Customer Reviews

Its all becoming a bit clearer..... - Rated 5/5
Ok, so where am I so far? Read the previous two. Loved 74, but nearly gave up on 77...seemed to be going nowhere. Noticed that some reviewers to 77 seemed to have got stuck about there too. But 80 begins to tie up some loose ends and the really -to me - strange ending to 77 begins to make some sense. These are certainly two-read books. It takes a lot of understanding to see what's going on. Stick with it. Can't wait to round it all off....


It's oh so dark - Rated 5/5
There are those authors who strive to scare with writing vicious gore packed novels... However, David Peace has written a masterpiece here, the cloak of a real life horror story shrouding this book with out even trying. A fictional tale surrounding the hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper, Peace's unique style of writing gives this an edge that only a few dare to replicate. 1980 is a crime classic, and an unputdownable but uncomfortable read. To sum up - Think the film 'seven' set in Yorkshire!


Another superb episode of Peace's "Red Riding" quartet - Rated 5/5
David Peace's hallucinatory, horrific Yorkshire crime novels become darker and deeper by the volume. His psychological landscape is dominated by the Yorkshire Ripper, who terrorised the North of England through the late seventies and early eighties; Peace shows the police hunting him to be only half a step less psychologically damaged than the man they're trying to find.

Uncomfortable, disturbing, chilling reading, in a fragmented, fractured style. Hieronymous Bosch meets James Ellroy somewhere off the M62. Memorable and terrifying.


Best yet from Master Peace! - Rated 5/5
Peace's Red Riding Quartet is rapidly turning from The British Crime Series into the best British Quartet ever, regardless of genre. I have never read anything quite like it. Each book is different from the last and they just get better and better. Nineteen Seventy Four was full on,in yer face Ultra Noir, Seventy Seven was like Dickens imagining Ellroy in an opium dream. And Eighty, well you just want to read the first so-called Transmission. From the British Ellroy to the New Dante in two books. This man is our best writer, period. Read him.
