The Prestige by Christopher Priest

Published 1995 Simon & Schuster. Wow! What a fantastic book. I could not put this down, and now I have to rush out and watch the film. Wow! Another wow!

Working Class Zero by Rob Payne

Working Class Zero published in Australia by Pan in 2003. Your typical 30 something novel, started out very promising. Think Mike Gayle, Nick Hornby, or Max Barry. A good light read with no startling revelations, ended up a tad boring. A good read for a hospital waiting room, (exactly where I did read it). Looking for a great book next, the last few have been a bit dull.

Secret Asset by Stella Rimington

A novel by the former head of MI5. If you like the Spooks tv show, you might like this. Nothing really exciting happens in the book, the language is simple, it's easy to read, actually a bit boring. At least I finished it.
