Best Free Intrusion Prevention and Detection Utility for Home Use (HIPS)
In a Hurry?
Go straight to the Quick Selection Guide or the Comments for this article.
Gone are the days when a virus was a virus and everything else was - well – different! Now known collectively as "Malware" these threats are constantly evolving and pose a serious challenge to security software. Signature based scanners give the most reliable detection results but these are limited by the frequency of their database updates. To compliment signature recognition software HIPS programs were developed which look for behavior on your PC which is "characteristic of malware activity". The user is then presented with an alert to either allow or block the event. Some programs automate this process which can occasionally lead to problems. See my article "HIPS Explained" which deals with this and other issues in more detail.
Evaluating the performance of HIPS programs is far from easy and any so called "test results" should be viewed with a degree of caution. It is straightforward enough to feed malware files to a selection of signature scanners and then count what they find to arrive at a score. AV Comparatives provides an admirable service here and the results are always consistent and reliable. There is no such definition line possible for testing HIPS software and my feeling is that some of the vendors may possibly use this to their own advantage ("hype").
Review Criteria
Malware Defender was formerly a commercial program, but this excellent HIPS changed ownership a while back and a new version was released as freeware. The sequence of events relating to this event is set out quite nicely here if anyone is interested. Just follow the thread through.
I'd like to state at the outset that this type of program is not for the faint hearted. To use it effectively, and avoid the possibility damaging your system, you will need a reliable knowledge of Windows processes and services. You will also need to pay close attention to the information displayed in the alerts, and the options associated with each one. Luckily, the program installs by default into learning mode which reduces the number of initial alerts to a minimum. That said, it's essential that you only install Malware Defender into a clean system otherwise you'll just be creating "allow" rules for your malware collection to function normally. Everyone has their favorite apps for system cleaning, but my choice would be these. First scan with your resident antivirus and then with HitmanPro and Malwarebytes. You might also like to look at the VBA32 Antirootkit program which will tell you which sections of its scan came up "clean" and which need some further investigation. It will also check the digital signatures of all your files. Anything identified as suspicious can be uploaded to Virus Total for a final check.
In addition to the usual file, registry and application modules, Malware Defender also provides network protection should you choose to enable it, including a connections monitor. This makes it the ideal companion for anyone using Windows own firewall, but wanting more detailed control. It also scores very highly in the Matousec tests for those inclined to value the results.
It was difficult to know exactly where to place Malware Defender in terms of a review rating. For what it does it's an excellent performer but the complexities of using it make it unsuitable for average users. Mistakes can be rectified by changing rule permissions from the log entries, although if you've already denied a vital system function, your screen might now be empty!
WinPatrol has been helping to protect computers for more than ten years. With DSA now only available as part of the Privatefirewall package the options for standalone programs of this type have been reduced still further. Maybe then this is the right time to re-visit an old favorite of many users which is still in development and more than capable of providing this extra layer of security.
WinPatrol has many advocates and has recently been upgraded to achieve greater compatibility for Vista and Windows 7 users. It's main objective is to warn you about alterations to your system which may be malware generated. It does this by taking a snapshot of your system settings and alerting you to any changes. WinPatrol operates using a heuristic approach which makes it more likely to find new malware than traditional signature based scanners which are heavily reliant on updates.
WinPatrol will alert you to new program activations as well and is effective across a whole range of malware including worms, trojans, cookies, adware and spyware. Even stuff designed to replicate itself on your system is with WinPatrol's reach. You can also use WinPatrol to filter unwanted cookies and IE add-ons. An added bonus is that WinPatrol will also deal with the problems it finds so you won't need another program to do this for you.
As of V19.0, WinPatrol becomes a "Cloud Edition". Mostly the extra features will only benefit users of the paid Plus version. One part of the WinPatrol Cloud though is a poll where the WinPatrol community of users can provide personal feedback on files that are detected. The poll data will be available to both FREE and PLUS users.
MJ Registry Watcher is another application that maybe not too many people are aware of. It is a simple registry, file and directory hooker/poller that safeguards the most important startup files, registry keys, and other more exotic registry locations commonly attacked by Trojans. It has very low resource use, and is set to poll every 30 seconds by default, although you can adjust this if required. A configuration file stores all your settings for future use. MJRW not only polls the system, but it also hooks it, so that most changes to keys, files and directories are reported instantaneously. Key deletions are still caught by the polling loop though, since they cannot be hooked. Exactly which keys and files are protected can be completely configured by the user, although the sets supplied with MJRW will cover most standard PCs. You do need better than average knowledge to get the best from this software but users in this category who prefer to combine small light applications to create a layered security solution should definitely check it out. Installation is not required, simply run the program from whichever directory you un-zip it to.
The program now also includes: Process Launch Monitoring, Folder and File Hooking, EMailing of Alerts and Quarantining of Files and Directories.
There is an active thread for this software at Wilders forum here: http://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=54666 The author, Mark Jacobs, also maintains a range of other free software on his website and will respond to emails for support if requested.

