Hmm. I might have read The Alienist. If it's the book I'm remembering, it was good.

I picked up two new books for the Kindle this week. The Mahabharata, from Sanskrit literature, and Scipio Africanus: Greater Than Napoleon, by B.H. Liddell Hart. |

Ye gods I haven't posted in here in ages-well, I'm reading Deadhouse gates now but just finished an outstanding non-fiction called Three Cups of Tea about an American who has been building schools, primarily for girls, in Pakistan and Afghanistan since around 1998 (how he remained alive after 9/11 is a miracle in and of itself)-Greg Mortensen (who founded the Central Asian Institute) is not only THE consummate anti-terrorist but should be awarded the frikin' Nobel Peace Prize! Amazing story! |

Mortensen spoke at Magickmaker's school last fall. She said he was pretty cool.

reading a short story anthology (with the stories of all different genres) edited by George RR Martin called Songs of Love and Death. some of the stories are very good.

American Conspiracies by Jesse Ventura. Haven't been this depressed since I read Heritage of Stone by Jim Garrison in the mid 70s. <grin> |

In the Company of the Courtesan by Sarah Dunant, historical fiction set in 1520's Italy. It is different...a beautiful courtesan and her best buddy and companion, a little person surviving the Sack of Rome and moving on to Venice. The story is told from the dwarf's point of view. |
