Welcome Back Len Deighton

At least there is some good news out there. Harper Collins have announced that they are to republish all of Len Deighton's books. All of them will have new introductions by the author. Of course, Deighton hasn't really been unavailable. He sold so many, you could always find plenty of copies of his books at your local charity shop. I've been working my way through them, and, for pace, suspense, humour and insight, he is hard to match. The Harry Palmer books and the Game, Set and Match series are rightly praised. But even lesser known works such as Winter are fantastic. Welcome back.