Any other standalone HIPS that can be recommended since the original date this article was printed? Also, how is the HIPS feature rated in Private firewall?
by MidnightCowboy on 1. November 2014 - 4:19 (119427)
The value of HIPS as a standalone program has degraded over time. At one point there were many to choose from including what was IMO the best, EQSecure. Online Armor started life as a HIPS before a firewall was added and the Privatefirewall HIPS component, DSA, (Dynamic Security Agent) was also available as a separate program. Now most HIPS are integrated into a firewall and highly automated in an attempt to prevent users from making a wrong decision and crippling their system.
ZoneAlarm Free firewall is a good example of a lightweight integrated HIPS that does "enough" but without being too intrusive.
Many antivirus programs now also include similar components to protect against unauthorized registry changes for instance.
The HIPS component in Privatefirewall was always highly regarded.
Users should however take some time to research the benefits of these components properly and not be swayed by "test" sites such as Matousec that claim one product offers more "protection" than another. To get a true value of firewall protection performance, this is a much better and far more accurate resource.
Note how highly the built in Microsoft firewall performs. :)
In terms of new standalone HIPS, I've not seen anything else to warrant inclusion here.
In general terms my advice would be to use Windows firewall together with an antivirus with strong web filtering capabilities such as Panda or Forticlient.
WinPatrol free will add an extra layer against the type of system altering code associated with toolbars and browser hijacks without users needing to resort to a full blown HIPS.
Otherwise, following safe surfing practices will reduce your exposure risk to a minimum anyway. MC - Site Manager.
This may be old news to some here, but it was news to me today.
WinPatrol has apparently been sold to Ruiware.
According to the WinPatrol site, nothing will change and the new owner says he plans to continue as before.
I was aware Mr. Pytlovany has had some personal issues, I thank him for everything and wish him the best....

About MJ Registry Watcher:
How can you write "Installation is not required, simply run the program from whichever directory you un-zip it to." and then "There is no portable version of this product available."?

Ending Hunger And Poverty
Our work starts with you. It ends in a world without hunger & poverty.
Animals are the backbone of our work. They provide life-sustaining products such as milk, eggs, cheese, honey and wool. For each animal received, families agree to pass on the offspring of that animal to another person in need. In that act, families become the cycle of positive change. We've seen communities hold fast to this idea. In some places, 22 generations of Heifer animals can be traced. On average, Passing on the Gift lasts for at least nine generations, no matter the project.See Heifer's Work in Zambia
Clean Water
Clean water is the foundation of health and prosperity. That's why we often teach families and communities about managing their water resources through sustainable agriculture. Heifer also helps many families install treadle pumps, practice water conservation and use organic fertilizers to protect drinking water to keep protect them from waterborne diseases.See Heifer's Work in Bangladesh
Heifer empowers mothers to be able to work and become self-sufficient, to send their children to school and to pay medical bills. Our work unlocks the potential in every woman so she can and will work her way out of hunger and poverty.See Heifer's Work in Malawi
Education and Training
Caring for animals is a responsibility we insist our families don't take lightly. Each of our farmers goes through extensive training in animal care, feeding and health before they are given a Heifer animal. We work with families as they learn a new way of living. Through our Cornerstones and Values Based Holistic Development trainings we help families gain a new mindset and way of relating that will free them from the psychological and social effects of years of poverty.See Heifer's Work in Southern Ghana
Sustainable Farming
Farming is the most core, elemental human role. It has been the foundation of thriving civilizations and societies. We believe it is no different today. That's why Heifer works with communities and small-scale farmers. We see in them the future. We know that with just a little help, small farms in impoverished nations can be transformed.See Heifer's Work in Zambia

