Excellent. I like both series but I need a push to get back into Morland -- so I'm especially glad for that one.

[Ezi, Factory Superintendent]

Anyone needs picks?

[Jennifer]

FInished and from Jade Calhoun and and from Morland. Good balance: Jade Calhoun is light and relatively short, and two volumes of Morland is usually around a thousand pages of historical saga.

Great choices! So far I've read and This month. Both were a lot of fun. Thanks again.
