They are from Austrailia, hence the letter U added to FAVOR as in Small Favour.

Now I'm taking a short break in The Dresden Files re-read to read a 1964 novel by Robert A. Heinlein, Farnham's Freehold, an apocalyptic and mostly post-apocalyptic tale starting in the early 60's. It's actually a re-read for me as I've previously read pretty much everything that Heinlein wrote in his career. But I don't normally call anything I read pre-Kindle a re-read and this one I read almost 50 years ago.

Anyway, after this re-read I plan to re-read The Dresden Files books 11, 12 and 13. Then I'll be ready for Cold Days.
I just loved Farnham's Freehold! No wonder it was a favorite back when I first read it.

I decided to read a couple more non-Dresden titles before continuing to the last three. I read Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and thought it a bit slow moving and not particularly exciting or suspenseful. Right now I'm partway through Frozen Heat by Richard Castle.
