Never read the R.D. Condensed Editions, but I have read almost everything by Rumer Godden (for adults or for kids, even the poetry), and discovered the Mrs. Pollifax mysteries two weeks ago (will pick up a few more when I'm back in the States next month).
I've been picking up the Dick Francis books lately when I hit the local English-language used bookshop to see what all the fuss is about, but scanning the back covers/openings, they haven't quite grabbed me and I've put them back. And I like things horsey, having grown up on a horse farm (morgans and paso finos) and having played polo in college and what-all... Is there one you'd recommend in particular, or are they all more or less cut from the same cloth and either they appeal or not?
