Review
This is a brilliant set of amazing discs covering the first 10 books on 32CD's.
This set are read by two very well known people, James Macpherson and Bill Patterson. Both are fantastic at getting the stories across and doing the many voices that are needed for each book. Because they both come from north of the border, Bill from Glasgow and James from Edinburgh there is that rich gaelic tone to their voices which is so perfect for these stories written by one of Edinburgh's finest - Ian Rankin.
I have now read everyone of Ian's books and to be able to take them in my car with me, on long journeys is fantastic, and allows me to wallow in the Scottish lilting language, making me feel I'm back up north in my old home in Scotland.
Many of the stories have already been review on the web site so do go and find your favorite book and see what you think. There are two of my favorite ones within this set they are 'Mortal Causes' and 'Dead Souls'.
