So I have easy access to the books. <br /><br />I am looking forward to reading the 2nd Enzo Macleod book although I have one of the Lewis books to read AND the 2nd Yan and Campbell book to read.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167054806459662988.post-13648373458004965132019-04-09T12:54:11.135-07:002019-04-09T12:54:11.135-07:00Thanks, Moira.

I have read Extraordinary People and liked it a lot. The 2nd book was even better... I must read on at some stage.

I have to admit I loved that book. So much wit, and really good commentary (in my opinion) on life. This is just my opinion, but I think this is the best of the series.Margot Kinberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08599589137890528065noreply@blogger.com
