snurri1. Family Circle: The Boudins and the Aristocracy of the Left by Susan Braudy
2. The Sea-Hawk by Rafael Sabatini
3. From the Files of the Time Rangers by Richard Bowes.
4. A Study in Scarlet and The Sign of Four by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
5. Charles Fort: The Man Who Invented the Supernatural by Jim Steinmeyer.
6. The Days of Rondo by Evelyn Fairbanks.
7. Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson.
8. Kidnapped by Robert Louis Stevenson. An odd book. The title doesn't encompass much of the story at all, and again the protagonist is somewhat beside the point, a camera for the historical events that Stevenson wanted to write about. I liked it better than Treasure Island, though, because Alan Breck Stewart is hilarious and the Highland dialect is enjoyable.