Hi: 12° Lo:7°
By Laura Maltby Thursday 10 January 2013 Updated: 10/01 08:24
THE MOTHER of a soldier killed in Afghanistan has described vandalism to her son's memorial bench as "gut wrenching".
The wooden bench in memory of Lance Corporal Paul Muirhead, who was killed by the Taliban in Afghanistan in 2006, was taken from outside the Snitterfield Arms on Friday night (January 4).
It was carried through the village, damaged and then dumped.
Mr Muirhead's mother Violet spoke out about the attack on television, saying: "It really felt as if they might as well have jumped on top of his grave.
"I know it sounds dramatic but it is really gut wrenching to think someone could do it. It is just as if someone has said 'he doesn't matter any more'."
The bench, which his friends had originally raised money to pay for, had been chained to the floor but was forced free.
It was recovered by family friend Fiona Booth on Sunday after being spotted dumped behind a garage.
She expressed her disbelief that "anyone that could damage something that meant so much to people and that was dedicated in his memory", adding: "the damage done is just sacrilege."
Lance Corporal Muirhead, of 1 Royal Irish Regiment, was 28 when he died from wounds sustained during a Taliban attack on his base at Musa Quala in Helmand Province on September 1 2006.
His commanding officer described him as a "calm confident and determined and widely respected" soldier who had served in Northern Ireland, Iraq and Afghanistan.
And on the same night, arsonists caused thousands of pounds worth of damage to the nearby pavillion at Snitterfield Cricket Club.
Firefighters were called to the Wolverton Road club around 10pm to deal with a fire started in the home changing room.
Lee Hillier, chairman of Snitterfield Cricket Club, said: "The whole lot could have burnt down but as it is, there was only severe smoke damage.
"We think it was done for a cheap thrill as whoever did it didn't steal any of our equipment.
Mr Hillier was a founding member of the club ten years ago and helped raise funds to transform the original pavillion from a desolate building to one which now is home to junior and adult cricket and football teams.
The building is owned by the parish council who will be filing an insurance claim. But the insurance only covers the building, meaning the club will be forced to pick up the bill for the damaged contents which include bats, helmets and other training equipment.
He added: "We took the building on originally and were able to do it up thanks to support from local businesses but now we're back to square one again - unfortunately we're a very small club and we're on a shoestring budget.
"Although it may not affect the cricket season as that doesn't start until April, it's early days and we have to find a temporary solution which means the football club could potentially have to move until the situation is resolved.
"We're all devastated because the culprit has probably done it in the heat of the moment for a small kick but for both our clubs the consequences and damage will be much longer lasting."

Snow SkiingUnknown Artist
Canadian Pacific Quebec Ski Poster
Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) was incorporated on February 16, 1881. Less than five years later a ribbon of steel united Canada when the line to the Pacific coast was completed with the driving of the 'Last Spike' at Craigellachie, British Columbia, on November 7, 1885. By the 1920s, CPR had become known as the 'World's Greatest Travel System'. That slogan helped CPR promote its renowned transcontinental passenger trains, a chain of luxury hotels and a fleet of steamships. Since its beginnings, CPR commissioned many well-known artists and even went so far as to build an in-house team of graphic artists and printers to illustrate the company's vast empire. As a result, Canadian Pacific made a significant contribution to the art of poster design. Today, CPR operates on about 14,000 miles of rail lines in Canada and the United States and is among the largest freight railways in North America.

