Demon's Hunger - if you like demon and other realm stuff read it

Advantages: Pulls you into the story and you get really engrossed
Disadvantages: Can't put the book down when tea is needed making. LOL

A very good book in my opinion and a great companion to the other of this series, Demons Kiss. The heroine is unaware that she is about to go through the biggest change of her life. For years she collects little red bags of bones and bits, each as it t ...

A tale of Old London Town

Advantages: A very entertaining and humorous read.
Disadvantages: Nothing I have found but some may be put off by the fantasy label.

An Artful History Lesson

Victorian London Pratchett Syle

Advantages: Very Readable Ideal Train Journey Fun Book
Disadvantages: None that I can see
