Having had my Kindle now for over 4 years I thought I would Jot down a few of the series I have read ,enjoyed and would recommend to others.
I know there are quite a few intellectuals on this Board who enjoy reading
The Genre I read is mostly Crime thrillers/ Gangster/ Mysteries/ Historical Fiction/
I'll start with the more Well known authors and finish with some excellent new ones I have come across over the last year or so....
David Baldacci :- (Will Robie Series) The Target, The Hit, The Innocent, The Guilty
Tom Wood :- (Victor the Assasin series) The Hunter, The Enemy, The Game, The Darkest Day
If you like the Robert Ludlum 'Bourne' series then you will enjoy the above two series
Peter James :- (Roy Grace Series) Dead Tomorrow, Dead Mans Footsteps, Dead Simple, Looking good Dead, Not Dead enough
Craig Russell :- (The Lennox Series) Lennox, The long Glasgow Kiss, A fear of Dark Water, The Deep Dark Sleep, Dead Men and Broken Hearts - Private PI series, based in Glasgow in the 1950's. Very Gritty
Craig Russel :- (Jan Fabel Series) The Valkyrie Song, Eternal, Brother Grimm, Blood Eagle, The Carnival Master, The Ghosts of Altona - Murder series set in Hamburg (The Carnival Master is set in Cologne) - excellent series, especially Brother Grimm
Gordon Ferris:- (Douglas Brodie series) - Gallowglass, Pilgrim Soul, Bitter water, The Hanging Shed,
