I’d been holding out on the last Sharpe book,
Sharpe’s Devil, read by Frederick Davidson, just because they’re such good swim listens. But since swimming’s going to be problematic at best this summer and quite possibly flatly impossible, I decided to go ahead.
Early yet, but I wonder if a story where Cochrane’s a character is a nod to the greatest of all Napoleonic war series, Patrick O’Brian’s Aubrey/Maturin novels? Speaking of which, this was going to be the summer I finished them, the Vance narrations, with two plus the fragment left. I’m only allowed to listen to them in the summer, so do I let them go another year, or do I burn them this year? I don’t have to decide quite yet, as I have a couple of options to explore. It’s obvious, though, my summer daily swim can’t happen.
