Plenty to choose from. <br />I have a few Brewers knocking around but not many originals, most are reprints/reissues. <br />Read them, cash them in and buy more books! Sounds like a sensible plan apart from the last bit! col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-5239635927447697222016-01-05T02:43:27.828-08:002016-01-05T02:43:27.828-08:00I too have missed out on Seymour -- should give hi...I too have missed out on Seymour -- should give him a try. The two Brewers look pretty mouthwatering (and may be quite valuable!) and the Pronzini should be fn, if vol 1 in the series is anything to go by.noirencyclopediahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02843963811822980754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-34384404254940392622016-01-05T00:22:03.125-08:002016-01-05T00:22:03.125-08:00Haha - TOAST is a kind of autobiography of a TV-ch...Haha - TOAST is a kind of autobiography of a TV-chef-cum-author Nigel Slater. My wife likes his cook books. I like the guy because he comes across as a gentle, genuinely nice bloke - not self-satisified and uber-smug like a lot of his contemporaries (yes Jamie Oliver, I'm thinking of you).<br /><br />Seymour is well worth a punt in my opinion - I can recommend THE OUTSIDERS and HARRY'S GAME, as they are the two I've read. col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-30535638384498604932016-01-05T00:13:29.733-08:002016-01-05T00:13:29.733-08:00I feel sorry for 'Toast', held captive amo...I feel sorry for 'Toast', held captive among the thrillers.