Wait.... i thought the intel gpu could already accept video from another local gpu, which was what PRIME was for. How does this differ.
Phoronix: Intel Driver Gains Virtual/Remote Output Support
The Intel X.Org driver has gained virtual output support to extend the local desktop with remote outputs. Simply put, this can help NVIDIA Optimus/Bumblebee users on Linux...
Wait.... i thought the intel gpu could already accept video from another local gpu, which was what PRIME was for. How does this differ.
I'm not sure I'm actually getting what this commit is about.
I've been familiar with Bumblebee, VirtualGL and Primus for quite a while, and now I'm using nvidia-prime, so I understand the difference between what Bubmblebee does and what PRIME does (the zero copy performance advantage...).
But here I don't get it... What does it do exactly ? Can it be set up as a transport option for Bumblebee (with no other, or just a little, piece of code needed) ? Is there any performance gain compared to Primus ? Does it allow switching off nvidia-card when you're not using it ?
Yes, this is only for those people who choose not to use PRIME. The kernel level integration with PRIME is the right approach from the performance, power and usability standpoint. And the VirtualHeads can be made driver independent by building that functionality into the Xserver (along with the external transport process) and using providers - i.e. accelerated Xvnc.
Thank's for your great job with the Intel Graphics driver! My Thinkpad T430 works very well with the intel open source driver!
But I have a question about this new feature: Does this allow me to use the display-port connection in my notebook?
Because it is hardwired to the nvidia chip and up until now there hasn't been a way to use it on linux (afaik) with the intel driver. I interpreted the news like this could finally be possible :-) but I'm now a little bit confused because you sad that it doesn't add features which did not exist before.
Thank's in advance!
nice regards
The alternative approach is to use -nouveau and PRIME.
So, where do we start if we want to try this ? Assuming it lands soon in xorg-edgers, what tools do we need to get it running (bbswitch to wake up the discrete GPU, some tool to configure the virtualhead, to make sure the application openGL rendering is done by the nvidia card, then kill the virtualhead and bbswitch again to to switch off the discrete GPU) ?
Could this be mixed with the new nvidia RandR 1.4 support (can we get the nvidia card to render directly to the virtualhead, with the new zero copy option ?)
Last edited by Nepenthes; 09-02-2013 at 11:17 AM.
0. Install the latest Intel drivers
1. apt-get install bumblebee-nvidia

There is nothing stopping you from trying... In theory, PRIME should be able to negotiate zero-copy support just as well through the kernel (and hopefully control the synchronisation better and so be easier to use and higher performance and integrate better into power management etc etc).Could this be mixed with the new nvidia RandR 1.4 support (can we get the Nvidia card to render directly to the virtualhead, with the new zero copy option ?)

