Deirdre is reading Henry IV: king of France
Still not very far on with this as it is such a disappointment. I keep being diverted by better written and more engaging reads. I may persevere with this. I may give up. I haven't decided.

I've come to #1 of the four Carey novels after #2. I'm enjoying it more. Well drawn characters, good insight into Border politics of C16.

Not as good as the Simon Ames Trilogy but still hugely enjoyable. Well researched, witty and compelling reading.

This really is an amazing work. I have to keep reminding myself that Burdekin was writing in 1936.

Burdekin understood the Nazis and totalitarianism before most people knew much about them. She is also precocious in her sexual politics.

Just started. I'm fascinated by how prescient it is.

I read this when it was first published 1992 and decided it was time to read it again.

I'm really enjoying this! Finney has gone from strength to strength in this series. I don't want to put this down, I don't want it to end!
