Hi David. I'm an avid reader of all of your novels and of this blog. Wanted you to know that I got my pre-ordered copy of "City of Fear" last night (May 24th) delivered from Amazon. I've not yet visited Italy but when I do I will plan that visit to include Rome &amp; Venice and soak up the 'little' things as you do when you're writing about Nick and your other characters. Looking forward to reading "City of Fear" and your future books! - John
