Mmhmm. Just like you know nothing about what the dastardly Mesans are up to, or the plots Elizabeth and Eloise are weaving, or how Augustus and Estelle are going to wind up feeling about each other, or... whoops, did I say that last one out loud? :mrgreen: :lol: 8-)

If anyone here buys that, I've got a bridge for ya. Great view of Brooklyn.


Just a general warning...beware of the trolls!

Funny I always thought RFC was American not Spanish, and definitely not from Barcelona :lol: :mrgreen:

Then he had to pick up the left over pieces and recreate his storyline. I'm sure Cachet didn't mean anything by it, but he has a tendency toward causing chaos. ;)

Frankly I glad it didn't happen. Series tend not to survive long after THE principal character gets offed. Just ask Alexander Kent (Douglas Reeman) how long his Bolitho series lasted after he killed off the Admiral and tried to make the nephew Adam the new principal as an example.

To be honest, IMHO he shouldn't have tried. He had already taken the series about as far as it would reasonably go. He should simply have retired the Admiral to the old family home near Falmouth and ended the series.


I was always disappointed by that. Richard and Catherine both deserved better. The scene in which Adam returns to the house and finds she has left is tragic. But I never mustered the interest in keeping up with Adam that I had for Richard.

She is also the only active memory singer to have adopted. The previous memory singer in question had ceased to be a memory singer for reasons which will become clear if I ever get around to writing the story.

Whether or not this will have any effect on Raoul is, of course, something about which I know nothing. Nothing! :roll: :twisted:

As long as you can show me a legitimate, Clear title, I might be interested. If the price is right. And if I can get rid of those pesky trolls. And you pay the first two years painting costs.

I totally agree I am a big fan of the Bolitho series and when the Admiral died.... Adam's story did not hold my interest as much sorry to say.
