  1. A Falcon Flies 1860
  2. Men of Men 1870s-1890s
  3. The Angels Weep 1st part 1890s, 2nd part 1977
  4. The Leopard Hunts in Darkness 1980s

Famous quotes containing the word series:

    Life ... is not simply a series of exciting new ventures. The future is not always a whole new ball game. There tends to be unfinished business. One trails all sorts of things around with one, things that simply won’t be got rid of.
    Anita Brookner (b. 1928)
