When it was over I just couldn't be finished with them - had to have the books, and was very lucky that a local bookstore had them, all of them. <br /><br /> Even then, I needed more - & there just would not be any more, given that Benson died in Feb. 1940. But, I did acquire two follow-up stories written by Tom Holt. He may not be Benson, but I found his stories very satisfying: Lucia Triumphant & Lucia in Wartime.Nancy B.

Can't say I'd ever seen the music video before, which only made it better. That's the way to start the weekend - with "blind possessed choir boys" and many, many mullets.Claire (The Captive Reader)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07430380065718826213noreply@blogger.com
