More Horse Tales

After reading Deadfall I jumped at the chance to enjoy another Lyndon Stacey novel but I was bitterly disappointed by Outside Chance. I couldn't warm to the main character Ben Copperfield (and not just because he was a journalist!) and I found that the setting of the circus just couldn't replace the action of the racetrack.

However, my faith in Stacey was restored when I read the next novel Six to One Against. Another fast-paced easy read with a likeable hero in Gideon Blake. Plus a good romance as well! I'm glad I didn't give up on this author.

Not Just Another Horse Story

If you've read all the Dick Francis and John Francome stories and you're looking for another great fast-paced mystery, try Deadfall by Lyndon Stacey. This story has just the right combination of twists and turns and the character Lincoln Tremayne is a likeable well-intentioned hero.

I'll be looking for more of Lyndon Stacey's adventures and will keep you posted!
