Books in Brief

Books not Ooks!...Oh never mind, do you have a copy of Fly Fishing by J.R. Hartley?

Books in Brief is an ongoing series of reviews of 40k literature, they aren't intended to be in depth discourses on the material and there hopefully won't be any spoilers. I've been caught out far too many times by other reviews that have given the game away, to the ruin of my reading pleasure and I won't visit that tragedy upon those of you who visit the Edge.

These are just brief thoughts on the general quality of the story / author and whether I enjoyed and recommend it; as always I'd be happy to hear your thoughts and for any authors I happen to offend, pop on over to my Dark Tales page where you may exact some revenge.
