I hit the thrift store yesterday with some interesting finds, two are older versions of books I'd picked up as kindle freebies
Anyone ever heard of Ramona by Helen Hunt Jackson? Sounds interesting, but the font size is terrifying.
I also picked up a book by the other Elizabeth Chadwick.

Heretic by Bernard Cornwell
Sword Song by Bernard Cornwell
Into battle we ride with Gods by our side
We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled
WE´LL FIGHT TILL THE END! And send our enemies straight to Hell!
- "Into Battle"
{Ensiferum}

[quote=""Lady of Bennachie""]My long-awaited paperback copy of SKP's Lionheart arrived yesterday. I'm not sure what I think of the cover artwork though, I think I prefer the HB and the US versions:
It really stands out next to the others on my bookshelf!

I love your collection!!! Way more festive than mine and way cooler!
