Book Reviews

“Blind Faith” by Ben Elton – depressingly plausible dystopian future-Britain in which privacy is a crime

“Croak” trilogy by Gina Damico – orignal, dark, witty and increasingly grim YA fantasy series

“A Fine And Bitter Snow – Kate Shugak #12” by Dana Stabenow – good to see Kate back in the Park

“The Singing Of The Dead – Kate Shugak #11” by Dana Stabenow – my least favourite Kate Shugak so far

“Steelheart – The Reckoners Book One” by Brandon Sanderson: exciting, original YA SF with dark undertones.

“The Night Watch” Watch #1 by Sergei Lukyanenko – compelling Russian urban fantasy

“Echo Burning – Jack Reacher #5” by Lee Child – first-rate, action-packed thriller with a twisty plot and a strong sense of place.

“Dead In The Water – Kate Shugak #3” by Dana Stabenow – Kate goes fishing for killers

“The Patron Saint of Ugly” by Marie Manilla – weird but definately wonderful
