Rough Weather is, according to the blurb (I was too lazy to actually count at SYKM), the 36th in the Spenser series by Robert B Parker. It has dropped to £2.99 at Kindle UK right now (April 4, 2021). Buy at Kindle UK

Walkin’ the Dog is the second in Walter Mosley’s Socrates Fortlow series. It has dropped to £0.99 at Kindle UK, and is also attractively priced in the US at $1.99. Buy at Kindle US | Kobo US | Kindle UK

Based on the table of contents in the sample, The Complete Jake Samson Mystery Series Vol 1-6 is pretty much what it says it is – all six titles in the 1980s – 1990s series by Shelley Singer. It is free right now at Kindle US and UK. I remember reading and enjoying several of the books in

The Golden Tresses of the Dead is the tenth and most recent (2019) in the (excellent IMO) Flavia de Luce series by Alan Bradley. It has dropped to £3.99 at Kindle UK. This is a really enjoyable series set in a 1950s English village, and featuring 11-year old Flavia, who is a precocious junior chemist and

I obviously read mostly mysteries, but on the fiction side, I do also branch out into some other genres from time to time.

An Act of Evil (apa The Latimer Mercy) is the first in the Augustus Maltravers series by Robert Richardson. Per SYKM, it won the 1985 New Blood Dagger Award. These books were originally traditionally published, but now have reasonably priced e-versions published by Joffe Books (and also go on sale reasonably often). So if you

Dead Men’s Sandals is the most recent title in David Wishart’s Marcus Corvinus series, which is one of my top five favorite series. However I’ll add a quick note – this series seems to be a love-it-or-hate-it one, primarily, I think, due to his use of “current” and rather snarky vernacular for the dialogue, which

On the way to other things, I noticed an anthology of three stories by Aliette de Bodard, set in the world of her book The House of Shattered Wings (which goes on sale pretty often). I’ve read and really enjoyed her Blood and Obsidion series, but haven’t quite made it to reading any of her
