I can't believe how much your taste in books aligns with mine. What a brilliant selection and thanks for including Poldark. Love those books! I will try to find the Quirke series here in Canada as it is one I have not heard of but sounds good. I have seen the Alexander Kent series but have not read any although it seems like one I should get to soon since I love the Aubrey/Maturin novels as well as Hornblower. Thanks for another nicely done and enjoyable video.
See – I’m not the only one!!
The Sharpe series is how long?!?! I’ve been wanting to try some Cornwall but I think I’ll start with a shorter series 😂
I really fancy the Dissolution series too.
I think I read 6 or 7 of the Redwall books when I was a kid. I re-read Redwall earlier this year 😃
I loved the first book in the Palliser series, and I intend on finishing the series as well. Have you done a review of the Sharpe series? I should try the first. I love the Aubrey and Maturin novels. Thanks for another excellent video!
