Just picked up The Daisy and the Bear by K. L. Clark based on a recommendation from Brian Wainright over at Goodreads. A humorous take on the Wars of the Roses, I believe Margaret of Anjou and Warwick have an affair.

I went into a closing down Borders yesterday and they had 60% off everything. THere were a few things I picked up and then figured at even that price I could get cheaper at BD or Amazon.co.uk (with their current free shipping to Au deal).

But I did make a few purchases, mainly because I grab these series books when I can:

The Sempter's Tale by Margaret Frazer
The Hand of Justice by Susanna Gregory
An Oroder for Death by Susanna Gregory
Chloroform: THe Quest for Oblivion by Linda Stratmann (NF-medical history)

It's quite funny. It helps to have read a lot of WOTR fiction, so you'll recognize the various cliches the author is spoofing.
