Dear Bernard, I`m now in the middle of reading Heretic and don`t want it to end, Just a couple of questions which may seem to you perdantic, although I hope not;it`s just that I visualise a lot when I`m reading.On page 13 it is describing the surcoat of the Earl of Northampton as a blue field with a white diagonal stripe on which 3 red stars are blazoned and the blue field occupied by yellow lions. Then on page 92 I believe it is the same heraldic flag being flown at Castillon D`Arbizon but this states the diagonal white stripe as having 3 white stars, not red. Then I noticed that on page Astarac is spelt wrongly and the last discrepency is that the Cistercian monks wear white robes as you mention on page 152 but when descibing Father Planchard unlocking the chest in the hidden vault on page 157 you mention that he takes the key from under his black robe. I just like to get things in my visualization right. I have to also get the map of France in my head to see where the places are in relationship with each other and see in my mind the N.S.E.W. As we have lived in the Cathars area of France I find this even more absorbing and love reading your Grail Quest series. Many thanks for taking the time to read this E-mail. Jan Geggus
