I wasn't really sure what to make of this Terry Pratchett offering. It's touted as a Discworld story, but doesn't have to be. It could be set anywhere although the Geography suggests rural SE England. Tiffany Aching is a sweet sensible nine-year-old a ...more |

I thought it high time I gave Biggles a go to see what all the fuss is about, so Biggles Secret Assignment omnibus looked like a good place to start. Whereas the stories are good solid adventures, there are just so many 'by joves' a reader can take. Al ...more |

OK this is a bonafide pulp fiction dime novel, but that doesn't mean it's a lost cause unless you're a literary snob and I know there are plenty of them around. It's a classic 'stranger-rides-to-town-to-save-a-damsel-in-distress' as you'd expect from ...more |

This is a pretty good whodunit police procedural. A skeleton is found in an North England archeological dig, which proves far newer than the uncovered ancient ruins. It's a bit sus, so Inspector Alan Banks and his team launch into action. Except they d ...more |

You have no idea how many books are titled 'The Heist'. I guess it's kinda grabby. Although Clive Cussler's name is prominent on the cover, the story is down to Jack du Brul who actually wrote it using one of Cussler's characters, Isaac Bell. 'The Hei ...more |

Although he's been around for some time now, this is the first time I've come across Stuart MacBride. He's written a shelfful of books an justifiably so if 'Dying Light' is anything to go by. It's an early Detective Logan McRae outing as one of Aberde ...more |

This book has also been published as 'Red Man's Territory' by A A Glynn and falls right into the dime novel category, which doesn't mean it's bad. In the run up to Wounded Knee, half-breed Indian affairs investigator Lance Costigan is on the lookout f ...more |

Johnny D. Boggs is a respected author of US historical fiction, including westerns which he successfully raises above dime novel status with quality storytelling. 'Top Soldier' is an example, describing Perce Braden's life growing up in on a hardscrab ...more |

Although he's been around forever, this is the first Barry Maitland mystery I've read and I really enjoyed it. It's a police procedural that doesn't drag, which can be a tendency for the genre. Mild mannered bookworm or sadistic psychotic murderer, tha ...more |
