ok, we all know that Zaphod was named Zaphod Beeblebrox in "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe" by Douglas Adams...So lets see about other kats' names mentioned in books....

For 100, These meerkat sisters are mostly likely named after these sisters in Marion Zimmerman Bradley's book about the women in King Arthur's life? (Name the Book as well please)

For 200, This male meerkat, while not named after this character, shares his name with an unusal Prince who declares himself the protector of Princess Angelica Shelton Belanov in a recent book by Mina Hepsen? (Name the Book as well please)

For 300, This female meerkat bears the name of an 'American hero' and escort to the Munro sisters in a book set in the British province in New York during the French and Indian War written by James Fenimore Cooper? (name the book as well, please)

For 400, This Female Meerkat shares her name with the last name of an inflential french writer born in 1840 who wrote books such as "Les Rougon-Macquart" and "La Comedie Humaine"?

For 500, The Male meerkat shares the name as a sexually frustated middle-aged man who wants to say something but is afraid to do and ultimately does not in a poem by T.S. Eliot? (Name the poem as well please)

Happy Digging!

Woo Hoo...the mists of avalon is one of my fav books ever...if you never read it kats..I suggest you do.  It is really the story of the wome3n behind the thrown and not really about king arthur.  excellent.  Plus it puts Morgana le fey in a different light.  Questions might be a tad late tomorrow as I got to work but they will be there by 3:15 central time......

The Mists of Avalon is an excellent book...I was horrified that Arthur betrayed Avalon though in it...Other than that, I loved it...I just finished Under the Blood Red Moon (Another book, I love now) and am currently reading "The Fall of Atlantis" by Marion Zimmer Bradley....
