The Garrett Files books by Glen Cook lists high among my favorite books. Garrett, a human detective, works the mean street of Tun Faire, rubbing elbows with a variety of creatures -- orcs, elves, dwarves, and volatile redheads. One of his associates is a dark elf/human breed by the name of Morley Dotes who runs a vegetarian restaurant but earns his living as 'a bone breaker and a life taker.' He may look attractive but you don't want to be on his bad side.

OH my Gawd!! I thought no one else on the face of this planet had EVER read the Garrett Files!! I say glen cook they say Black Company! Just wish Cook would hurry up and release more Garrett. Just dont like how at the end of the series Morley got all prissy-butt and didnt like to have FUN anymore!! That's why my favourite book of the series is Sweet Silver Blues! YES, this is EXACTLY how I pictured Morley, kinda smug and REALLY handsome! Such a great drawing, and such a talented arteest you are!!

Wow, there's three of us? I never read the Black Company series, it's not really my type of book, I think. I'm just waiting for another in the series. I have almost memorized all the others. I'm not getting any younger and still nothing on the horizon.....

WRT drawing, it is great. I like to think of Morley with long hair, and a little darker skin, especially considering his heritage. However, it is a very good drawing of how I would picture Morley. I would love to see a picture/painting in color.

I agree with Jennifer about Morley's change in "attitude." Again, his new demeanor does not seem to fit his heritage. Still, I love the series, and I love the characters.

Any color paintings out there for sale?

Peace,

MD

Nice eyes and hair. I like how you gave him a realistic face too. Not to pretty, kind of something a little off about the symetry and dimensions. Attractive, but not overly so, and kind of puts you on edge...
