I really enjoyed James Long's novel "Silence and Shadows" another story with echoes of reincarnation, though not to the extent of "Ferney"
I remember this book- it's quite creepily compelling!Currently reading: Ferney by James Long

Amazing how that happens. Honestly you've shown a lot of restraint - after my first EC I went on quite a buying spree.

[quote=""Nefret""]Bought The Quality of Mercy by Faye Kellerman this morning. Could not find The Last Queen. [/quote]
Where are you located, Nefer? It should be readily available at most stores right now, as it's in paperback.
Being on tour, one of the things I like to do to thank the stores that host me is to buy a book, so the pile has grown a bit: besides Magnifico, I bought the new Sourcebooks edition of Daphne Du Maurier's My Cousin Rachel (which wierdly has no copyright page with pub history) and a new copy of Dumas's Count of Monte Cristo.

With boswellbaxter's recommendation of Rebecca Gable fresh in mind I found out at the hipermarket that there are three of her novels translated into Spanish. I hate translations but I'm not that good with German so I came back home with her Der König der purpurnen Stadt (The King of the Crimson City) (750 pages? ) and a couple of Arturo Perez-Reverter's.
