  • J.K. Rowling - Brilliant writer - makes Robert Galbraith an extremely interesting character

    Well what can one say. Her writing (JKR) is as ever superb. The main characters comes to life; the secretary adds that special piece to the jigsaw puzzle and that is what makes a good book. I won't say anything about the end, that's for you to read the book and decide.

  • Bit gory but wow good

    Bk2 of the Strike novel series and another 'can't put it down!' read despite the graphic descriptions of an especially gruesome murder. Excellent character development adding more of Strike and Robin's backgrounds whilst leading the reader to the truly shocking denouement of the perpetrator. Best of all during this read was knowing I had Bk3 through 7 waiting when I finished this one.

  • A very good read don’t want it to end.

    Just started reading for pleasure again I am on the 2nd book of 5 in the series. So easy to read and strangely comforting characters, very happy.

  • The London Detective

    This is the second novel featuring the London detective Cormoran Strike and it is as compulsive a read as the first in the series. It is a murder mystery which intrigues and baffles and the gritty depiction of contemporary London pulls you into the story. An added dimension is the relationship between Strike and his assistant Robin Ellacott which veers between irritation and attraction. I would recommend 'The Silkworm' for all those who love crime novels.
