phew! (wipes brow) I think that hobbling feature was one of my last minute changes. I had just finished reading Wilfred Thesiger's Arabian Sands and took out all the camel insults, as well (Goewin calls T's camel "noble" at one point)
I'm hoping to hear about a new book sometime soon.
You and me both! My editor is reading it right now.
