Lumlian Knowledge 2004

[Nathan]

With all the newer faces around I thought I'd revive this old game. Here are the rules for those who haven't played...

If you are able to answer a standing question correctly and are then confirmed by the asker, it is then your turn to ask the next question.
Please wait to be confirmed just in case your answer is not complete enough for the asker. (Sometimes answers can be confirmed by others if asker is gone for more than a day or so.)

This thread is for any question about anything Lumley except Necroscope.

There is also a thread for 'Necroscope knowledge' that you can play along with in the Necroscope Saga forum.

If you need to look up an answer in the books, go right ahead. But it's more fun if you don't...

First question...

You all know Graham Lane from Harry's childhood in Necroscope... who can tell me who the guy with the same name is and what happened to him?

[Nathan]

This one's kinda tough so here's a quick hint... it's from a short. Not a short story, but a short novel.

[Nathan]

Need another hint?

The first three words of the story's title where the answer can be found are the same as the first three words of a recent record-tying Oscar Winner.

I've now guessed the story N8, but alas I haven't read it so I'm afraid I won't be able to answer this one.

I love threads like this, the deep ones are always the best.

Are you licensed to use puns like that? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

[Nathan]

I don't believe he is, Pyb! But why didn't you answer it, since you recognized the pun? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

But he is allowed to skim through the story and find the name! Maybe even read the thing!

Apparently somebody's gonna have to! [img]grin.gif[/img]

[Nathan]

Okay, so nobody?

Here, I'll throw out an easier one until y'all catch up on your reading. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

There are three main male characters in the Mythos books: Crow, deMariginy, and...?
