		<description><![CDATA[More kudos for whoever stocks the graphic novel shelf in my local library - I hereby send you another "ook" of cyber-approval. Knowing about the Alan Moore connection, and having read <a href="http://www.myweeklybook.net/2007/03/25/2007-reading-challenge-book-15/">The Sandman: Preludes and Nocturnes</a>, I just had to give this one a try and ended up thoroughly satisfied that I had.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I'd had a bit of a rude awakening regarding the Civil War and the Restoration courtesy of my favourite book of 2007, <em>An Instance of the Fingerpost</em> by Iain Pears. This splendid historical thriller is set during the period in question - and made me realise how just little I actually knew about it. So off to consult the Googloracle and track down an authoritative biography of England's most recent military dictator. This brought me to the feet of Christopher Hill who in 1970 wrote this ground-breaking biography.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And so to our last Modesty Blaise novel of 2007 - we really did go at them during this last month of the year. This book, published in 1969 and therefore not to be confused with the 1986 PD James novel of the same name, raises the stakes on the first page by separating the protagonists at the outset.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A comic series (with absolutely no connection with the similarly-named TV show) that I hadn't come across before and another one found just lying about on the display stand at the local library. And I'm glad it was, because it was really good. Apparently this has a little bit of comics history attached to its name, thanks to the fact its first few words are all "fuck" and it was the first one to be published under the Marvel MAX imprint that was designed for adult readers. Rumour (and Wikipedia) has it that it was actually one of the reasons this imprint was created in the first place.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I was talking about Modesty Blaise stories a few entries back, I pointed out that to read them you had to be prepared to believe six impossible things before breakfast. Well, this book is constructed around the idea that one of the protagonists has genuine, reliable and unforced psychic powers, probably best described as a form of precognition.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Of all the things to find lying about in your local library, this has to be pretty high on the unlikely list. Or maybe not, seeing as wherever library membership is bestowed upon me I seem to find great stacks of graphic novels lining the shelves, no doubt placed there by well-meaning souls hoping to cater for teenagers - and getting grumpy, misanthropic 30-somethings like me instead.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At last I'm coming to the end of my stockpile of Grafton's alphabet novels - and clearing the decks for L which I just got out of the library and must return at some point soon. I know people tend to have strong and often polarised views about this series. A review I read from a recent reader pointed out that this was both darker and less clear-cut than many of the Kinsey Millhone novels, and I would say that this is spot-on.]]></description>
