August

David is hard at work on A King in Cobwebs the follow-up volume to In the Eye of Heaven and In a Time of Treason, taking advantage of the last few weeks before teaching picks up again in the Fall (all too soon!).

While he should be working, you may just find that his researches have inspired another post or two on his livejournal. (Days filled with nothing but time to work, invariably create distractions of their own).

I am verily perswaded, That there are very few Human Affairs whereinto some Devils are not Insinuated.
