zacs, ive looked at those pics and i dont recognise him, or any of the other characters in the pics. and after reading the synopsis, i dont think my book can have been called gnole after all. there were pretty much only the man who was lost and this creature that used to appear and disappear like a cheshire cat, who sometimes helped him and sometimes didnt. the whole story was the interaction between the two.
Chrysaor i cant find a review for the rope version, but the title sounds too wordy, and i dont recall anything about any rope!
any other ideas?
