Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I can't tell if these extracts are designed to enthral or repel?

“But that was Key West. It searched out and exploited the hairline crack in each person’s stability and crowbarred it open.”

I've read Ancillary Justice, I loved it and read the rest of the trilogy :-)

I've not read either of the other authors, happy to try whatever gets picked.

I'm currently reading another Josephine Tey crime book. I needed something calming after the trauma of Twin Peaks Episode 8.

Well, I'm locking in Florida Roadkill because I've just ordered it off AbeBooks for £1.68 + swingeing P&P

I'm looking forward to this. I survived Key West, I must be completely stable.

I touched on it earlier but here’s another strong recommendation for Bad Monkey on Apple TV+.

How did you get there Dio? Now the train doesn’t exist it seems the only options are to hire a car or fly directly. And the latter seems to take all the fun out.

Never been to the Keys. Very high on my want-to-go list

I would recommend. Although it's 20 years since I was there.

I've ordered here too as not in the library system. Which I think is the same libraries as @McGoohan
