Rosemary Sutcliff: an appreciation: Re-reading: The Eagle of the Ninth

Charlotte Higgins of the Guardian re-considers the lure of Rosemary Sutcliff's The Eagle of the Ninth:

All new layout!

Having had the old layout for some time, it was time for an update. And when looking at what was available since the last time I set up the blog, I was happy to find all sorts of new choices. So we now have a stat counter down the bottom of the page. On the right, there's a sign-up facility to alert readers when the blog is updated, and also a list of our followers - Hello you lovely four :)

Another addition is a working search facility. I don't know how long the previous one wasn't working for, but this one makes it easy to search for posts on your favourite Sutcliff novels. I've also found a facility for listing links, so if there are former posts us blog owners want to bring particular attention to, that's the place to do it.

Regarding the administration of the blog, it's now possible for us to review a list blog comments, without chasing back on posts. Unfortunately, I can see some we have missed and would have replied to, but the people posted a while back so it's probably too late. But I'll give it a go!

Courtesy of The Eagle, it's a great time to be a Rosemary Sutcliff fan. And there are plenty more of her books that would also make great movies ...

Have fun and drop us a line :)
