Some books I like that nobody else has ever heard of:

I am re=reading "The Menorah Men," by Lionel Davidson, Davidson also wrote "The Rose of Tibet," A great adventure story,reminiscent of Alexandre Dumas. I just looked up Lionel Davidson, the author, and discovered that he was a three-time golden dagger winner. He was an englishman, and had that particular felicity of style more common in English authors than in others. His books are sure pleasure to read.

    I'd like to recommend another Englishman writer (sadly, a late one) that i find outstanding (well, not just me...whole body of literary critics in the UK, apparently).
    Philip Kerr.
    See some quotes from his Gunther series

    Try at least one book, then tell me if you like him.
