L’homme de bronze

An intelligent, beautiful women with a sexy French accent enters your life… sounds like the start of a fairy tale, but when the sentence continues…and she loves reading Doc Savage as much as you do… you start looking around for Candid Camera. That really happened to me, and she was kind enough to give me a list of the Doc novels published in French and their original titles. (PS: She also married me. So it was a fairy tale…)

  1. My husband, an attorney and comic book collector, let me read a reprint of the first doc savage novel that he picked up at the comic book store. I was hooked, and am now up to number 46. I’m going to read them all when I’m done with my medical studies. My dear spouse has convinced me to watch the entire first season of Battlestar Galactica too. His friends think he’s too lucky 🙂
