World War Z. It's very very good.


From what I read of it, it's absolutely brilliant at drawing you in.

Very addictive. I nearly missed my train stop the other day because of it.

You're whizzing through them! Don't forget the short story on iBooks 'Second Son'.


My Dad's recuperating at home from a back injury and with time on his hands he's reading them and passing them on to me. I'm going to take a break soon and read something else before the Reacher books become repetitive. The Visitor is one of the best ones so far.

61 Nails by Mike Shevdon, on the recommendation by one of my favourite authors Ben Aaronovitch - and very good it is too!

Just started Redemption by Jussi Adler-Olsen. I had a little Jussi break and read 3 other books but glad to be back in the world of Carl, Assad and Rose.

Finished that, am now on my 5th Reacher book, The Visitor.


Finished that - very good, but I am not totally convinced by the bad guy's methodology. Now reading Stephen King's Full Dark, No Stars.

No one else is recording pretending to be Michael. I don't like the idea of someone else writing those characters. It feels wrong.

Bobby Llew is up for writing the third book in the "News from..." trilogy. I sponsored the first 2 books, so will probably sponsor this one as well. The style is very simple, but the books are very readable, coming over like a modern day Jules Verne.

Currently reading Terminator: 1984 from Dark Horse Comics, and it is awesome. Fills in what happened to Reese amongst other things.
