What is 'The Sable Quean?'
[edit]I think it's some sort of ship, but if 'Quean' is indeed a play on 'Queen,' then it's probably a creature.Rotwang's Son 01:12, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
In the article
[edit]It says He usually uses "sable" to describe a dark furred creature and quean means a mean old woman, but you may be right. Sambrook the otter File:Sambrook.jpg Talk! 02:53, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
- If I recall correctly, a sable is a mammal which is a bit like a pine marten. Laburnum 23:50, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
Sable Quean...
[edit]I'm so excited!!! It sounds really good, but then again... All of BJ's books are good. =D Sable does mean dark furred, or whatever. Quean means witch, or evil lady. So...I bet that this'll be interesting.
Maybe it'll be another maaaad kitty. Hehehe. Inside joke (my sister had a cat that we nicknamed Tsarmina, cause she was quite the demon, so we said maaaaad kitty all the time =D).

Let's Not Forget
[edit]Sable can also be used to refer to a marten (Martes zibellina to be exact). It is both color and animal so let's not rule too much out. It sounds in the title to be used as a creature more than the color describing it. Just don't rule out the possibility that it could also be like the "Lord of the Forest" (Mattimeo) and really just be a landmark. ferretfang File:Dramatic Ferret.jpg Talk! 16:06, 15 November 2008 (UTC) 22:04, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
maybe
[edit]frankly, I hope Fangorn illustrates it- he's my favorite artist. I wonder- moles are black-furred, but moles are good too, hmm . . . I'm interested in the Warrior mole- I think it's going to be a Rewall CHampion. Now, if only a FEMALE otter could wield the sword of Martin . . .
