I've become hooked on this series, which I like far better than the author's several others. This latest is excellent, except I think it is rushed at the end.

This review is from: Poisoning in the Pub (Paperback)

I would have to say that this is not one of Simon Brett's better books on his Fethering Mystery stories. His earlier books are much better if you have never read any of his stories. After ready most of his books, this story is just a rehash of all of his other Fethering Mystery books. I found myself skimming the pages so I could finish quicker. Even the characters have lost their charm for me.

2.0 out of 5 stars The darkest in the series, February 25, 2010

By

This review is from: The Poisoning in the Pub (Five Star First Edition Mystery) (Hardcover)

I've read the entire Fethering Series and think Mr. Brett is an excellent author, however, this installment was very dark. I gave it 150 pages and then had to put it down. It was depressing. The murder of a mentally challenged man was too much. There was a lot of repeating throughout which made it dull. No humor.
