Fun Books

Our friend Hayden recently lent me two awesome books. One is The Silmarillion by Tolkien, which was not what I expected, but I enjoyed anyway, and the other is a historical Crusades niche adventure called Angels in Iron, about how the Knights of St. John withstood an overwhelming siege by the forces of Suleiman (did I spell that right? not sure.) Anyway, AiI is, as he said, an intense knock-down, drag-out fight to the death, at least until the end, which I could not put down for any length of time. Never mind that the graphic descriptions of gruesome death would make it the most R-rated of R-rated movies. I also expect to begin reading Rob Roy, by Walter Scott, soon. I meant to read it last month, but I never picked it up from the Library. Now I only have to face Hayden's wrath when he finds out that I accidentally bent the covers of his books... Bear with me, and I'll let you know if he kills me. (LOL)
