The Rat Prince looks pretty cool..
I'm gonna check out the last one! Sounds like it's right up my alley.
how do people know these books are great if they havent been released yet?
Laura wrote: "how do people know these books are great if they havent been released yet?"Hi Laura, many readers get advanced reader copies (ARC's) from the publishers and sometimes the authors before they hit the shelves. The copies come from many different means. Some print and some digital. I hope that helps. Happy Reading!
I didn't think
would be one I'd add, but "Historical fiction, the Middle Ages, barbarians, romance" got me. Although
is probably much more barbaric (I'm guessing) and little romance at all, this one listed and how it's described just reminded me of "POTE". One of my favorites of all times so I added "Between Two Fires" to my shelf. Already have "The One Man" shelved.
Yeah this needs to be here every week.
The Perfect Horse looks really interesting.
between two fires looks and sounds amazing1
Of the one's listed, Between Two Fires is the only one I might read..
The Perfect Horse: The Daring American Mission to Rescue the Priceless Stallions Kidnapped by the Nazis - just added this to my "I want this book" on my kindle list - which has
far
too many books on it now.
There was a book that was released earlier this year. I have neither book title or author but the book was a thriller based on a killer that chased his prey (woman) into some caves. Can anyone help?

What a gorgeous cover on The Perfect Horse. I'll be reading that one soon as I love horses and am very interested in that period of history.
Between Two Fires looks good. I have Abbi Glines' one pre-ordered but I've been put off by the last few books she's written...
First star I see tonight looks like that will be book I would enjoy reading.
Between Two Fires and maybe Under the lights. Possibly First Star I See Tonight.
Have put The Rat Prince, The Perfect Horse, Between Two Fires and Breath of Earth put on TBR :)
Breath of Earth was already on my to-read list, but I added Between Two Fires: the historical background sounds promising, although i'm not really into romance genre.
The Perfect Horse sound intriguing.
Between Two Fires seems A LITTLE interesting.
Between two fires sounds interesting
Just bought The Perfect Horse. I love action/adventure, horses and heroes!
I am reading Orphan Train at the moment. Very smooth reading. .Between Two Fires could interest me.
The One Man really piqued my interest since two months ago
The One Man sounds like something I would like.

Thank's LeeAnne for the recommendation.I will try and get a copy.

Have you watched it Amber?
Twice but the last time was so damned long ago I can't remember much other than the actor they hired to play US Gen. Patton wasn't as good as George C. Scott's version.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miracle...

If I get chance I will try and watch it. Thanks Amber.
Caroline: You're welcome.Grace: Each to his (or her) own.
I read mainly mysteries, especially British
Hard to come by here in the US, Grace.
Actually, when I visit Florida I've had no problems at all finding used British mystery books. We find them at those little lending libraries where you take a book and leave a book and also at all the used clothing etc. stores. I always indicate where I pchsd a book and I have a surprising number from Florida. Of course, I can always purchase on Amazon.
I am halfway through The Perfect Horse, it is a good book. The same story but told from different viewpoints and also has quite a bit about Witez II one of the Arabians stolen from Poland who ended up with the Lipizzaners. I am partial to Equestrian themed books but they must be factual. My favorite British Mystery writer is Dick Francis. He is no longer with us but his son Felix is carrying on really well.
FYI Miracle of the White Stallions is available on DVD on Amazon. The PBS series Nature recently did a really good show on them as well. Fantastic footage of the Spanish Riding School and Piber Stud. Well worth watching.
