After finishing my 51st book of the year, my next read will be something that I received for my birthday just over a week ago. There are books on my to be read pile that have been there since before the Brexit referendum!

Still behind in my King canon, but I've at last reached the age of Covid . . . and wait, the villain appears to be a retired English teacher. I'm not taking notes, really . . .

As an old tabletop RPGer, I grimly accepted this recommendation into the series by Dinniman. Hopefully I am more entertained than the trite humor of writers like Pratchett.
