And a Happy New Year to all 
Just started Robert Lyndon's Hawk Quest as recommended by Parthianbow and can't put it down. Hooray-- an intelligent, well-written historical adventure with a real feel for time and place, and not just another excuse for a historically-flavoured gore-fest, even though there's plenty of action.

Happy New Year...I just finished SKP's Lionheart and will be starting George R.R. Martin's A Storm of Swords.

I am reading Three Maids for a Crown and The Sisters Who Would be Queen for my historical fiction. Happy New Year, everybody! 


No entertainment is so cheap as reading, nor any pleasure so lasting. She will not want new fashions nor regret the loss of expensive diversions or variety of company if she can be amused with an author in her closet. ~Lady Montagu
