Pies and prejudice - In search of the north by Stuart Maconie travel writing type of book, intresting especially if you are familiar with the north of England.

[Hodge]

'Trail of the Dead' by Jon Evans is one of my faves, but noone has ever heard of it! Serial killer stalking the backpacker trail. As good as Alex Garlands 'The Beach' IMO.

 

Buy every Lee Child, Andy McNab, Chris Ryan etc. which are all trash but good fun.

 

'The Girl with the Dtagon Tattoo' was pretty good, a bit different. Will read the next two in the trilogy shortly.

 

Mark Billinghams Tom Thorne and Mo Hayders Jack Caffery are my favourite coppers at the moment.

 

Just starting "trail of the dead" today Mark.

 

I recommend call of the wild by Guy Grieve, it's a good read, he goes to live for a winter in Alaskans Yukon. There is a bit of chainsaw action in it too.🐒

 

 

Sent from my I pad coz I'm gullible for buying apple products!

If you like that sort of thing Hodge, read One Man's Wilderness, An Alaskan Odyssey, by Sam Keith. I'm just going to get on amazon to find the one you recommended, thanks.

Gosh, aren't we an intellectual bunch:thumbup1:

Bill Bryson - Short history of nearly everything, bedside book

Richard Mabey- flora britanica, coffee table book

 

I find if i can't get into a book within the first chapter or two, i don't persist, its lost its chance with me.

 

Trouble is I often find i have soo many books on the go at one time i often get distracted and don't finish the rest

Alone in the Wilderness- Mike Tomkies. For anyone who liked the Guy Grieve book and all of BB's books then you will love all of mikes books.Also rec 'a last wild place ' and Between Earth and Paradise.

Heres one for tree huggers, A Melon for ecstasy - John Fortune and John wells. A strange book about Humphrey's a love of nature gone to far. He loves trees just a little to much, going round in darkness drilling trees and making love to them:001_huh: until he gets caught. Tree hugging gone too far!!.

For anyone who like countryside/farming books there is a nice little set of 3, called The Spacious Days, Hallowed Acres and the Glory Days, by Michael F. Twist. All about life on an estate at Burnham in the pre 2nd world war days. Well worth a read.
