Princess Bride by William GoldmanReviewed by Dawn M
This is a classic tale of revenge and rivalry. Hilarious, quirky and full of adventure. If you enjoyed the film then you will love this book.
Wolf Of The Plains by Conn IgguldenReviewed by David
This is not only a superb action story it is also a very well researched and fairly accurate account of a man who would come to rule more of the planet than any other person in history. I loved it. I had not read any of Conn Iggulden's books
American Tabloid by James EllroyReviewed by Jason
A rollercoaster thriller set in one of America's politically defining historical periods. This one has it all - Power, corruption and lies. My favourite ever.
As The Crow Flies by Jeffrey ArcherReviewed by Alison
Join Charlie on his epic journey through life as he faces love, war, death and revenge. I have read this book so many times and can't recommend it enough. Excellent novel to read time and time again.
Needful Things by Stephen KingReviewed by Kim
Another classic from the 'King' of horror. With an edge of black humour, Needful Things is both fascinating and gruesome. What price would you pay for your innermost desires? Remember one thing...there are no refunds in Castle Rock!
The Spy Who Came in from the Cold by John Le CarreReviewed by Sarah
Le Carre's superb novel of suspense, revelation and pure emotion. With a true eye-opener into the Sixties and cultural revolution. Le Carre submerges the reader into a world of espionage, leaving you gripped until the very end.
Silence of the Lambs by Thomas HarrisReviewed by Chris
The novel behind the classic film. Thomas Harris' novel follows Clarice Starling's race against time to unlock the secrets locked in Hannibal Lecter's troubled mind.
The Hobbit by J R TolkienReviewed by Alison
Meet Bilbo Baggins, Gandalf and Gollum for the very first time in the predecessor to "The Lord of the Rings" and allow yourself to be drawn into a vivid world of hobbits, dragons, wizards and stolen treasure. A funny entertaining tale.
