book review

“The Profiler’s Daughter – Sky Stone Thriller #1” by P. M. Steffen – DNF

“The Dead Won’t Sleep – Rosie Gilmour #1” by Anna Smith -grim, realistic crime story set in 1990s Glasgow

“Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” by J. K. Rowling – read it like a play, not a novel.

“Boundary Born – Boundary Magic #3” by Melissa F. Olson – best in the series so far

“Spectral Shadows” by Robert Westall – subtle, atmospheric, Eighties, British horror novellas.

“Lies, Damned Lies and History – The Chronicles of St Mary’s #7” by Jodi Taylor

“Coffin Road” by Peter May – beautifully written, atmospheric thriller.

“Old Man’s War” by John Scalzi – entertaining, old school science fiction that is charming rather than challenging

“Strictly Analog” by Richard Levesque – original SF Noir detective story in a future California after the breakup of the USA
