Bonus info: the alien-looking creature on the right is his girlfriend. He was raised around that species, the Vardruls, with his mother being the only other human, and he applied sorcery to become as much like a Vardrul as possible because he felt alienated from his peers.

The Sorcerer’s Heir by Paula Volsky. Cover art was by James Warhola. It’s the second book in a trilogy from the late ‘80s.

All instances of the link in public either reroute to the main NANDA page or have been replaced by the access form to request access to the research.

- Comment on Google tests replacing 'I'm Feeling Lucky' with 'AI Mode' 9 months ago:
I hadn’t realized the “lucky” button was still in use. The first result in Google searches is so much less likely to be of value now than it had been back when search was still unenshittified that I guessed they’d have done away with the ‘one result’ option.
If they left the lucky option as a fully functional silver arrow, they lose some revenue they’d otherwise have gotten by forcing you to sift through bad results.

Regarding this:
would you want previews of content requiring login, perhaps with a risk of accidentally changing related logged in state?
Absolutely not, no. Many platforms have a wait period prior to user-requested account deletion during which logging back in will halt the deletion request.
