Yes Soutra it was me who told you about the books last year. I have always been a Phil Rickman fan, but have to 'buck the trend' and say that I have enjoyed the non Merrily books he writes much better , although of course, I still enjoy the Merrily ones as well.As time went on though , I wanted to say to Phil Rickman, please have Merrily enjoying herself now and then and also allow her to EAT as tea and toast seem to be the only things she consumes.Also buy her a few clothes so that she doesn't have to live in her daughter's old duffel coat [ a bit Jonathan Creek.]
I would like to see the series televised, I have Sky tv [did someone say it was on Sky?]
