Yes,
for the absolutely criminal charge of .77p (GBP) and other foreign currency equivalents,
you can download many great novels and story collections from Crooked Cat. Just
go to Amazon and type in ‘Crooked Cat Publishing’ and you’ll be offered an
impressive list of books – and I’m sure that many of them are bound to appeal.
My apologies if you're a regular reader of my blog, as you'll know this already. Anyway, here
are mine:
BLOOD
OF THE DRAGON TREES

Visitors to Tenerife will recognise the
beauty of the island in Nik Morton's evocative descriptions of what the island
has to offer to the tourist, but few, if any, will recognise the darker side so
vividly portrayed in this novel. No doubt the fiction is inspired by Morton's
ability as a thriller writer, and not something that he has uncovered by
stealth. It is a fact that immigrants head for the Canary Islands from Africa,
but here Morton has added spice to the tragedies that often unfold through
people trafficking. … Morton takes the story along at a fine pace, and readers
of his past novels will not be disappointed in his narrative, his
characterisation and careful plotting.
More than one reviewer who states that they don’t read short stories has raved about this collection of cases about Leon Cazador, half-English, half-Spanish private eye, ‘in his own words’.
A
sample review: ‘Twenty-two individual stories … are absolute little gems. The pace
of each is perfectly judged to reach its conclusion at just the right time and
in just the right way… Not only will they appeal to general lovers of short
stories but in particular those with experience of living in Spain will I’m
sure feel a certain resonance with these stories.’

A sample review
…
the moral question is posed about the rights or wrongs of taking the law into
your own hands, and how addictive it can be. How many of us have been sickened
by a crime only to be disgusted at the leniency of the law? Oh how we would
want to dish out our own form of punishment. But where do you stop? And how
long before you go over the line and commit murder in the name of justice? This
is a thought-provoking story. I found myself being drawn into it gradually,
just like the avenger is drawn into the compulsion to continue exacting
revenge. Nik Morton's story will demand that you stay with it and discover how
far the vigilante will go.
