I haven't actually read Usher's Passing before --- I think it's the only McCammon I haven't read. I'll have to give it a try. Emily

I love the way he manages to avoid most of the cliches in it. "Swan Song" is probably my favourite post-apocalyptic novel; I can't recall any I liked better atm, though "The Postman" is very good. My favourite of his is "Usher's Passing", which is truly excellent, and has quite a few frights in it. I have read it 3 or 4 times; and when I bought it, I didn't think a sequel to "The Fall of the House of Usher" would be any good; I was just strapped for something to read, and thought that as "Swan Song" and "They Thirst" were so good it had to have some redeeming features. Regards Morgan PS: Anyone read "Lovers Living, Lovers Dead" by Richard Lortz? --- Pam Gearhart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > My favorite part of Nightbird was the sequence > toward the middle, with the Indian (Native > American).
