Currently loving 'The Greatest Night', a biog of 12th century warrior/influencer/kings right hand man/duplicitous cad/schemer/chancer etc.... William Marshall. For an historical biog, it's a real page turner.

Also a bit of fluff called 'The Adventures of Edward Brett', which is basically the adventures of a low level god and an older office secretary on their travels to eradicate evil spirits around the UK. surprisingly fun and enjoyable.

Read an interesting bit in the Grud yesterday about these Japanese 'locked room' whodunnits called 'Honkaku' which will probably be on me list fer reading in the next few weeks. Apparently all the clues to solve the crimes are in the text, so you can solve the crime ahead of the detective....fat chance of that with me, but they sounds cool.
