Painted Veil introduces Augustus Rumbolt, an Englishman who becomes Tito's friend and eventual brother-in-law, and also Liya, the love of Tito's life. Too, I had fun working up a fictitious secret society in the vein of the Freemasons or Rosicrucians.<br /><br />Best,<br />BevBeverle Graves Myershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08206450643204048448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-89312964222816793812009-10-28T09:52:14.677-04:002009-10-28T09:52:14.677-04:00I must admit I was a bit disappointed at first, a ...I must admit I was a bit disappointed at first, a mystery thriller set in 1016 would have been truly interesting. ;-)Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-74730058595000722522009-10-28T09:43:23.821-04:002009-10-28T09:43:23.821-04:00sounds like to me you brought back 3 good reads!

I will get enough from authors and publishers probably to keep it growning. I hope I can keep my promise but bloggers just recommend so many good books! I got a set yesterday of old books by John Parish that are about your area. :)Carol Murdockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16749285023748227382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-39931335124851130992009-10-28T08:04:22.017-04:002009-10-28T08:04:22.017-04:00Boy, was I puzzled by Merisi's first comment -...Boy, was I puzzled by Merisi's first comment -- till I looked at the post and saw my typo!Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-13543730140532822582009-10-28T07:46:48.626-04:002009-10-28T07:46:48.626-04:00Hi Vicki

Everything's fine! ;-)<br />I was simply carried away by my love of the early history of England, especially the period of Aethelred II and the Danish period afterwards. I would have loved such a setting! ;-)Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-6493737114913178482009-10-28T03:59:13.251-04:002009-10-28T03:59:13.251-04:00I am surprised English women (and women in general...I am surprised English women (and women in general) were allowed to serve abroad in the year King Aethelred died and the Danish gained the throne of England. Anyhow, it is a truly interesting period in European history and I can't wait to read your review!<br />The cover illustration is a bit unfortunate, they could have found something more fitting for early Middle Age.Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.com
