Gail Knight's rendition of the audio of Anne Buist stand-alone psychological thriller, The Long Shadow is quite good. 5★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

It is - I'm over half way through now!
'The Sun Walks Down' by Fiona McFarlane is much more than the story of a missing child: 1880's class, race and gender disparities are tackled superbly. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
My review of Summer on Honeysuckle Ridge by Debbie Mason 
3 and a half stars

After I swore off this narrator, someone convinced me that Danielle Carter's rendition of The Burning Island was good. Sadly, it's not: it does Jock Serong's fine historical fiction no favours at all. 4★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
4.5 stars for historical fiction

As expected, The Good Wife of Bath: A (Mostly) True Story by AA Karen Brooks was right up my medieval alley.https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Fredrik Backman's reputation for writing a moving, thought-provoking and uplifting read is cemented with the conclusion to his Beartown trilogy, The Winners. 5★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

I've just started it so I will read and enjoy your reviews soon! So glad to know he's as good as ever.
This is a delightfully colourful children's book with cheeky remarks and enough real facts to pique even my interest. The World's Most Ridiculous Animals, written and illustrated by Philip Bunting, should appeal to kids and anyone reading to or with them.
5★ My review of Ridiculous Animals with some illustrations
Isaac Asimov wrote
The Last Question
back in 1956 when computers were the size of rooms. This is an entertaining, very short, story, and a shock to read it in a time of Siri and Google.
4★ My review of The Last Question with links to the story and an interview

Angela Marsons new Kim Stone episode is excellent. God to see Kim returning to work after her beating and near death last time.

I really enjoyed Rebecca De Unamuno's narration of Medea's Curse and, with the 4th book starring Anne Buist's interesting protagonist Natalie King, Locked Ward due early 2023, I'll continue to reconnect with her in the audio of #2 and #3.5★s
