The Syndicate was carp fishing's first fictional novel. Witty, humorous, totally original and a read we thought could not be bettered.
Wrong!
This cracking book reaches levels of hilarity and imagination that surpass even that of its predecessor. The story takes off from where The Syndicate ends and takes its narrator, Matt Williams, on an epic journey of carping magic. Fate conspires to take him and his old syndicate partner, Rambo, on the carping holiday of a lifetime and to meet a myriad of new carp angling characters where mayhem and temptation ensue!
Mark started off his publishing company in 1999, primarily as a vehicle for writing about his passion for angling via The Syndicate Series of books. Over the years, these humorous novels, of which there are now eight, have become some of the best known and well loved within the world of fishing literature. In 2014, Mark wrote The Fear. A fictional account of the traumatic events that had enveloped his family a few years earlier. Also recounted in this book is his tragic family history stretching back to the 1930s - a history that impacted heavily upon his upbringing.
I read it many years ago. I bought them all but then I routinely sold them. Back on holiday again in 2024 I needed a shot of fishing adrenalin so I am back on the trail again. First two books done and I am buzzing with excitement to order number three 😃
