I finished Caesar: Life of a Colossus which was fantastic and Doyle's Memories and Adventures which started out charming and ended up irritating. Truly, Doyle was insufferable. He knew everyone and everything and whenever his advice wasn't taken, it was a mistake. He also was the perfect prognosticator, which made some of his predictions giggle-worthy, a slight saving grace. Not recommended.
So it was past time for a fun romp, which I've achieved by listening to Sharpe's Havoc read by Patrick Tull, and oh, it's good to listen to Tull doing Sharpe again; it's like coming home. Frederick Davidson read my last Sharpe and much as I like him, he couldn't compare. Sharpe's Havoc is my fourth listen in the series and so far, it's shaping up to be the best yet. A welcome change after two lengthy non-fiction works.
