Very good, but not as good as I remember it - I suppose that's inevitable. But still very good.
Next up: In a Darkling Sea by John Ringo. Next in his post-zombie-apocalypse series. Fun so far, provided one doesn't think too hard about it. |

I just finished Stephen Alford's The Watchers: A Secret History of the Reign of Elizabeth I. A very good description of the Elizabethan security apparatus, and some disconcerting parallels to the age we live in.

Any fans of Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch series here? Amazon has made a pilot based on Concrete Blond and City of Bones. It will be streamed free to all Amazon customers in February. Check it out!

I think it is. It may only be available to Amazon Prime subscribers. But, since it's going to be on TV in Feb, it's possibly Amazon will also stream it.

Meanwhile, I just finished Frozen Heat by Richard Castle. Great read although Rook is getting to be annoyingly sarcastic. Hmmm, wonder if Nelson DeMille isn't one of the mystery writers who are Richard Castle.

No, you misunderstand me. Amazon video streaming services are only available in the US, therefore to say that it will be available to "all Amazon customers" is almost without doubt incorrect.

Just finished "Dumb Witness" by Agatha Christie. This was her 28th book, and was originally published in 1937. In this book, Poirot investigates the death of an elderly lady who died, seemingly of natural causes, with a greedy family all wanting her money. The "Dumb Witness" of the title is her dog, Bob, who is a major character (complete with dialogue ) in the book. A good read. Recommended.
