Writing The Image: Echoes.
http://writingtheimage.blogspot.com/2007/11/echoes.html
Friday, November 9, 2007. Not a lot happening now. We’re fast approaching the last day, and already many of the people have left. There are the usual stragglers. Those who hang back, saying the last goodbyes, making last minute arrangements to meet up somewhere else. Even one or two who seek the honour of being the last one out when the doors are closed and locked for the final time. The laughter, and the tears of every person who entered. Will these walls hold that spirit? But in the meantime, we will m...

"Come, Paravi," she said. "It seems Lord Ganesh has decided to celebrate his birthday early. We will come back tomorrow and see if he has left us any mangoes to pick." They turned back toward the village. Perhaps Mother will make something for his aching head.". Photo © Dilip Padhi (Featured in the. As The Sun Fell.

The Bookcase: April 2007
http://crookedpaw-thebookcase.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Monday, 9 April 2007. Joe Sixsmith is black, balding, bumbling and a bit slow off the mark. He's also a PI, much to his Aunt Mirabelle's despair. And his Dalziel And Pascoe series will love this book. The undercurrent of humour that runs through Dalziel And Pascoe has been allowed to overflow and flood the Joe Sixsmith series, making them highly entertaining. On several occasions, I found myself laughing out loud, much to the amusement of fellow train travellers. This is an easy book to read, but as foll...

The Bookcase: June 2009
http://crookedpaw-thebookcase.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 16 June 2009. Based on an island off the coast of Mozambique, a band of modern day pirates carry out raids on unsuspecting ships. However, these aren't your run-of-the-mill rabble of cutthroats and murderers, but rather a well organised, well armed unit which moves with military precision and timing. They are led by ex soldier Alex Tremain. It's not easy being a pirate. It takes on more of a supporting role, allowing the reader better focus on the main characters. The book is titled. The main ch...

The Bookcase: African Sky

Friday, 2 November 2007. It's 1943. A WAAF from Kumalo air base, in Rhodesia, has just been found raped and murdered in a disreputable section of the township. Suspicion immediately falls on the local black community. Squadron Leader Paul Bryant, once a pilot in bomber command, but now a man haunted by the war in Europe, begins to investigate.

The Bookcase: The Sirius Crossing
http://crookedpaw-thebookcase.blogspot.com/2007/01/sirius-crossing.html
Friday, 26 January 2007. Jack Valentine has been in the intelligence game too long and it is starting to show, but he accepts one more mission - he always does. It seems like a simple task, but it throws up deadly questions and he doesn't know the answers. What were American Special Forces doing in Ireland Twenty-five years ago, and why does it matter now? What is the thread which leads from a deserted mountainside to the offices of the White House? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Books don't care wh...
