Well I'd probably not have got the historical ones, having never read those, although I had some idea just from reading the summaries online. But then I probably wouldn't have entered a competition without having read them first!
If I'd re-read the others recently, I might have got the rest, but I couldn't, off the top of my head, remember the song fast enough, or Miss Cromwell's nickname, or Patrick's words in the dust, or the book Lawrie had to read to help with the Tempest, or even the name of her set-piece at the festival, although I'd have remembered with time. I don't know if I'd ever have got the Gondal one, because I tend to skip through those bits pretty quickly when I'm reading that one - the names are all familiar, but I don't really follow the Gondal plot all that well, so who betryed whom would be a bit beyond me! Again though I suppose I'd have mugged up on it a bit if I'd been entering a competition, so I guess I'd have read it more thoroughly.
So she's into the second round - shame they can't have the Marlow books again then, but with harder questions!
