Here are two titles I am very keen to read but sadly they are going to have to go into the pile I am putting aside for the Christmas holidays! But in case others are looking for reading ideas .............BURNED by Thomas Enger - Faber & Faber - NZ $24.99
Thomas Enger (b. 1973) previously worked as a journalist. Burned is his first novel. As well as writing, he also composes music. He lives in Oslo and is currently at work on Pierced, the next novel in the Henning Juul Series.
Yes I know, yet another new crime writer from the Scandinavian block..........
And from Karl Marlantes, author of the huge best-seller Matterhorn, that took him over three decades to complete, comes another story of Vietnam but this time there is no fictional veil, this is his own story of combat in Vietnam and what happened when he came home covered with medals.
WHAT IT IS LIKE TO GO TO WAR - Corvus - $39.99
Note - NZ release date for both these titles is 3 October.
