That's certainly a popular book!!Of 30 copies held by
the Los Angeles Public Library system all but one are 
checked out.  And it's a big book--0over 900 pages!!

If no one has taken it by the time I finish some
things I'm already working on, I'll take it--but it's
apparently the sixth in a series, and I haven't read
the first five.  I know that someone here is a
Gabaldon fan, but I don't remember who it is. Perhaps
someone else would enjoy validating this book. Or is
fixing line feeds too tedious for averyone but me. I'm
validating a book now where the only problem is the
line feeds, which leaves huge gaps in sentences and
between sentence, but I don't mind just deleting them
a putting the space between the words when necessary. 

I find that reading books that I wouldn't normally
choose to read is surprisingly enjoyable. I'm not a
big  fantasy or sci fi fan, but there were a couple
that I did that I enjoyed and that are memorable.

I'll add it to my list of books to do and if it's
still there in a week or two I'll take it and put in a
request for it.
