While it dragged a little in some places, overall this was a wonderful book. Royce and Hadrian bring back fond memories of characters from past RPGs. That isn't to say that Theft of Swords feels like one of those dreadful "I wrote down what happened in my D&D campaign and called it a novel" things, because that certainly is not the case! It's more that I felt as if I knew these characters, that I was there with them, and I seldom get that from any author.

Probably the most famous of criminal duos is Bonnie and Clyde. Their spree of murder and theft ended up with a shoot-out that ended their young lives in the spring of 1934. In her debut novel, Jenni Walsh attempts to paint a fictional portrait of the woman who made up half of this team, from the sketchy information available, and no small amount of innovative flights of fancy on Walsh's part. Read my review of this historical fiction novel in my review here.

Jules Verne, "20,000 leagues under the sea"

I've read it (it was slow).

I never realised until I heard somebody say as such in this, that Nemo is Latin for nobody.

Anyway, this is a 10-part adventure/drama miniseries that follows the crew of the Nautilus from before the Jules Verne story, in which Nemo is already an established character, from the creation of the Nautilus itself by prisoners of the East India Mercantile Company (of which Nemo is one), it's theft by the same and the chase across the oceans that follows.
