Just finished "A killing frost" by R.D. Wingfield, the last one in the series - the author died last year. I think he was a great writer very humorous- Frost is a northern poor man's Morse.

Have read all the Spike Milligans and he is one of the few authors whose books I actually keep.

You don't keep all your books!!!!!!!!

Haven't room to keep them all, I just keep the authors who I know I will read again, have all Colin Dexter's, most of Reginald Hill and most of Spike's.

I have always been an avid reader and love books with a historical content where fictional characters are woven into fact. Alexander Kent's naval series staged in Napoleonic times featuring the fictional 'Richard Bolitho' a Cornishman who rises from a teenage midshipman to his death with the rank of Admiral over 23 books. The series is currently continuing with Richards's son 'Adam Bolitho' and I consider these books equal, if not superior to anything written by CS Forester or Patrick O Brien.
