Following on from an earlier thread where you mentioned this series I went and got all 6 and am now well through the first. And am enjoying it very much, so thanks Lynxy one. Will slowly get through the others as light reading during our summer and autumn travels.
So can recommend them too.
Was going to hunt out your old post to give you some kudos for the lead, but you have saved me the trouble as I can now do it here.
