Hey, Folks. Sorry for the delay replying. Life kicked in ;'-O
Thanks for the kind words.
I must admit that in the meantime, I took out a library copy of 'Harbour', but couldn't get into it at all.
Very disappointing after the above.
Anyhoo, keep fighting the good fight!
Yours,
Brian.

To be fair, I didn't find Harbour the easiest book to read. I have only read it once, but I enjoyed the audiobook a lot more.

"Harbor" is still my favorite book out of the entire JAL's oeuvre. I found it easily accessible and effortlessly read. I enjoyed all the characters and I did not find them unfamiliar due to their country of origin. "Harbor" is one of the few books that I was sorry to see come to an end.
Plus, after "LTROI" , "Harbor" seemed to be the one work of fiction that can be effortlessly turned into big screen movie or a miniseries.

'Harbour'.

If I come across the audiobook, I'll give it a whirl.
Personally, I've never taken it as a good sign that a novel can be turned into a screenplay and then reach the tv and / or cinema.
Over and out.
Brian.
