Are you counting O Jerusalem as the second - since it comes in the middle of Beekeeper's Apprentice - or are you going straight on to Monstrous Regiment (one of my favorites) ?Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17782561487396697870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1203893324932668537.post-89044078168779944482012-09-20T19:02:14.227-05:002012-09-20T19:02:14.227-05:00Anbolyn, this book was definitely educational as w...Anbolyn, this book was definitely educational as well as entertaining! Other than Casablanca, I knew next to nothing about Morocco.<br /><br />Jane, I think when I started reading the series there were four. It's hard to believe I've been reading these for so many years! and her other books in between.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17782561487396697870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1203893324932668537.post-81246605390387290652012-09-20T15:05:05.863-05:002012-09-20T15:05:05.863-05:00I read The Beekeeper's Apprentice earlier this...I read The Beekeeper's Apprentice earlier this year and loved it. I still haven't continued with the series yet, but I do have a copy of the second one and am hoping to read it soon. As I always try to read a series in the correct order, it's going to be a long time until I get to this one, but I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it!Helenhttp://shereadsnovels.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1203893324932668537.post-26180475787209023152012-09-20T14:23:17.545-05:002012-09-20T14:23:17.545-05:00This does sound wonderful.

It's scary but wonderful that it's run to twelve books now.FleurFisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00096222149445024649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1203893324932668537.post-67091472139654409672012-09-19T23:22:39.677-05:002012-09-19T23:22:39.677-05:00What interesting settings she chooses for this ser...What interesting settings she chooses for this series.

And Garment of Shadows does fit in a bit with your recent post about the Great Game.<br /><br />Teresa, I would love to read a Japanese story - there was a hint in Holmes' wonderful orgami amulets. I have to confess, I haven't made it through Touchstone yet - the only one of her books I still have unread.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17782561487396697870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1203893324932668537.post-37807506728608338842012-09-19T12:22:51.398-05:002012-09-19T12:22:51.398-05:00I'm so glad you enjoyed this.

I hadn't heard the title of her next book, but I understand that it's to be a sequel to Touchstone. And I think she's planning a Japanese Holmes/Russell story in the next few years.
