it's a while since I've read a Peter James, so can't remember exact details. i started reading the first one with my other half, but he got completely fed up with the style of writing and so i finished it on my own. I will definately try one of his earlier books to see what they were like, but I think he will probably stick to the grace books now that he has had such a hit with them.

I've enjoyed a couple of his more suspenseful horror type books and am getting on well enough with the Grace. One thing that does slightly irritate me is the detailed references to locations. It almost comes across as a cynical attempt to create a Grace industry like there's a Rebus one in Edinburgh.----- Original Message ----- From: "Shell" <shell@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <electrobooks@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, April 04, 2009 10:47 PM Subject: [electrobooks] Peter James and Shadow Walker.I believe some of peter James's pre-Grace books are more of the supernatural kind, but I haven't tried any yet. I do enjoy his use of the psychics in the Roy Grace series and how he tries to keep it secret. He's such a nice bloke too, I like to hear him on Mayo when a new book is coming out. I'm not sure about the Shadow Walker though, it's getting a bit of a slating on the book group, but I still say I enjoyed it very much. Will be interested to see what you think.
