When I find a new author, I have a compulsion to read all of his or her books. If the writer has a series, I must read the books in order. What I find frustrating is figuring out the order of the books. It takes some detective work to track this down, so I was thrilled to find the site: http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/ You can search by the author’s last name, see all the books they have written, the order in which they were written and if they are a series, the chronological order of the titles. It is a UK site, but they list US prices and availablity. Now that I’m hooked on the Australian crime writer Peter Temple, I was able to figure out which book to read after Bad Debts. The sad thing is that the third book, Dead Point, doesn’t seem to be available anywhere. Well, now that his new book The Broken Shore (and the start of a new series) is getting critical acclaim beyond that of the typical crime novel, I hope that his older books will soon be reissued.
