Thanks Paul - a new discovery for me, and I concur, very readable ........... and I think the odd bits of Gaelic add an interesting little challenge !

And I should note that they are still all on offer at £0.84 at Amazon UK!

I just noticed that C&R have mentioned an end date for their special offer. It was from their twitter acccount:

Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death? Scoop? Lovejoy Murder Mysteries? All these and more for just 99p, ends 31 Jan [Tiny URL]

That tiny URL is to http://www.crcrime.co.uk/books/kindle-sale

It looks like I'll have to decide whether to buy Amelia Peabody in January or not. Sigh.

Argh. There's one in that sale which is the second book in a series, and I'd really like to read the first, which is inexplicably not on offer. I don't know whether I should go for the second one now or not.

I probably shouldn't to be honest. They might do it again before I get chance to read it, and by then I might have read the first one and know whether I want to continue.

Get the sample of the first one? If you hate the first chapter, problem solved!

What's the book? Perhaps someone can offer an opinion on it.

[DrNefario]

It's the Elizabeth Hand book, Available Dark.

The first in the series is Generation Loss, which would be perfect for some of my reading challenges this year.

The Serpent's Disciple is free again - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EUBAVE0 - I missed it when it was free before but ereaderiq alerted me two hours ago that it'd gone free.

In this conspiracy thriller, an ancient evil threatens to take over the Catholic Church and use it to upset the world order. Peter Romanus, the Grand Master of the secret Masonic Order known as Propaganda Due has set in motion the final stages of his plot to kill the Pope and control major world governments through the Church.

Meanwhile, Anthony and Antonella “Nelli” Andruccioli feel a sudden call to visit Pesaro, the Italian town where their father was born and where their family has long protected a deep connection to Saint Anthony himself. The siblings soon learn that they are called to protect the Church: Nelli as the Chosen One, and Anthony as one of the Guardians sworn to protect her from the false prophet. Together they must navigate the labyrinth of ancient prophecy and Vatican politics and expose the truth before it is too late.
