Book Review – Robert Graves – Goodbye to All that
This definitely appears high up in my long list of book recommendations. War is sadly a necessity and I do think this book is worth a read to know how brutal it can be on the individual.

Book Review – Midnight Sun, Jo Nesbo / Translation, Neil Smith
This is a fairly routine tale of ‘small’ bad guy robs ‘big’ bad guy, goes on the run and repents. Well sort of with an odd twist or two.
Book Review – The Audacity of Hope, Barack Obama
…highly informative, very well researched and again reinforces my view that Barack seems like a decent bloke.
Book Review – Dreams From My Father, Barack Obama
…someone who feels strongly however has the wisdom to count to ten, or maybe twenty, before responding. I think Mr Obama would be quite scary as an angry man.
Book Review – Robert Crais, Demolition Angel
So Robert, I liked the reference to other characters from your other work, it involves the reader. I’ll even forgive you the love interest, you did it well and it didn’t dominate a great plot. Well done, great read. Highly recommended!
Book Review -Time and Time again by Ben Elton

Book Review – March was made of yarn
I think we in the West were, for once, protected from the horror to some extent by the media and Japan’s capable independence in handling the tragedy. This book brings it full force into your consciousness.
Book Review – Val McDermid, Forensics: The Anatomy of Crime,
Anyone who has watched CSI, anyone who has read a thriller, anyone who has watched a court case unfold in the news, in fact anyone, should read this book.
