Just finished my first read-through of these books with Blue at the Mizzen today. I think I'll leave the unfinished one for a few years down the road, as other goons have suggested.


Is there a standard recommendation for physical copies of these books? I think I recall some goons saying that a recent collection was not very good quality and I'd like to avoid that.

The Norton hardcover edition, I believe out of print now, is probably the "easiest" to acquire second hand if you live in north America. The Harper Collins was the bookstore softcover standard for the last decade or so, and there are also the smaller, pulp style paperback editions that I have never seen brand new. I have about half the series in the norton and half Harper Collins, and the latter (softcover) tend to fall apart after a half dozen reads. I check every used bookstore in every city I go to and it has taken me about sixteen years to replace half my softcover with used hardcover editions. I also have several books on my Kindle app for travel reading and its super comfortable to read on my phone.

I think there was a short-lived Folio edition.

Thank you!

Good book postpartum is no joke!

I have felt that feeling so many times, and never had anything to call it. Thank you.

I have no idea how accurate it is but I always picture Bonden as being built like a brick shithouse.

Any of these would be an excellent approach, but every time I've gone back to Post Captain I've liked it more and more, until now it's among my favorites in the series. The first time through, I found it to be an obnoxious slog.
