BOOKS! BOOKS! BOOKS!

A follow up to “On the Loose”, “Bryant and May off the Rails” charts the Peculiar Crimes Unit’s pursuit of the fugitive Mr Fox – well written page turner.

One to dip in and out of and plenty to amuse – “The Prime Minister’s Ironing Board and Other State Secrets” by Adam Macqueen recounting true stories from declassified documents in the government archives.

Forget the Da Vinci Code, history this month is covered by Steve Tibble’s work “Templars – the Knights who made Britain” – diplomats, bankers, lawyers as well as fighting for the Holy Land.

And on a more philosophical note, “Conversations about the End of Time” with contributions by Stephen Jay Gould, Umberto Eco and others – thought provoking.
