I meant to mention this a while ago but other things came along. I managed to eventually visit the pop up bookshop in Wolverhampton, which finished last week, and sorry to say I was very disappointed this time. When it first started there were several tables with vintage paperbacks but now it’s just the odd 1970 PAN or older Penguins. It appeared to be mainly modern popular authors in paperback which I might pick up to read from our library but not to buy but I suppose they know what sells.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

I was pleased to hear from fellow PAN Fan Joe Mclaughlin who drew my attention to an album by Dave Graney, who I will confess was a new name to me. The cover is a sort of pastiche of PAN G551\/X239 <\/span><\/span>“For Your Eyes Only<\/span><\/em><\/strong><\/a>” <\/span><\/em><\/strong>with artwork by J Oval (Ben Ostrick) <\/span><\/span>The album cover is by what looks like T Mahoney in the signature.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a>While looking at Australian authors I was intrigued to come across Gabrielle Lord<\/span> <\/strong><\/a>who wrote a series of titles that reminded me of Sue Grafton<\/span><\/strong><\/a>. Sue sadly only managed to write 25 books for letters of the alphabet detective stories. Gabrielle has written 12 teen titles for each month of the year none of which were published by PAN. I have only found two of her titles published by PAN out of her 35 books but I’ll keep looking. Lord was born in Sydney in 1946 and worked as a teacher before becoming a full time writer.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n
