Book Reviews

“Unseen Academicals” by Terry Pratchett – football as the magic of the masses

“Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore” by Robin Sloan – gentle nerd wish fulfilment fantasy with a philosophical twist

“The Stupidest Angel: A Heartwarming Tale of Christmas Terror” by Christopher Moore – Twisted Christmas Cheer

“Foxglove Summer” Rivers of London #5 by Ben Aaronovitch – PC Peter Grant goes to the country

“The Ghost” by Robert Harris – well written but disappointing

Divergent – is not even a word, is it? – reblogged from Glenn Hates Books

“A Cold Day For Murder” Kate Shugak #1 by Dana Stabenow – Good characters but the story is showing its age

“The Enemy” Jack Reacher #8 by Lee Child – a fascinating insight into the “Origins”of Jack Reacher

“White Trash Zombie Apocalypse” White Trash Zombie #3 by Diana Rowland – fun but not as much fun as its predecessors
