BOOKS
My favourite authors - currently - are Bernard Cornwell and Douglas Reeman (who also writes as Alexander Kent).
I do all of my reading in bed, last thing at night. I'm not sure this is such a good recommendation...but it's the way things are. I do try other writers periodically, in the hopes that I'll find another favourite.
I used to like Wilbur Smith's work, and I still read his older novels avidly. I tried his latest a while ago - THOSE IN PERIL - but was not desperately impressed. He may have written it specifically for the American market. He is certainly a very fine writer with an almost staggering imagination, and he probably doesn't give two hoots what I think. And why should he? He's chuckling all the way to the bank.I have also read most of Andy McNab, Desmond Bagley, Michael Chrichton and Allister Maclean, among many others.
Just in case it means anything to the price of wet fish, I will, in time, give more in-depth details of the stuff I read. Maybe you are also on the lookout for another good read!
