Currently reading: The Necropolis Railway

[monissaw.livejournal.com]

I am reading The Necropolis Railway by Andrew Martin now that the library has finally decided I can have it. I put it on hold and it was "In Transit" for weeks (stuck on a train?). So I cancelled that hold and redid, and the next day both copies were "In Transit". Then I went in the day after that to pick up something else and the book was waiting for me.

So I'm reading it. There are some signals it might not be a book that'll interest me but it's an easy read and I'm already up to page 31 after one bus trip. So I expect to finish it.

ETA Seems it one of those books that whispers "Read me. Just a page or two" when you are trying to do other things.

My dad has been reading that recently. Mentioned it was more jokey than later books in the series.

Jokey?

GR reviews give the impression it's not as good as the later ones
