Thanks, glad you liked it! Your review was quite good as well. Particularly about the period being "often overlooked". It's a period I've hand a long interest in and I was glad to see a big volume in an otherwise excellent series devoted to the subject. I even went to see the guy when he came to my local library. Too bad the book did not live up to my expectations.

I've just begun reading the first book in the series and it is wonderful. I'll get back to it as soon as I finish House of Suns by Alistair Reynolds (another big favorite).

I enjoyed your comprehensive review of For Whom the Bell Tolls; it helped me cope with my disappointed experience with the novel.

Thank you for the recommendation(s). I have a hard time finding new or different authors - I tend to play it safe and stay with the ones I know. I guess that's one of the reasons I am here.
