Does anyone know where I could get the FK book "On Holy Ground" by Jean
Graham? I have been looking for it for a while and can't find it. If you
know where I can get a copy or have any ideas of where to look please
contact me off list. Thanks.

In my opinion, the second hour/episode of _Drive_ is where Kristen
Lehmen's new character becomes interesting. (Though of course I'm
more interested in Urs, because she is of FK.) <shrug>
Stated carefully to avoid spoilers, I'm only up to the second episode
of the four that have aired, but it was in the second (with the
development of KL's character) that I began to think that this new
show might touch on one of the things I love best in *FK*: quest
structure, long-term striving. While so far none of the characters
seem to be driven by Nick's very particular choice-gone-wrong and
redemption paradigms, there is an element of second chance or last
chance that resonates with me on a similar frequency to FK.
Anyway, while I haven't fallen in love with the show, I'm not ready
to pronounce it a loss. :-)
So, having made that comparison, I naturally imagine Nick in the
_Drive_ scenario, crossover style. What if Nick were corralled into
a secret illegal cross-continent road race? In the caddy, no
less! Oh, woe, the gas consumption. Would he drive only at night
and hide in the trunk while his partner drove during the day? I can
imagine Lacroix pulling the strings on something like this, and I
could imagine, in the FK universe, that once you got the competitors
"off the grid" and into the race, where they might no longer be as
much missed by the authorities, a certain percentage would fall as
vampire prey, so when Nick discovered that it would open a
second-front plot in the story, as he would have to protect the other
racers as well as win, for whatever motivation he had been pulled
into the race ... anyone want to write it? ;-)
