It was the petite corona size, and I loved it. Really good cigar. I'll need to venture online to get some more since I've yet to see them in a B&M. I’ve only smoked one of the Escencias.

I would only expect the series to get a little dull as I approached the last book in an 11 book series. They can't all be great. The only one that I wasn't overly fond of was Book 3 (Blood of the Fold). It wasn't until I got to the half-way point that I really got into it. Thanks for the recommendations, I'll be sure to add them to my growing Amazon list. -Walt A Well Aged Cuban,

But i have to say that like you i really loved the first four books. I really love the “A Song of Ice and Fire” books so far and i think a new one is due very soon. If you ever do come across any of the Thomas Covenant books by Stephen Donaldson i think you may like them. Sorry again and please take no notice of my opinion and hope you enjoy the rest of the books.

Martin as of yet. I have, however, added 4 of the books from "A Song of Ice and Fire" to my Amazon shopping list. I plan on reading that series once I'm finished with the Sword of Truth Series. What are you saying about books 7 through 11, that they aren't as good as the first 6? At this point in time I'm somewhere around 150 pages into book 5 and it has yet to develop a gripping storyline. Any recommendations? -Walt A Well Aged Cuban,

Have you ever read any Stephen Donaldson or George R.R. Martin? Thanks.
