    Reviews say it's the best of O'Reilly's "Killing..." series. 1000004841.jpg
    I'm into the frontier and old west stuff.
    I alternate between the fiction and nonfiction.
    Just finished "Where There's Fire, There's Smoke" by William Johnstone.
    Part of his Mountain Man series about Smoke Jensen.

    I’m just a bit into the book. But the point of view, that of the natives is an interesting one.

    Taking a break from my usual Westerns.
    A collection of WWII short stories by a great western author.

    The Duke's last movie, and a great one, at that.
    May need to add the book to my library.

    George Smiley appears in many of JlC's novels. Some of the finest spy literature I have ever read.

    Three at a time, Chris?
    I'm not a fast reader and may only get a chance to read leisurely once or twice a week. If I had three going, I'd get plots so mixed up I wouldn't know which book I was reading even if I looked at the title@

    I find I have to mix the "heavy" stuff with some lighthearted reading, especially towards bed-time!
    Lister's book are out of print of course, I get them from on line resellers, I will hold on to these forever and re-read them every couple of years.
    Good thing about ageing: you kind of get to rediscover the books you thought you had once read before :)
