No hesitation in recommending

Loved it, loved it, loved it!

What a fantastic first book in a new series - murder, suspense, action, intrigue, twists and turns aplenty and with the fantastic characters, perfect pace and gripping story line, this makes for one excellent book.

Highly recommended and I can't wait for the next one to see how Con develops and what she gets up to next.

Did I say I loved it?!?

Many thanks to the publisher, Wildfire (a part of the Headline Division of Hachette UK) via NetGalley for my copy in return for an unbiased review.

Couldent put it down

From the minute i picked up this book i couldent put it down. I read it in one night and immediately bought the next in the series. Reading it from the perspective of the victim and agents draws you into the story completely. The twists and turns it takes you on leaves you almost rushing to finish a page so you can see what happens next. A brilliant thriller type novel that has been the first book in a long time to grip me from the first page to the last.

A rabbit hole you must fall into

A friend sent me this book and from the first page I was captured.
It’s a spider web of characters that I want to follow.
It’s a world that invited me in and I’m hoping to stay permanently.
The plot weaves a tantalising invitation that begs you to stay within its pages.
People aren’t who they seem and things aren’t what they seem.
Ink is an unsung masterpiece
I couldn’t love it more

Charley (64 KP) rated Wyrd Sisters (Discworld, #6; Witches #2) in Books

Jan 27, 2019

Well I have always had a soft spot for Terry Pratchett book and his stories about the discworld transport you to this amazing place.
He has a dark sense of humour that you can see throughout his books.
Wyrd sisters is one of my favourites of his Books. This is the first in a series of his books about three witches. It's funny right from the start and the complexity of his characters always amaze me.
If you like a book with good characters, funny jokes and a touch of magic then this is the books for you.

David McK (3557 KP) rated First Sword (Roman Arena, #3) in Books

Jan 30, 2019

The third book in Simon Scarrow's Arena series of e-book exclusives, this (like the previous two) only consists of 9 chapters and so is a pretty short read.

Unlike the last entry, however, Macro plays more of a role in this story, which is set in and around the running of a lanista (Gladiator 'school') rather than in an Arena. Again, the culmination of the novel is a fight between two Gladiators: this time, though, they are fighting in the grounds of the lanista (one for survival, the other to escape) rather than in the Arena for the amusement of the mob ...
