I like how I could tell the novels simply based off the borders, really helped with not looking up the quotes.

Technically the beginning of the book is training before the ACTUAL beginning, which is this first puzzle where *The Master Theorem* begins -- with "I am here."

:)

On January 2, 2022 at 9:23PM EST EMC2 responded to jmooser:

It's not the exact first words of the book, but M does start this first Theorem by saying "I am here" and then says "With these words, the story of The Master Theorem officially begins." So I think that's why it's considered the opening line of The Master Theorem.

This confuses me too. All of the clues involve the opening line of a book. But "I am here" is not the opening line of "The Master Theorem," as far as I can see.

I don’t see where it says “I am here” in the book! M! I don’t see it as the first words! Where is it?

Yes, clever.

What a clever way to start this book

The answer is actually The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, which I think is unnecessarily obtuse and self-indulgent. It is not a widely-known book unlike its prequel and is out of place in this puzzle.

How was I supposed to get the letter R from the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy ?

Once I solved each book and had the new first line, I said to my wife what if it is for this book I checked the beginning of the book not paying attention to the official beginning! Got there eventually.

Stumped me for a bit, anyone else start searching for "I am here" opening lines?

The R is from a different book by the same author called the restaurant at the end of the universe

I just realized why I couldn’t get it. I mixed up the I and the l in the Iliad I thought it looked and sounded wrong

I don’t think the first clue should count. I’d already figured that out.

It worked!

On May 21, 2021 at 7:42PM EST RascalsMama responded to EMC2:

I was putting in the "I am here" first...I'll try omitting that. Thanks.

On May 19, 2021 at 5:26PM EST EMC2 responded to RascalsMama:

What were you typing in that didn’t work? Curious since it seems like lots of people had similar trouble. It works for me when I type in “The Master Theorem”. Note that anything else like “I am here” isn’t the final answer and won’t work.

I had the correct answer, but it keeps telling me I'm wrong! I FINALLY checked the answer in the book, & I AM CORRECT!!
