Teresa and Kate, can I just tell you about the Dark Tower books please :-)) there ARE 7, they are ALL out (def in hardback) - cos I've gottem on the shelf here!! Teresa, they just get better (and bigger lol). Kate fyi you will find that the Dark Tower books and all the other books he has written have various interwoven bits - maybe just a name, an idea, a riddle, a location .... there are even a couple of books about that part of it! People who read him for the first time are often quite surprised by how good he is! glad you enjoyed Rose Madder - one of my faves. Best one for me is The Stand - read it gawd about 10 times I reckon !! oh I am just about to start Brave New World for Greaders. Not sure what to expect but will give it a go! Maz. XX |

Hi Maz, They have this Dark Tower series under the Science Fiction part in the library. After reading Rose Madder I have been tempted to start on this set. Going on Saturday so I will pick up Gunslinger then, Kate x |

Hi, I've been reading 'The Fatal Shore' by Robert Hughes. It's a bit academic but should be a must for anyone who has rellies who were transported to Australia. Also a good social discourse on the way crime was seen and dealt with just less than two hundred years ago. I've read all four of the Dan Brown books whilst still trying to get through it though!

If anyone likes medieval spooky tales, I can recommend Barbara Erskine. House of Echoes is the best one, I sat up all night reading that, and when I finished it I was amazed to hear the birds singing and the sun coming up, it was 4.00am! |

Have read all 4 of Dan Brown's....a good fast read...a bit like an Agatha Christie but not so light....his have lots of detail which is very current - he tells a good tale....just to remember - he tells a good story...a little fact and a lot of imagination. |
