Clench Racing

Anyone who has read The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, or tried to read it, will understand this wonderful game. Clench Racing:

The rules are simple. Each player takes a different volume of The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, and at the word 'go' all open their books at random and start leafing through, scanning the pages. The winner is the first player to find the word 'clench'. It's a fast, exciting game -- sixty seconds is unusually drawn-out -- and can be varied, if players get too good, with other favourite Donaldson words like wince, flinch, gag, rasp, exigency, mendacity, articulate, macerate, mien, limn, vertigo, cynosure.... It's a great way to get thrown out of bookshops. Good racing!
