Pretty damn accurate though. The synopsis, not the guess.

HE goes over the bar with 650000000, it's actually less.

one gerjillion?

Weyland · Post by **Weyland** » Fri Aug 03, 2007 11:31 am

I said less.

a billion? (that's about a sixth of the population of the world so if its anywhere near right I am scared!)

EDIT: must have been typing this horrendously high & innacurate guess when the post of 'less' was put on

I actually thought 325,000,000 originally, but thought it might be a bit low.

250 million? (A tad more sensible than my last guess)

Weyland · Post by **Weyland** » Fri Aug 03, 2007 11:35 am

HE is near enough - 350 million. All yours!

Sticking with classic books, The Prodigal Daughter was the follow-up to which great work of fiction?

Hmm Art & lit definitely low down on my preferences but I'll go George Eliot- Silas MArner?

Nope.

Maybe I shouldn't have thrown in the red herrings "Classic Books" and "Great Work of Fiction"

i'm pretty sure it is jeffrey archer.
but i don't know which was the prequel.
fourth estate?

SPot on there, it was his Crookedness, Jeffrey Archer.

I'll need the correct book I'm afraid - but it is one of his earlier ones.
