I think that was what made me so interested in the books the first time I read them. I kept on waiting for the rest of the characters to hit Covenant on the head and tell him to just accept it. Most of them didn't and I was enthralled by the Land. I have rarely come across such worlds, where lack of coercion extends to the emotional sphere as well. I also liked the changes the Land and its inhabitants effect in Covenant. Ritu --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
