I know, all that Dr. Who stuff (and I just watched Voyage and loved it!) and yet the thing I have to comment on is the fact that you have a coyp of King Hereafter! YAY!
It is an awesome book, and in my humble opinion, perhaps the best thing Dorothy ever wrote. The research she must have done simply boggles the mind, and the result is stunningly believable and moving and don't give up even if you have to read the book three times before it all starts to come together in your head. (That's what I had to do.)
Also, I believe there was some speculation a while back about someone possibly publishing Lady Dunnett's theories about MacBeth/Thorfinn, and I hope it happens - I'd love to read more about a period that evidently wasn't as "Dark" as we've been led to believe.

Oh, and happy reading! ;)
