My wife and I both bought Patterson's The 5th Horseman for Valentine's Day for each other (It went on sale Tuesday).
Had to go back to Barnes and Noble today to take one back.

I really like the Lindsey Boxer series, and am lookinh forward to this book.

i heard an old recording of tennyson reading charge of the light brigade...Edison actually recorded him (tennyson must have been his 80s by then) on a wax cylinder type thing for the early phonograph

tennyson had a deep raspy voice
very cool

That's awesome - sounds almost as great as the recording I have of Rachmaninoff performing his own third piano concerto back in the 1920s

Too bad, it's good enough for me !
