Wild Justice by Kelley Armstrong Wild Justice is book three in the Nadia Stafford series about the eponymous hired assassin with a conscience. Stafford, known professionally as ‘Dee’ (could be a stripper), is a former cop who has entered the market as a killer for hire, but with the caveat that she will only eliminate […]
The Magus of Hay by Phil Rickman Interesting novel here. Not interesting because I want to tell you of the wonderful book it is. Interesting because it’s a good example of a fine plot ruined by a poor delivery. The Magus of Hay is number 12 in the Merrily Watkins series. The bold Miss Watkins is […]
The Country Girls by Edna O’Brien Edna O’Brien is widely regarded as the doyen of Irish female novelists. She is a writer of some standing in literary circles upon the island. I must confess that this is the first of her novels I have read (it is also her first novel). I don’t intend for […]

Anno Dracula, Johnny Alucard – by Kim Newman Hmm… where do I start with this one? Firstly, this book is the third of the Anno Dracula series. I didn’t realize that at first and so thought that Johnny Alucard was the author, with Kim Newman getting writing credits (his name was shown in smaller print […]
Alan Partridge, Nomad by Neil Gibbons, Rob Gibbons and Steve Coogan Alan Partridge is a wanker. He is a complete tool who seems not to realize that he is the person at parties that others want to drown in the punch bowl, before burying his flayed body in a quicklime pit beside a nuclear reactor.
