I have never heard of this author either.<br />I just picked up "The Fire" by Katherine Neville. She wrote a book ages ago called "Eight" which had me captivated. Its along the lines of Dan Brown's books, but came out way, way before them. Can't wait to see if this new one (well new to me, its 2008 pub.) is as interestingAussie Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15107453364531984524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6754404636941782233.post-46099155468319405682010-03-23T13:34:16.241-07:002010-03-23T13:34:16.241-07:00This looks my kind of book - but alas! no books av...This looks my kind of book - but alas! no books available here!<br />Actually I do still read a lot. Nick and I have both invested in a kindle as we both love to read (tried sharing one but that didn't work! Kindle has to be the best purchase made in a long time. We download books from Amazon ( much less expensive!) great when travelling as can download by wireless or via computer.<br />Enjoy your trip.<br />Maria MAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6754404636941782233.post-47790093882169320252010-03-23T12:03:25.655-07:002010-03-23T12:03:25.655-07:00Hello Helsie Thankyou for visiting my blog, I love...Hello Helsie Thankyou for visiting my blog, I love your patchwork, colours are so pretty.

Isn't it nice to be able to breathe again? Looking at the header picture on your blog, I am afraid I never realised that Australia is home to some ancient castles.

I get so engrossed in crocheting not much time for anything else.<br />I'm really pleased you enjoyed the read Helen.<br />Are you taking some books away with you?<br />Hugs and Love SuexMrs Twins https://www.blogger.com/profile/06396619431808463904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6754404636941782233.post-90751335370703188302010-03-23T05:33:35.135-07:002010-03-23T05:33:35.135-07:00Kate:

In fact I don't think I persevered right to the end. A huge disappointment and I loved the other books especially Angels and Demons.<br />I too read when I go to bed. Sometimes a good book is responsible for a very late night!<br />Cheers HelenHelsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136273834165751276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6754404636941782233.post-40193241925670781632010-03-23T05:01:19.168-07:002010-03-23T05:01:19.168-07:00This has peaked my interest.

I know you won't believe this, but I have a hard time sitting still during the day.... chuckle-chuckle. Right now, reading my way through THe LoSt SymBol.... <br /><br />I bet you are getting excited for you big trip. So glad to hear you are taking a laptop. I will testify it's strange, but so nice to keep in touch.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />Kate - The Garden BellAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13721336502963839799noreply@blogger.com
