Ran to the library today. They had 4 paperbacks from the Destroyer series on the shelf. I picked up #16, Oil Slick. Good, fast read. I managed to finish it in eight hours and still get all my usual Saturday afternoon/evening stuff done.

I also borrowed The Year 1000, subtitled What Life Was Like at the Turn of the First Millennium, further subtitled An Englishman's World, by Robert Lacey and Danny Danziger. Being a bit of an Anglophile, I alwyas turn to Britain circa 1066 when I start to think about a psuedo-historical D&D campaign.
