The example I've thought of being "The Game of Glory." Because I think filming this story would need mimimal special effects, aside of course, depicting a being as large as A'u!<br /><br /> A film version of "The Glame of Glory" could be easily done mostly in a tropical part of Earth, altho the very beginning is set on a wintry world. It would be interesting to see how Flandry's bleak pessimism about the Empire is shown even as he goes doggedly about thwarting as many as the designs of Merseia and her agents as he could.<br /><br /> SeanSean M.
