I've finished reading The Devil's Novice by Ellis Peters. I've read a few of the Brother Cadfael books and they transport you back to an era that I like reading about.
I have selected The Snow Falcon by Stuart Harrison next. I have had this book for years but have never quite been in the right mood for it, so in the spirit of this thread I am going to give it a whirl.0 -

Thanks for the positive comments Observer. I read the first chapter last night and can tell that I'm going to like it!0 -
Unfortunately I've ended up buying 3 new books in the past three weeks not including the OU pre reading one which I have to read before October so it looks as though my unreads will remain so for a while longer.0
