My library has all of these books plus a few others by Dorothy Dunnett. I
will work on them over a period of time, but still have about four major
books in the works. I don't have as much time as I use to have to scan, so
I probably won't get to these until July or maybe later. If someone else
wants to do them before that, just please post here and of course, I'll
check before I start scanning them to see if they are in the process
somewhere.
They look very interesting and my library has them on tape, too. So I can
do my favorite trick...read them on tape while scanning the hard copy.

Peace and Hope,
Donna

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] book wishes
For a very ambitious volunteer looking for a new project . . .
We have two books by Dorothy Dunnett on Bookshare. She wrote sweeping,
well-researched historical fiction, as well as some mysteries. Her
'Lymond Chronicles' have been recommended to me for years. They're set
in Europe in the fifteenth and Sixteenth centuries, and recount power
struggles, intrigues, and the like. I understand Dunnett took some
inspiration from another Dorothy, Sayers and her Lord Peter Wimsey, so
fans of Sayers generally enjoy Lymond. Bookshare doesn't have any of
the series, so I'm throwing the titles out there for a volunteer with
a taste for historical fiction and a lot of time (I'm told these are
very! long books).
1 Game of Kings
2 Queens' Play
3 The Disorderly Knights
4 Pawn in Frankincense
5 The Ringed Castle
6 Checkmate
