So does this mean that you can tell us what exactly the whole ancient sunlight thing is all about?
Nope, no clue! But there's time yet. If it's a Williamson motif it'll come up again (and again) and with enough whacks of the hammer even I will get the message eventually.
I'm not necessarily convinced (YET) that Williamson is all that into the Nordic races being superior. He's gotten noticeably into races, and racial consciousness, and the deep racial affinities of the English and German people, and The Soil, and his blonde wife being blonde, but there's less of a posture of superiority than you'd find in the average Golden Age murder mystery - I mean, he might perfectly well be thinking it, but it's not a big part of the text. Yet?? I don't know; it's the home stretch and anything could happen.
