Simon Kernick king of the thriller
I've just finished Simon Kernick's latest book The Payback. It's the third book about Dennis Milne; one of my all time favourite fictional characters.
I've been a long time fan of the man and was interested to see the five of his all time favourite thrillers.

Craving human flesh! Yikes!
Just doing some research for my book, Living Cruelty Free, which I’ve just agreed to write for Greatest Guides. This is a subject I am really passionate about, as I've been a vegetarian for 25 years. The book is scheduled for release in December 30th, 2011.
