New books

[wiseheart]

Books - nothing can be compared to them. No cinema, not TV, no Internet, no nothing. If they only didn't take up so much room... Fortunately, the new-ish book-cases can still catch up.

So, I have Life in a Medieval Castle now, and it is fantastic. ithilwen, you must have it, too. I only leafed through it in hurry, as I was caught up with some Halabor background stuff, but it is more than worth the money it cost.

Also, I got three more Brother Cadfael chronicles and am continually in awe of the author, Ellis Peters. Not only does she know her medieval stuff, she writes highly enjoyable characters with exciting plots, too. Seven volumes down, fifteen more to go, to have the entire series. Too bad some of the books are out of stock, but perhaps they get reprinted, soon.

Bestsellers is really a blessing as bookstores go. I'll have to try and make him order the rest of the Prydain Chronicles for me. I only hope that the additional books will be reprinted, too.

Okay, and on a completely unrelated note: BE HAPPY, lhun_dweller!

Please don't order Taran Wanderer - a copy is on its way to you right now! I'm afraid that I missed the recommended deadline for international mail, though, so I'm not sure if it'll reach you by Christmas :(

Oh, dear, thank you! I didn't even remember that you have promised me that one. *ducks ashamedly* RL has been so... interesting lately.

But don't worry about it not arriving before Christmas! It's always nice to get a present outside of the disastrous holiday time.

I do wonder though, when my Xmas cards will arrive. I only posted them some one and a half week earlier...

That's one advantage of a house - lots of room for bookcases. :D

Looks like I'll be adding Life in a Medieval Castle to my next Amazon.com order!

I can certainly recommend it. :)

As a matter of fact, your Xmas card to us arrived the morning of our wedding, just in time to be enjoyed with JastaElf standing there reading over my shoulder. Thank you!!!!

Oh, good! Now I only have to worry about the remaining dozen of them. ;)
