    Mossflower I presume you intended no harm, but you copied my Casseroles hub from HubPages to the Shelfari discussion on Quick & Easy. This has triggered a "copied content" for my article. PLEASE remove the post. It would be more appropriate to post a link to my article, not copy it in its entirety.

    Hi mossflower, if you like reading Viking Age tales, you may want to peruse about the pages of The Raven & the Wolf: Blood Oath. Its the first in a series of riveting, dark and suspense filled saga-like historical fiction novels set in 10th century Britain.

    My mom appears to be up to her old self again. Driving. I'm glad your mum is on the mend too. I think you're right about egocentrism. I've joined a couple of other groups that actually want to talk about books, fathom that.

    There's a thought. Maybe we could fold the two together in to Historical Detectives of some such--or just Historical Mysteries and be done with it. I'm out of ideas and energy for it right now.....I emailed Larry G to ask him to come up with a book for a possible group read that we could talk about, but Have not heard from him--and it's been over a week, maybe more.

    Not a problem! I read The Casebook of Victor Frankenstein and enjoyed it. I have nearly finished The Probable Future by Alice Hoffman and so have the pleasure of choosing a book from my ever growing 'to read pile'!

    I also love to bake and cook, and am currently baking healthy muffins for my 4 yr old grandson's school packed lunches. I also love to knit and I am knitting some colourful leg wamers as stocking fillers for Christmas.

    Hope your family is okay. My three are grown and left home but are still as much trouble!!

    I have joined lots of groups but I mainly go to the Bibliophile Group and the 100+ Book Challenge - I'm on #73 so far!

    Can't remember if I told you this, but I had a pen friend from Basildon when I was 11, she was called Carrie, we met on holiday in Gt Yarmouth, she also loved to bake!

    Sorry I haven't replied sooner (My computer first died, and then the replacement has been difficult to deal with at best.

    I'd like to see some more on mysteries like Fiona Mountain's Bloodline, or even more on the ever present historical mystery.

    Hi Mossflower - not sure if you ever got around to reading The Linguist and the Emperor but the discussion thread is now up in the Non-Fiction History group.

    Have you read any of Georgette Heyer's novels or mysteries? The majority of her novels take place during Regency period. Her attention to historical detail is amazing. The mysteries are set in the thirties and forties.

    Thanks for your emails. I havent been reading much lately. Too busy with my Boyfriend. Just got a new grandson this month. His name is Christopher. I try to read when I am traveling by bus or train. Mostly read paperback novels. I love to read fiction that is like non-fiction and a good detective story. I also like the lady bounty hunter type books.
    Keep in touch and let me know when a true crime book comes out. They are one of my favorite types of paperback book.
    Your Friend Ruby

    The Clan of the Cave Bear was a fun read but a bad movie. I cannot remember the details any more. I think I read it more than 10 years ago. The Enigma book seems to support the Clan book and it is supposed to be the latest word. Certainly, if one accepts the whole Neanderthal dead end theory, then the story of Adam and Eve becomes more allegory than reality. Do you agree?
