No one much seems to have heard of them and it's a bit hit and miss as to whether or not libraries have them. Makes you wonder how many more obscure series there are out there and what we're missing.<br /><br />Library-wise I suspect you should have more luck your side of the pond with Door into Fire.<br /><br />GeraniumCat: Susan and I decided a long time ago that us bloggers are all as bad as each other when it comes to the pimping of books. We're insidious. ;-)<br /><br />Yvonne: Yes, the Theodora Braithwaite books are not well known it seems but worth searching out. It was odd because the 1990s is not that far back but there were no mobile phones and so on, so it seemed further back than it actually was.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-49012554975588417382011-05-02T06:49:14.353+01:002011-05-02T06:49:14.353+01:00Hi Cath,
As usual, the fantasy book is not up my ...Hi Cath,<br /><br />As usual, the fantasy book is not up my street, it's just a genre that I don't think would hold my attention .. but then again, I have never seriously read anything from the genre, so who knows ...I really should give it a try before jumping to conclusions!<br /><br />The D.M. Greenwood looks much more like my cup of tea, although it is an author and series that I haven't come across before. I see that this series of books was written back in the 1990's, so it will be great to take a small step back in time, when I get my hands on them, looking forwars to that.Yvonne @ Fiction Books Reviewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14821114534056290177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-2235483666774834682011-04-29T16:53:47.869+01:002011-04-29T16:53:47.869+01:00Oh that's great, another convert for Theodora ...Oh that's great, another convert for Theodora Braithwaite! I'm going to have to read book two soon, I'm missing her.<br /><br />Of course, I can make the same complaint as you did on Susan's blog - you two are really bad for my TBR pile! Now I've bookmarked Diane's site, but I think I'd better look to see how much I've spent on e-books this month before I download any more:-)<br /><br />(Sorry about the deleted comment - the first attempt had too many typos).Jodie Robsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02442935205880334932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-13187784445379224382011-04-29T16:51:37.287+01:002011-04-29T16:51:37.287+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jodie Robsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02442935205880334932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-12182579472283151462011-04-28T14:34:09.193+01:002011-04-28T14:34:09.193+01:00Gee, I see Clerical Errors on Geranium Cat's b...Gee, I see Clerical Errors on Geranium Cat's blog and come here and see it reviewed here too, and now I'm desperate to find it! lol you both loved it, and it sounds so good....as Kay says, what's another mystery series anyway??? :-D For going from not reading many mysteries to having so many series, I'd laugh hard if I weren't in the same boat - except i never stopped reading them, I just read more now than ever, thanks to certain bad bloggers! lol<br />It's fun, isn't it?<br /><br />The Door Into Fire sounds fun too, so I may see if my library has it.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095246748581382752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-35273013711345873672011-04-28T11:15:12.177+01:002011-04-28T11:15:12.177+01:00Hey Pat!

My latest book is a real chunkster though, so this is where I slow down a bit. <br /><br />Yep, one more new series... I've given up trying to restrict myself now. Too much hassle. <br /><br />Kelly: The Door into Fire is well worth searching out - ideal for Carl's challenge. I didn't find them that easy to find here in the UK but it should be a lot easier in the US. <br /><br />I know what you mean. It's nice to go away, love a change of scenery, but I always miss my home routine as well, especially being online and chatting to bookish friends via book blogs.<br /><br />Diane: Thanks for visiting my blog. You're so welcome re: the review. Thanks for the heads-up about the number of books in the series, I'll alter that in a moment. I took a too quick a look at your FantasticFiction page and didn't note the years of publication properly.<br /><br />Thanks also for the URL for Kindle downloads. I didn't think of getting the Kindle version of book 3.

The fourth hasn't yet been written. <br /><br />BTW, links to relatively inexpensive Kindle and .ePub versions of all three books are here:<br /><br />http://www.dianeduane.com/ebooks-by-Diane-Duane#middlekingdoms<br /><br />Best!
