We'll see how I feel about the syntax of the others when they arrive, then, and play it by ear.
Everyone just remember: the quicker I get my German up to snuff, the quicker I can start reading things Google translate can't handle, like blackletter font, or lots of footnotes or other complicated formatting. :D
Though I think novels might actually work better for me for that -- are the other Voigts in German, or is it just Homecoming?
Nope, it's all of them! All the Tillerman books, I mean, I haven't checked her others. I just grabbed my personal favorite for my own use, but if you want to pay for one or more of the others, and possibly bribe me with a book of my own choosing to generate an interleaved translation for you, I'm game. :)
