Disco for the Departed is the third in Colin Cotterill’s Dr Siri Paiboun series. It’s on sale for $1.99 right now in the US. Books in this series don’t go on sale very often, and are pretty expensive (mostly $9.99) when not on sale, so I’d grab this now if you want it. Buy at

More Judge Dee is always a good thing! Qiu Xialong has now written a couple of continuation books to Robert Van Gulik’s 1950s – 1960s Judge Dee stories. The Conspiracies of the Empire is the second of these, and in it, Judge Dee, who is a real historical figure, is now older and more politically

But Michaels’ Maggie Kelly series, about a romance writer who gets dumped by her publisher and starts writing mysteries, still

I’ve read and enjoyed a few of Genevieve Cogman’s Invisible Library books, which are hard to characterize. But if I had to pick a genre, I would call them fantasy mysteries or fantasy spy novels. But I haven’t read any of her newer Scarlet Revolution series, which is, per its blurb, a re-telling of The

One of the few types of mystery I’m not usually fond of is the psychological thriller. So, as a result, I’m not a huge Mary Roberts Rinehart fan. But a lot of people are, and here’s one of her non-series books on sale: The Swimming Pool, apa simply The Pool, is $1.99 at Kindle US

A nice series start… A year or so ago, I had a review copy of Olivia Blacke’s A Fatal Groove, which is the first in her Record Shop mystery series. I liked that book, which is practically the epitome of a cozy. So when I was offered a review copy of A New Lease on

A fun full-length space opera with a few serious moments… Only Cold Depths is the fourth in Jennifer Estep’s Galactic Bonds series, and it follows close on the heels of the previous novella, Only Hard Problems – both in “real time” (only a few months separate their publication dates) and in “book time”. And Cold
