This article relates to Captain Alatriste
For those who are interested in such things,
from piecing together a few words from the
author's website
in Spanish it looks to me as if the original series order
is:
1. El capitán Alatriste/Captain Alatriste
2. Limpieza de Sangre/The Purity of Blood (Jan 2006)
3. Patente de Corso/The Sign of The Marque*
4. El Sol de Breda/The Sun of Breda
5. El Oro del Rey/The Gold of the King*
The Purity of Blood and The Sun of Breda are
scheduled for publication in English in 2006. I have
no information on when/if volumes 2 and 5 will be published.
*These are my best guess translations from the Spanish and may not
be the actual English titles as and when they're published.
This "beyond the book article" relates to Captain Alatriste. It originally ran in June 2005 and has been updated for the
December 2005 paperback edition.
