	Q66: It's a date!

		Sorry for the delay...! Although not explicitly mentioned, the date of July 15th is very significant in one of the books. Can anyone say in which one and why?

		In King Ottokar's Sceptre, Muskar has lost his sceptre. He'll lose the crown if it isn't found by the parade to be held on the feast of St. Vladimir, which is celebrated on the 15th of July. And thanks for an excellent question, didn't know a thing about St. Vladimir beforehand. If anybody else is interested, Wikipedia gives some basic information here.

		Well done mondrian! King Ottokar's Sceptre and St. Vladimir's Day are the correct answers. Over to you :-)
