I've always loved Anthony Price's stories. I have now got quite a few in ebook form, but some are just not available.

I love old mysteries. I'm doing more rereading than new reading these days. I've bought all of the Inspector Appleby books. I read most of them many years ago but I want to read the whole series in order (I recently finished reading or rereading the 32 Inspector Alleyns by Ngaio Marsh).
I've read three of the Appleby books so far without noticing any typos but I'm taking a short break after the third one; I don't think I can have read it before because I'm pretty sure I'd have remembered all those disgusting rats and skipped it this time around. If I remember it correctly my favorite the first time around was Appleby's End.
Landscape with Dead Dons is on my wish list. I think I might have read a few books by Anthony Price a long time ago but I don't remember them. I'll have to take a look at what's available -- my current TBR pile won't last more than another fifty or sixty years and I'm only in my seventies.
