Just finished "Conrad's Quest for Rubber" by Leo Frankowski. This is the 6th book in the "Conrad Stargard" series, and comprises the final third of the Baen omnibus titled "Conrad's Lady".
I didn't enjoy this nearly as much as the previous books in the series; it seems to have been written almost as a "filler". The first half of the book essentially repeats the events of the earlier books in the series from the viewpoint of a Polish peasant, and the second half of the book is a story of an expedition to South America to find rubber (hence the title).
If you've bought the omnibus, it's an engaging way to spend an afternoon, but not worth buying on its own, for me.
