I just finished “The Bloody Ground”, Setting my reading of the Starbuck Chronicles with Oregon’s 2008 rainy season. Well done! I appreciate the way you write series. Each winter I have read one (Sharpe, Grail, etc). When the rains stop I put your stories aside and get some farm work done. I would be interested in your opinion of Frank Delaney’s Novel “Ireland”.
