Yeah, it (and most adventure-games) goes much quicker going 
through a second time when one knows what to do. For me, i had to 
consult walkthrough-help at the stone-circle puzzle shortly after 
where you were. Many animals looked interchangeable, also hadn't 
been able to locate one of the stones.

Not me anyway. I haven't played Myst V yet, nor do i have any 
book. I'm on a long hiatus from the series, got stopped in my 
progress while in some contraption underneath the planet-fragment 
in Myst IV. Too difficult, (was it another sound-puzzle?,) got 
too frustrated, so i moved on to other games ... but i should go 
back and get through it, even if i'll have to cheat. Someday..