The Gentoo Linux Project
Gentoo Linux is a community driven project committed to producing
high quality opensource software. These release notes for Gentoo Linux 2005.0
summarize important package updates, security updates, and many other changes
that have happened since Gentoo Linux 2004.3
Table of Contents
Important Changes for 2005.0
Security Updates
Gentoo Linux 2005.0 contains security updates to address GLSAs
(Gentoo Linux Security Advisories) numbered 200410-27 to 200503-17.
Individual GLSAs can be referenced by going to
http://www.gentoo.org/security/en/glsa/glsa-$x.xml, and substituting $x
with the desired GLSA number.
For more information, please consult the the
Gentoo Linux Security Project home page.
Critical Package Updates
Important package-versions in this release:
There are two kernels available on the livecd that will run on both, uniprocessor and smp
machines. The first one, gentoo, is for all AMD K8 systems and is NUMA capable. The
second one, gentoo-em64t is a generic x86-64 kernel with SMP support that should run
on all systems.
For information about how to change your profile please read the
Gentoo/AMD64 2005.0 upgrade guide
Warning: Please follow above guide by the letter, or your system may end up unusable.
Portage Updates
The Portage version included in this release is 220.127.116.11 and
the ChangeLog
can be found via our online CVS repository.
Userland Updates
Documentation Updates
Much consideration and time has been spent on the Gentoo Installation Handbook in
order to get it more in sync with Gentoo 2005.0. Please note that it is a constant
work in progress, and if any bugs are encountered, please refer them to the Gentoo Linux
bugtracking system at http://bugs.gentoo.org.
Upgrading and Installation of Gentoo Linux 2005.0
Installing Gentoo Linux 2005.0
The entire Gentoo Linux installation process is documented
in the Gentoo Handbook.
Each architecture offers three LiveCDs. The first one being a universal
bootable LiveCD which can be used to install with or without an Internet connection.
The second LiveCD is a non-bootable subarch-optimized Gentoo Reference Platform (GRP)
LiveCD which contains precompiled binaries of popular
programs such as X.org-x11, KDE, and GNOME. The third LiveCD is a bootable minimal LiveCD
that is smaller in size and includes only the basics needed to simply boot a machine.
At minimum, the universal or minimal LiveCD is required to boot the machine and install Gentoo.
The universal LiveCD requires an Internet connection to install from a stage1
installation tarball, but does not require an Internet connection to install
from a stage3 installation tarball. The minimal LiveCD requires an Internet connection
to install Gentoo Linux.
There is one kernel available on both bootable cds. It will run on both, uniprocessor and smp systems.
The kernel is based on linux-2.6.11 (gentoo-sources-2.6.11-r3). The alternative kernel, gentoo-em64t,
is compiled without AMD K8 optimization and without NUMA support, but with SMP support. Press "F1" at the boot prompt to choose which kernel to boot into.
The LiveCDs are located on the mirrors as follows:
Upgrading to Gentoo Linux 2005.0
If you already have a working installation of Gentoo Linux (Version
1.4, 2004.0, 2004.1) there is no need to reinstall. You will automatically get
Gentoo 2005.0 if you sync your Portage tree and run
emerge --update world. If you still have an installation
with a Gentoo 1.2 profile it might make sense -- in some cases --
that you do a new installation.
There is also the possibility to update your system to a 1.4
profile from which you -- as already stated -- can easily get to
Gentoo 2005.0. This update includes recompiling of glibc and some
essential system packages; it will take a very long time (possibly
longer as a complete re-installation) and it might also fail. So if
you still have an installation with a Gentoo 1.2 profile, it's
your decision whether you update or reinstall.

Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
Aminu looked real good in the 1st quarter. Keep an eye on how he plays the rest of the game. Rivers had a few nice drives, but he didn't convert at the rim. That isn't a problem.
Jimmy Smith @JimmySmithtp
#Hornets shot 44 percent in 1Q, 8/18 while holding #Heat to 26.1 percent, 6/23. LeBron James was 3/9.
Would've been a nice pass if not for the foul.
This team really wants to play well tonight.
Vasquez is like the Hornets version of Mark Ingram.

All of the 26 foreign members of the 'Arctic 30' have now left Russia and returned to their home countries.
The Arctic 30, 28 Arctic Sunrise crew members and 2 freelance journalists, were detained on September 19th by Russian Security forces following a peaceful protest against the Russian oil company Gazproms' plan to start the world's first offshore oil production in the Arctic.
The first 'Arctic 30' activist to leave Russia, Dima Litvinov is mobbed by friends, family and supporters as he arrives in Stockholm, Sweden.

