| | 1. |  | Brisingr (Inheritance Cycle) from Doubleday Price: £8.49
Customer Review:
 After having thoroughly enjoyed the first two books, Eragon and Eldest, my expectations for the third were admittedly high. Even so, when I was reading Brisingr, the only thought that kept me reading on was that these rather lame side plots were building up to a "gripping" scene. To my dismay, this... more info

| | 2. |  | The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life from Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Price: £12.50
Customer Review:
 How can the most comprehensive biography of the world's most remarkable allocator of capital be disappointing? Alice Schroeder has used her several years of access to Buffett to good, but not great effect.
This is a terrific human interest story, but how many purchasers will be buying the... more info

| | 4. |  | Nigella Christmas: Food, Family, Friends, Festivities from Chatto & Windus Price: £14.99
Customer Review:
 Nigella's latest offering is beautifully presented and I fancied a few of the recipes. Quite a few of the ingredients are unusual, that is to say not straightforward to obtain, and expensive (eg: chocolate covered candied clementines). Nigella continues to push her idea that at Christmas, we want... more info

Customer Review:
 More than 20 years ago now, a good friend pressed a copy of "The Colour of Magic" into my hands that launched a love affair with Terry's books that lasts to this day. Like most frustrated authors who lack the talent to deliver themselves, I read a lot, and I think I have read pretty much all that... more info

| | 9. |  | The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (Definitions) from Definitions Price: £3.49
Customer Review:
 I have two major criticisms of this book, only one of which can really be leveled directly at John Boyne: his writing sucks, and needed another couple of drafts. It's great that Boyne has written a book for children which is designed to make its audience engage with the world (a la His Dark... more info

| | 10. |  | Azincourt from HarperCollins Publishers Ltd Price: £11.39
Customer Review:
 Cornwell at his very, very best.
If you enjoyed the Harlequin series featuring Thomas of Hookton then you will love this.
I read it within two days of receiving it and am gutted that it wasn't much longer even though it fully satisfied me as a true historical read.
Cornwell is the... more info
