Now, as my story draws to an end, may I say only, Thank you. You have been simply wonderful. :( I remember reading The Power of One. Good book. R.I.P |

| 1314224 | 2012-11-23 03:05:00 | I enjoyed his books, but so far I've only got around to reading about 4 or 5. The first I read was Tommo & Hawk and I admit to wondering how he could justify the gratuitous violence and unnecessary descriptions of some sexual escapades. I liked his technique of melding fiction with documented historical facts and characters. (Aside from my last comment - even Aussies couldn't be that crass) :) I'm not ashamed to say I have about 3 of his titles in my library, and I'll undoubtedly read more as the opportunity presents. |