That'd work, though you'd want to use a cryptographic signature instead of a CRC - it's easy to force a CRC to match. The easiest thing to do would be to have the firmware verify the signature, that way you don't need a second computer to verify your laptop every time you want to boot it. And... you've just reinvented Secure Boot.CRC the /boot partition and make independent system check-verify it, before booting it.
Bootloader exploits are attractive because they are very hard to detect from a booted computer. There is no reason to expect that people using Linux would never be targeted by such attacks.
If you go down this path, you've re-invented the modern virus scanner- only worse, as you probably have to put this in a chip, not on a disk, and come up with a way to safely & securely update it. Definition-based virus scanners are great at detecting current and old viruses, but not near-future, and tomorrow's viruses/etc.
The problem is if you can install any operating system on the machine, you can subvert any operating system on the machine.
But see that's my point... MS does --NOT-- need to worry about whether or not linux can get targeted by such attacks... It isnt their concern at all. Not even a teeny weeny tiny little bit.
EDIT: MS can come up with whatever excuses they want, but they will never be able to come up with enough excuses to give them the right to determine what linux is acceptable to boot from.
Last edited by duby229; 12-28-2012 at 06:56 PM.
If MS is so worried about their OS, then let them worry about their OS.
EDIT: sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. The thing about freedom is that you're frre to do whatever you want to do as long as you're not stepping on somebody elses freedoms...
EDIT2: And about subverting an OS... That will always be true. Secureboot is not going change that. MS OSes have been by far the worst offenders. Windows 8 is -not- going to be exception. It will get infected just as badly as the rest of them have. Secureboot wont fix that. The only thing it does is give MS the ability to decide what OSes are acceptable to boot and which ones arent. THAT is NOT their place. What they need to do is ban the worst offenders... But that would fuck themselves.

Second, even if have done that, they only defeated one layer. They can't inject kernel code, only in userspace. And userspace can be CRCed as well - but thats outside even of SecureBoot scope.
It is possible to check by system hardware, if its prone to bugs, which it isn't. So its better to use independent system, connecting only for time of pre-boot checks as RO.
The difference is that my "version" does not require you to "surrender" to me or be executed.
The small attribute is that my "version" was "invented" in 10 seconds of time, and I sure have read about it 2-3 years ago on the network. That means, it is already used in production.
And also, if case anyone with ideas browsing, the whole idea above is Defensive Publication at date/time of original post.
So don't even try.

Finished this a few days ago, overall enjoyed it a lot, prob more than I enjoyed Prince. Some parts, like the disturbing part discussed above were so engaging it was impossible to put the book down, in fact a few time's I missed my stop on the MRT cause I was so engrossed. Great stuff.
There were a few things I wish had been gone into more though:
Spoiler:The Prince of Arrows fate at the hands of his brother, I had been really enjoying the way Jorg was being played against the Prince, almost classic good vs. evil but with a lot more depth. I was psyched for their rematch only to have it revealed that Egan had killed his brother and now Jorg had to face him, essentially an evil vs. evil showdown. I felt his character was thrown aside after a lot of character building and would've liked if this showdown between the brothers (even if it was a stabbing in the back it could've been fleshed out) had been given more page-time, either in Katherines diary or through the dialogue between Jorg and Egan. I loved the colt 45 gunning down though, very reminiscent of that scene in Indiana Jones where Indy shoots the big guy after he does all his posing with his sword skills
Spoiler:One thing that didn't quite hit home with me was the death of Degan at Jorgs hands, the way the memories sealed in the box were being played up throughout the book I was really expecting something super nasty to come out in the end and found the death of the baby due to Jorgs necromancy a bit of a letdown. I'd been bracing myself for something truly horrible, in comparison to the justice scene it just didn't have the same visceral impact, for me anyway. I did however LOVE how the box was used to hide Jorgs plans from other players and really enjoyed how his well laid schemes were revealed to such devastating effect!
Great book though, looking forward to the conclusion of Jorgs journey next year,thanks for the journey Mark!

I think the dog/baby issue will depend on the reader. The dog impact is very 'visual' and comes from a mixture of mechanical and immediate description. The baby impact is more psychological and comes from the roots of the character and his defining moments. Some readers will care more about the shattered bones of a dog - some will care more about the lost potential of a human child - and all will care in varying degrees about the types of harm those separate acts inflict upon Jorg as the author of them.

Essentially decided on this book for the setting, but I was surprised just how good it was. Seems like every time I'm ready for a long break from fantasy some author comes along, kicks me in the butt and drags me back. Jorg's a fascinating character.

w00t! King of Thorns is a nominee for the Goodreads best fantasy of 2012!
some stellar authors on the list - Stephen King, Robin Hobb! Also our own Michael Sullivan & those Brent Weeks & David Abrahams fellows. Terry Goodkind's there too - still shifting books off shelves at a huge rate of knots!
How many of 'em have you read?
October 31st, 2012, 11:01 AM #366
Currently? King of Thorns only!
May pick up some of the others at some stage, although I have just finished Mssr Abercrombie's latest before launching into the second in Justin Cronin's 'The Passage' series, and that is a bit of an epic so they may have to wait...
EDIT: That means you got my vote by default, I even signed up to the site to do so.

