Thank you! I'd been sitting on a "Roman vampire shenanigans" request for two years, so naturally I had to verify whether my hopes had to be dashed. Am vastly reassured. :)
And - this is paranoia at this point - do you think one would treat The Man Who Died At Sea as RPF? I recently came across some information that showed that my reading/interpretation of this story is completely inaccurate: I thought it was just supernatural fiction-short story-male narrator talking about his seer mother and her semi-adventure on a ship. Apparently, this was Rosemary Sutcliff writing about her own mother who had Second Sight (?!). I wonder how it blurred the lines. Because I am definitely for completely fictionalised Seer character rather than amping up the research of Sutcliff family history. And I was more interested in exploring the options of relationships among the supporting cast. I'm now ambivalent about requesting it.
