Looks good to me, though I think the text of the pre-chapter verse shold be changed to stand out more... italics perhaps?

The ability to click through the chapter summaries would be a good feature as well.

Would be good to have a navigation systm. But from what I see in the way Rake has written the php (notice I make this assumption from the URL, so could be totally wrong) it'd mean some re posting of the chapter summaries or extra work for Rake.

Imperial Historian, I presume you mean being able to click back - next from chapter to chapter. It probably could be done, but it'll be too much hassle to do it :) .

Ok, no problem would be a nice feature but if it's too much hassle don't bother.

OK who do I send summaries to? Just done the prologue for GotM and wanted to see if the style and content is ok. I pretty much kept to HUME's format. Should be doing one every two days or so from now on, now that New Year and Xmas is over and work should be a bit less insane. :)

Looked through the summaries, noticed a few minor errors:

Prologue: "Whiskeyjack, a Bridgeburner and the Emperors elite." should be one of the Emperors elite?

Chapter One: There's no metion of the seer rigga's death and the fact that she possesed apsalar to protect her from the subsequent possesion by cotillion, which is a fairly important point

Chapter Two: "Just before Hairlock is selenced he ignites the fires of Tayshrenn's potential betrayal." should be "silenced"

I've corrected the spello's...
I'll wait to hear from BAD about what he wants to add in re Rigga.... I have the feeling that he was trying to produce a spoilerless summary.

Exactly that Hetan. I was also trying to keep it pretty succinct, if i mentioned everything I may as well just write out the chapter. I thought the summaries were just for helping you find things you forgot or wanted to re-read etc. In general if someone just mentions the character or a scene around what you are trying to find you normally find it pretty quick. I do anyways. Though edit as you wish. =P

I'll do some more soon, not been reading much lately. But I have next week off work so I should be able to squeeze a few out. :)
