I'm EVER going to get through the over 3k novels I have pirated. Since March I've ready about 40 novels, a couple in as little as 2 days.time permitting

I could not make it through the book. I guess Mark Manson and I have a different definition of living a good life. [shrugs shoulders]
