Cloaks

A miracle of sorts occured, and I've recovered my paperback copies of TTT and RotK. No idea where FotR is, and someone still has my hardbound, anyway...I now can quote from the books and don't have to rely on my memory (failing) and the audio CDs.

Here's a quote on cloaks:

Point is is that there is no reason for the cloaks to function intermittently; either they hide the wearer all of the time or not. PJ just decided to use them in one instance to create tension and to show a cool effect (the cloak that looks just like a rock). Beyond that, they are ordinary, though well-made, cloaks.
