(Amy Sheldon)
Special thanks and my eternal gratitude to Paul Farris, Donal Fellows, and Jonathan Yen, who let me use information that they had already gathered and pounded into useable form. I am grateful for their hard work, and their graciousness in allowing me to swipe^H^H^H^H^H utilize their efforts.
And, of course, I could never forgive myself if I forgot to thank Anthony Chan, who 'waaaay back in 1994 began the grim task of hacking together an Eddings FAQ (he eventually gave it up and decided to do something a bit easier - complete his medical degree.)
Thanks also to:
Daniel Peters, for the original list of German titles, and Denis
Aumueller, who sent the titles of Eddings' other works and added ISBNs.
Raul de Vincenzi, Geoff Hunter and Ginger941, who provided help with ISBNs, as well as a few encouraging words.
Joy Green, who provided the descriptions for High Hunt and The Losers
Arto Repola, who provided the Finnish version of the titles.
Francis Cornet, who provided the French titles and ISBNs.
Patrik Montgomery, who provided the Swedish titles.
Marcello Manicardi, who provided the Italian titles.
And, of course, Kalten, who provided the best commentary I've received on this FAQ since it came out (unfortunately, much of it isn't suitable for a family publication...)
Aphrael's thanks:
Amy Sheldon, for entrusting me to take over the maintenance of the FAQ and for having it so well written to begin with so that all I had to do was add a few things.
Rumor and Peta Young, for their parts in hammering out some of the theories I've added to the FAQ.
Ian Hutcherson, for all his work organizing the #eddings channel.
Sarabian's thanks:
Aphrael and Amy Sheldon, the previous two FAQ maintainers, for making the job of doing an update so easy. Having such an excellent base to work with made the job so much easier.
Vanan, for getting the whole update moving and also for setting up the IRC channel for discussion about the FAQ.
Kamion, for provided some excellent information especially regarding the foreign titles. Both Vanan and Kamion had HTML versions of the FAQ, but special thanks must also go to Ian Hutcherson for creating the original version and setting up the Geocities site.
Aquarius, Rumor, Charles Meigh, Simon Nickerson, Itagne, Daniel Peters, Dominic Wynn, Aslade, Ce'Nedra, Bernadette Crumb (aka Taiba), Anna Davies and Kalten, all for providing valuable information, being excellent reviewers and finding all my mistakes.
And many, many more people on alt.fan.eddings for thinking of the questions and making my job simple by providing the answers.
Dave's thanks
Amy Sheldon, for putting in all the work towards creating the document in the first place and for maintaining it for so many years.
Aphrael, for writing the majority of the Elenium/Tamuli section herself.
Sarabian, for creating the FAQ addendum and thus making this a great deal easier as well as for helping review and edit the final document.
Kamion, for contributing the IRC helper section, among many others, and for going a long way towards recovering the FAQ from its MIT autoposting status, and for reviewing and editing the final document.
Itagne, for contributing various additions and corrections to the FAQ, especially additions to the foreign titles section, and for continuing to find the most blatant mistakes that the rest of us missed.
Jaycey, for helping fix some spacing problems in the document (a more boring task, I have trouble imagining) and for further editing the document by fixing grammatical errors and removing personalizations that had been missed by the earlier editors.
