Before a few minutes ago, Lawrence Ellsworth was not a name with which I was familiar.  The I read this article at Black Gate in which he describes putting together an anthology of swashbucklers.  That’s it there on the left.  (December can’t get here soon enough.)

He also has a website in which he reviews historical novels.  You can check it out here.  Not that I need any more recommendations on things to read or anything.  Think of this as one addict telling another addict where to get a fix a public service announcement. Yeah, that’s it, a public service announcement.
