Read the 1st book of slow horses by mi k herron
The series deviates not a jot from the book, love the series so will stick with that, the books aren't so well written that I'd be missing loads you not reading them

Nice book. Kind of on the other end of the spectrum from The Road. Nasty things happen but they don't get the book's whole attention. There's a TV adaptation - have you watched it?

I haven't seen it, yep definitely on the opposite end of the spectrum to the road. Both are very good, there's bits of the road I can easily recall 10 years laterSon of Mathonwy wrote: ↑Wed Nov 01, 2023 9:06 amNice book. Kind of on the other end of the spectrum from The Road.

Politics on the edge by Rory Stewart. Yes it’s a politicians memoir and thus you have to be sceptical over the recollection in places. But illuminating on the state of government and politics in general.
