#Musketeers 3
All for One…. http://t.co/J0g6tIBOsp
I was just thinking about Howard Charles this morning, when I was looking at my book shelves and I saw Barbara Hambly’s Benjamin January mysteries. Benjamin January is a mixed race former slave who was able to go to Paris and train as a surgeon. He moves back to New Orleans (I forget why) and tries to make a life for himself there. There are lots of clever and interesting mysteries, a gentle love story between him and Rose Vitrac (who is awesome) and his closest friend is the lovely, gently Hannibal, a Irish violin player (Hey! Tom Burke?) who is just amazing and complicated and awesome.
I love this series, and just think that Howard would be wonderful in it. Any thoughts?
These would so have a place of honor on my shelves. Lovely.

Wise words.
Wise words from a wise man.
This can apply to so much in life.

Third season Minister Trev...
Third season Minister Treville with sword in hand! And looking a touch too serious for this to be merely a practice bout!
UGH I am just filled with WANT for him
And the sword. You can have him, I say grudgingly, but let me have the sword? :p
Falconry…or not…
So, one of my faculty shared a rather interesting article on Falconry.
Then I thought, I have some friends who are celebrating the anniversary of Watership Down.
And I thought, that is a rather heartless combination. So I rushed to take it down.
If you want to read a somewhat brutal but interesting article on modern falconry: http://www.vqronline.org/reporting-ar...
