For a book originally written in a different language: The Cardinal’s Blades by Pierre Pevel
I’m not familiar with it! I’ll look it up!
Not many Americans know it, but I’m a suckered for Swashbucklers. Put dragons in the mix, and I’m all over it!
For #44 – if you like police procedural type mysteries, I just finished The Hidden Child by Camilla Läckberg (originally written in Swedish) and it was good!
Thank you! I’ll look at it.
