This week's books and more, unfairly (or sometimes fairly) neglected, or simply those the reviewers below think you might find of some interest (or, infrequently, you should be warned away from); certainly, most weeks we have a few not at all forgotten titles...if I've missed your review or someone else's, please let me know in comments...a big week for Christie books...pushing the limit of "forgotten" but as with some of the other hugely popular, hugely prolific writers, each title aside from the most popular tends to be lost in the shuffle...how many John Creasey novels can most non-Creasey fans name?
