We’re back with Maeve Kerrigan and Josh Derwent in The Close, and they certainly have a full case load!

Maeve starts investigating the murder of a hospital consultant, whose body is found in his car in the hospital car park. She is also roped in to helping Josh on another case. One where they have to go undercover as a house/ dog sitting couple, whilst they investigate the death of a man with a learning disability. Oh, what a bind - to be stuck in a house with Josh Derwent for weeks!

Well, all doesn’t go quite as expected, but the tension is high with both Maeve, Josh and the case!

There are some great interactions in what appears at first glance to be an idyllic neighbourhood. It really isn’t.

The crimes are shocking, and it comes as no surprise that outwardly good people do terrible things.

I can’t wait to see what happens between Kerrigan and Derwent in the next book, but I suppose I’ll just have to!

Highly recommended!

So this is a new place to talk all things Fantasy. I noticed there was an orb for books specifically but I think a place to explore all mediums regarding fantasy is much better as it will open up so many new world's to those who have not yet explored other mediums or at least not as much as some have. For instance I play a lot of videogames and watch a lot of films but I don't read as many books because it takes me a while to read one book due to a learning disability (quite odd for someone who wants to be a writer I know) but I've been making my way through some books such as The Never Ending Story, and H.P. Lovecraft best weird tales in the Necronomicon and I would love to hear and discuss what others read and find.

Just a few simple rules:

- Be Kind (naturally)
- Debate, don't argue! These will be people's opinions. If you don't agree, either say so in a kind way that puts your point across or don't comment at all. Simple as that.
- Have fun :)

One of the best films Britain made yet no one watched
You've seen Brassed Off, you've seen Four Weddings and Funeral, you've seen Notting Hill and the Full Monty. But you didn't watch this. So few people watched Inside I'm Dancing that they re-released it with the new name Rory O'Shea Was Here and removed any images of wheelchairs from the cover.

It must have been the wheelchairs that did it. No one watched this incredible film about two disabled friends and their rebellion against disability stereotypes. It's absolutely incredible and it will make you laugh, it will make you cry and will make you think and challenge your perspectives.

There are two friends, one is a reserved chap who does as he's told, the other is a punk rock rebel in a wheelchair and refuses to confirm how everyone says he has to. Watch how one comes out of their shell and the other wrestles with their sense of self.

I've shown this film to so many people who haven't heard of it but then rate it full marks after laughing and crying. Will you be another one?
