ANOTHER MIXED BAG THIS MONTH IN THE FREE AND BARGAIN BOOK COLLECTION for you. Hunt for the good historicals, some free, some bargains.
The joy of wild flowers. These are Canadian Prairie wild flowers, Lady's Slipper Orchids, growing in a roadside ditch. There are still places on the Saskatchewan Prairie which blaze with a glorious range of colours during the brief time the wild flowers bloom. It surely lift the spirits to see them. I hope in the July selection of free and bargain books you'll find some to read and lift your spirits.
I apologise to those of you, like me, who shudder at those few Romance cheese cake covers in the lists. Slide past quickly for there are many more attractive covers and non-romance novels. The Smashwords sale offers 100s of books and many are non-fiction too.

Canary and the Mothman
I haven't read them myself but they have good reviews and friends have enjoyed them. Let me know what you think.
Lovely Autumn, coloured leaves and skies, such different colours from summer sunsets, cooler and more changeable. Nights are closing in and it's getting dark around six p.m. instead of eleven-ish. My favourite evening walk with the dog is in a valley and Autumn is time to change the walk to midday when the valley still has sunlight and warmth.
World news is so depressing I need all the sunlight I can find to keep me cheerful and an escape route via a good book is vital. I've found a couple here and hope you do too

And here's a free book I really enjoyed.
Set in 16thC Germany and written around a fascinating idea.
REVIEW:
RIVERS OF LONDON by Ben Aaronovitch
Brilliant. I haven't laughed so much for ages. Hero Peter Grant is a new Metropolitan police constable who may not speak with a wicked tongue but can certainly think those thoughts about people, politics and London architecture.
This is the first novel in the series and I'm reading every one of them and the graphic versions too. Ben Aaronovitch will be known to Dr Who fans and he's used his fantastic imagination to create a London and world where police forces have to deal with magic. Of course it's all hush hush and the general public must never know, so in London there's the Folly and Chief Inspector Nightingale who is a brilliant wizard. Peter becomes involved and is soon an apprentice dealing with some crazy and uncanny people and incidents.
Aaronovitch is a clever writer, his plots are complex and twisty, his characters fully 3D, and his wicked sense of humour just adds to the fun. His idea - police with a magic department - is now copied by others. Don't fall for anything less than the original Aaronovitch and do read the series in chronological order otherwise you'll miss half the fun and won't understand the subtleties.
