Missing Travelbook

Hi all,
Does anyone know why Bradshaw et al cant jump out to the Outland to give TN her travelbook back? They recovered it and so they know she can't jump, but they dont make an attempt to give it to her. In earlier books, Tiggy appeared in TN's kitchen as did the Emperor, so we know they can do it :)

Cheers,
Rich

Hi Trikky, I can't answer your question - it's an interesting one.

It is a long time since I read FAS, so I can't remember the circumstances. Do they know that it is her travelbook, for instance? Hopefully someone else will be along soon with an answer, or failing that, why not e-mail the man himself?

Hey SkidMarks ;) Great name by the way :) I am pretty sure that they know its hers as one of them volunteers the info to TN that they have it.

I thought I was maybe missing something that others had not missed but if no-one blows me out the water, I will email JF :)

Cheers,
Rich

Having just reread it for the guide, they are being watched and most of them have been sent back to their books.

Them jumping out would make them PageRunners and subject to an erase-on-site order.
