Having just re-read "Shadow of his Thoughts", I'm once again irked by the lines inadvertantly omitted from it's appearance in 'Amazing Stories #597'.
Page 2 has:
'Vole's hands moved faster, "I meant no offense, excellency, because certainly Your Excellency's memory is in perfect condition, the whole world is confident in Your Excellency's magnificent abilities and --" '
' "Vole?" twelve hundred years earlier, during the reign of Emperor Morell, as a gift for his wife Celina. Not long thereafter, she went mad and hanged herself from the highest of the palace's four towers. '
Now, there's obviously quite a lot missing between the first two words of that second sentence, and I'm sure that, over the years, someone MUST have queried this with JMS. Does anyone know what that missing text is?
