After the success of last year’s Summer Reading Challenge, Transworld Publishers are hosting another great reading challenge for EU readers. This time there’s a crime theme, with a list of twelve crime novels to choose from.
If you’re an EU resident you can sign up for the The Great Transworld Crime Caper too! All you need to do is leave a comment on Transworld’s Between the Lines blog and start choosing your books. Transworld will then contact you for your address, they’ll send out your first book, and after you’ve read and reviewed it, you’ll receive the next one.
My three choices are:
1. Sacrifice by S. J. Bolton
2. Mistress of the Art of Death by Ariana Franklin
3. Echoes from the Dead by Johan Theorin
Who else is participating in this? Have you read any of the books I’ve chosen?
Thank you for mentioning this – I’ve just signed up for this too, and I can definitely recommend John Theorin, the only book I’ve read of your trio.
I hope you enjoy whichever books you’ve chosen. I’m glad to hear I made a good choice with the Theorin book!
Enjoyed Mistress in the Art of Death. And there’s good news too– if you like it, there are three more in the series! Enjoy the Caper. It sounds like a fun opportunity.
Thanks Mindy. I chose Mistress of the Art of Death because I love historical mysteries. I didn’t know it was part of a series – hopefully I’ll like it enough to want to read the others!
I’m doing this too! Not read any of the ones you have chosen so looking forward to reading your reviews.
I hope you enjoy your three choices, Dot. I’ll look out for your reviews too.
Thanks for the link, I too have signed up and have chosen the following books
Mistress of the Art of Death by Ariana Franklin
Full Dark House by Christopher Fowler
Past Caring by Robert Goddard
I almost chose Full Dark House too. I found it very hard to pick just three books from the list!
I knew nothing about this, so thank you very much. I’m off to investigate right now. By the way, did you know that Diana Norman (Ariana Franklin) died this week? No more to look forward to if you enjoy the first, I’m afraid.
No, I didn’t know that, Annie. That’s sad news. I think three or four books in the series have already been published though?
There are four, however, the last one ended with the sort of cliffhanger that you would expect in a soap opera and was, I thought, not worthy of the writer. Now, I assume, we will never know how it turned out.
