Philip Gooden

I've been working over 40 hours a week lately and as such have had little time to read except before I go to bed. As such, my list of completed books is sadly short:

• 07/01/08 Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code, by Eoin Colfer
• 09/01/08 Memnoch the Devil, by Anne Rice
• 23/01/08 The Horse and His Boy, by Clive Staples Lewis
• 23/01/08 Hamlet, by William Shakespeare (Audio Book)
• 23/01/08 Mask of Night, by Philip Gooden

I really enjoyed reading Mask of Night by Philip Gooden. This book is a Shakespearean murder mystery. That is, it is set in the time of Shakespeare from the prospective of a player who has the honour of performing Shakespeare's plays. Philip Gooden doesn't seem to be very renowned, but don't let that stop you from reading his books. If you are a fan of Shakespeare and you like crime novels, then you will enjoy his books.
