I think he is a great crime writer. Not only are his crime plots good but he also expands his characters and introduces a social and economic context into what he writes. One of the few crime writers where I buy the books as soon as they are released in hardback. The other must buy authors I also buy are Michael Connelley and James Lee Burke.

Rather thought he had lost his way in the last two novels, particularly the one set in England, but this is rather better. Very ambiguous ending and will be interesting to see how he takes up the story. My bet would be that there will be an Afghanistan connection and the reappearance of Major Turner ............

26. In what year did the housesitters meet the coypu man? A 1979

slapped wrist - and always a good idea to read the beginning of a thread

6. Who invited Kenzie to have a drink before the war? Jim Vurnan, Senator Sterling Mulkern, Senator Brian Paulson

I'd vote for the Chrysalids.

In your dreams - or is the current scenario a nightmare?

Big Brother or cricket ............?

Interestingly enough no. Bet Science was though - woahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh - and hurahhhhhhhhhhhhh etc.

Agree with the above but for one thing - I like Orlaith - mind you had to reconsider when she went into how she would keep busy until the eviction. I'm a bit concerned tonights episode as have been evacuated from home as a result of todays bombs. Might have to stay in the office or I could book a hotel room ..................

I am very confused as to the 'are you my dad' - are you both part of a dysfunctional family? This could be more entertaining than Big Brother - think you should both spill the beans here

Cor blimey I am impressed - they are starting young on BGO these days. Agree with all the sentiments it was and still is a great book.

You do have a magic wand - unfortunately Sauron realises he was barking up the wrong tree with all that Gollum ring stuff so he is now after you. As is Voldermort who has decided this Harry Potter bloke is not the real threat either. This is seriously bad news you - bish bosh - the end …….but no Hermione to the rescue again I wish I hadn’t started to reply to this post ……

Bummer

I have always been convinced that he was called Scient. Thank you for bringing this matter to my attention - will in future refer to him as Science. When you get to a certain age (mine) - anyone who thinks you are younger than you are is heaped with masses of love and respect. I adore the fact you think I might still be at school. If it was irony due to my love of Big Brother, reading of Harry Potter - hey nonny nonny.