As far as the main character...he could be even more dark and it wouldn't bother me. As long as the character motivations make sense and interesting things are happening bring it on. In reality most of us "don't do bad stuff" because we can't get away with it really...or because its too hard to live that way. We need others. If you don't need others then not as much is stopping you and its interesting to explore that.

200 pages in, i cannot remember the last time i was so fascinated with a lead character. probably kellhus.

I like it, Mark! The first cover is still my favorite, but this one will be a worthy addition to the trilogy. :-)
November 23rd, 2012, 06:46 PM #373
Hadn't heard about the book(s) until I saw the nominations at Goodreads. I'm about halfway through Prince and enjoying it immensely. I was also having trouble with Jorg's age, but I've chosen to believe that a year in the Empire's world is longer than our year. Heck, the kid in The Walking Dead is supposed to be 12. Can anyone see Carl (even with burly friends and a bit of magic) doing what Jorg does? Sometimes the real world intrudes, even in fantasy, and if I'm enjoying everything about the book but this one little thing, it's best to find a work-around.

From this interview: http://efjace.wordpress.com/2012/06/...mark-lawrence/
Q2.I'll be honest, one of the things that really made it difficult for me to get into the story was Jorg's age (for our readers who don't know, 14 for the majority of the book). Not because of the things he did but more so that he was able to lead a group of adult men and keep them in line. For others it was what they really loved about the book. How did you decide on Jorg's age and did it present any difficulties in writing certain scenes? As you wrote the book, what sort of reactions did you anticipate getting in regards to his age?
This one crops up quite a bit It surprises me, but then I'm surprised people like marmite or jazz. What surprises me most is that readers who accept fireballs, men who can fly, elves, dragons and unicorns (portly or otherwise) hit a brick wall when confronted by a boy who acts slightly older than advertised. Some even cite typical fourteen year old behaviour and limitations as if some law compelled me to pluck a fourteen year old at random off the shelf rather than select an extraordinary one to tell my tale about . . . And moreover in this genre where the reader is continually asked to exercise their imagination in rather dramatic ways . . . the obvious remedial steps seem quite beyond them. If his age offends you . . . tell yourself he's older, tell yourself this race is slightly different from ours and matures earlier, tell yourself their years are longer than ours . . . jeeze, tell yourself whatever it is that makes you accept the teleporting intelligent elephant in the last book!
With all that said it seems redundant to offer up real world present day examples of bandit gangs being led by children or an entire empire being built and ruled by a celebrated sixteen year old in our own history, or even that there is an iron-clad magical get-out clause in the book to sidestep and avoid every single thing I've just set out.
But yes. At the end of it all, regardless, people have and will continue to stick on this point. I have no idea why.
The reasons for the choice are simple and several-fold. Firstly the inspiration for the book was Burgess' A Clockwork Orange wherein the violent protagonist is of a similar age leading a gang of older reprobates. Secondly, and for quite possibly similar reasons to Burgess, I chose a young age to cloud the issue of guilt in his crimes, to highlight the matter of nature vs nurture, to place the protagonist close to the events that have shaped him, to give him potential for growth, to explore the changes that are wrought in us through experience in contrast to those that occur through simply growing, and to focus on the business of moving from childhood to adulthood even when the former has been stolen rather than discarded.
And to answer the question: no, it didn't make any scenes more difficult to write.
November 24th, 2012, 08:51 PM #375
Thanks, Mark. Those are good reasons.
One thing in particular I like about Prince is that when Jorg is philosophizing, it's because he wants to be understood, or because he's trying to understand himself. In other novels (e.g., Bakker's Prince of Nothing), the philosophizing is more like pontificating. The author wants us to know what he thinks, but it's not for understanding -- it's for show. Your way is better, IMHO.
