Aaaand we're back for another adventure with the eccentric employees of The Stranger Times. McDonnell writes with a lot of warmth, and while he clearly takes inspiration from Terry Pratchett (and less expectedly, Mick Herron), these books are very much their own thing. Once again, this is is an entertaining and lively read, with a cast of characters you will be rooting for. Paragraph for paragraph, these are just about the most fun books around at the moment (alongside the humourous crime novels of Caimh McDonell who I'm sure is absolutely nothing to do with this author), and I hope there are many more to come.
