I read the ebook a while ago. When the audiobook was published, I bought that too.

Knowing what was coming made it a different experience second time around, but it didn't diminish my enjoyment, just changed it.

The narration by @kayeluvian@the.voiceover.bar was superb, as ever. Her Robert Llewellyn voice was spot on, and the Alan Rickman very good.

Overall, a really fun story with excellent narration in the audiobook.

I read the ebook a while ago. Just finished listening to the audiobook.

I read the ebook a while ago, now I'm listening to the audiobook.

O'Keefe makes a strong case for his assertion that the Dieppe raid was planned as a pinch operation. The audiobook narrator is also very good.

I really struggled to get interested in this one, and eventually just gave up. I don't know if I've changed, or if le Carré's later books just aren't as good as the earlier ones.

This is an excellent set of quick, simple skirmish rules, ideal for introducing kids to wargaming. Like Panzer Kids by the same author, it includes several scenarios with different win conditions. There's also a welcome section on game etiquette, including notes on how to be a good winner and loser.

Another good short story from Si Clarke (@clacksee@wandering.shop). I'm glad she's returned to the Mars Colony series, and I'd love to see a full-length book three. But then, I also want another full-length Vigilaunte Justice book, so maybe I'm just greedy 😎

It's a lovely, cosy short, told from Gurdeep's perspective. My only criticism is that it's very short and I wanted it to last longer.

Fascinating account of the trial. Unfortunately I thought the audiobook narrator wasn't very good.

Some of the reviews say that the information is very basic. That may be true, but a lot of it was new to me, and given that it's very short (32 pages in paperback) and cheap (99p for the ebook), I didn't expect it to go into great depth, nor did I want it to.

My only complaint is that a full quarter of the book is back matter - about the author, quotes from clients, etc.

As a kid, I read Cadman stories in Victor. I've enjoyed Andrew Knighton's new Cadman stories, and I'm looking forward to reading old ones too.

I hadn't fully appreciated how young the RAF was at this time, and how many within its ranks believed they had to fight to keep the service alive and independent.

Understanding that helps to explain the bomber supremacy belief and hostility towards airborne forces.

I've had my eye on this for a while. I finally bought a copy, and was pleasantly surprised to find the digital version includes an ePub.

A fun story. In some ways, it reminded me of the TV series Ghosts. I like that the author deliberately didn't specify the gender of any characters, although I only realised that when I read the acknowledgements 🙂
