Just purchased Biggles; The Camels Are Coming on Kindle only £ 3.79. The Biggles WW I books were my favourite books when I was young and haven't read them since, so hoping it will still be as good as I remember.

To pierce the Tyrant's Heart - a story of the Eureka Rebellion and its effects.

The siege of Malta 1565, Matteo Perez dÀleccio´s frescoes at the Grand Masters Palace Valetta. I bought the paperback version for €25, great value if you are interested in this conflict

[traveller]

So my copy at £3 is a bargain?

That sound like theft! 

The hardback version is €50!

I haven't received it yet, but I just backed the long-awaited third installment of Chris Moeller's Iron Empires graphic novels. This series promises lots of space fleet action, so I suppose I had better dust off my BFG gear. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/forgedlordcomics/iron-empires-void

I suppose I should disclose that Chris is a friend and fellow gamer.

"The General and the Jaguar" by Eileen Welsome - the story of General Pershing's hunt for Pancho Villa after his cross border raid on Columbus, New Mexico.

Just finished it and would recommend it to anyone who's into that period as it gives some interesting details as to uniforms, arms and landscape.
