After finishing Hood last week, I had to go on to Scarlet - the 2nd in the King Raven Trilogy, by Stephen R Lawhead. The ending just wasn't satisfying enough to leave it there without going right on. Today I finished Scarlet and again the end left me feeling the same way. So I'm now on the final book - Tuck. I didn't really intend to read them all back to back, but the endings just weren't the kind that would let me stop after 1 or 2. I enjoyed the first two very much.

Gilded Spurs by Grace Ingram. I'm liking it so much I am going to redouble my efforts to get a copy of Red Adam's Lady.

I haven't gotten very far in this book...it's the fourth one. It takes a bit of doing to get acquainted with all the characters and sometimes I find that there is too much detail (especially in book 2). I really liked book three. There are twists and turns in the plot right up to the final page.

Loyalty Binds Me. By Joan Szechtman

I picked this up when someone here noted the kindle edn was free on amazon. I just started it. Surprising. Fun. It reminds me a little of Connie Willis's The Doomsday Book.

I have copies of both. I prefer Red Adam's Lady, but they are both book in my HF hall of fame, and not many make it there!
