A short appreciation of Alan Moore’s graphic (sometimes very graphic) novels – Providence, Neonomicon and the rather better known – From Hell.
A ramble about David Mitchell’s latest book, now out in the UK in paperback.
A quick ramble about the short thriller published in 1992.
A quick look at Bernard Cornwell’s fourth nautical thriller. First published in 1991 and showing all its 30 years of age.
Troy is everything I had been hoping for after reading Stephen Fry’s other Greek mythology books – Mythos and Heroes.
