I've finished my Captain Alatriste book.

Now I'm reading La Cena Secreta (The Secret Supper) by Javier Sierra

It's about a Dominican Monk investigating the occult in renaissance Italy.

EDIT:

BTW, a freebie from work, too ;)

Nope - we sometimes manage to bind a book where the order has been cancelled meanwhile. Those are up for grasps  :D

A proof of 'Patient Zero' by j. Mahberry (military horror, those darned terrorists are making... zombies??)

World War Z (i only just got around to picking this up... it's nothing on the guide though...)

Freebie copies of the first two James Barclay fantasy novels (because he is the nicest human being ever)

Freebie copy of the nice Lovecraft collection (just because it's such a nice addition... and has led to me looking covetously at some RAFM stuff...)

For folks interested in the French Army of 1914 this book is for you. May I say that this is a very detailed book an hopefully this year we will see the other volume covering 1915-1918. For me painting early war French this is an excellent resource.
Best wishes,
Helen

Is this part of a series? Where did you get it from?

I was able to get books 3-11 of Burrough's Mars series. Took me a while to track number 2, but I got it! Then I got number 1! Now I'm reading them! Very pleased.

Mutants and Death Ray Guns

all from Ganesha Games.

I very much like the rules and am going to play both games next Sunday!
