For any of the rest of you who come upon this thread, Box of
Tricks is a wonderful read by an author who deserves more
recognition. Read it, and vote for Jeff!
Well done, Jeff. It took my local Waterstones an age to order the
book – I guess they don't count Tyndal Street Press as Dan Brown
territory – but it was worth the wait!

Thank you all for such a great response. I'm touched by so many
people saying good things about Box of Tricks. It came in second in
the October/ November voting. Thanks to all who voted for it. You
can still buy it, of course - Amazon or demand to know why your
local bookshop hasn't got a copy!

There are very few books that my wife and I agree on – our tastes
hardly ever overlap. But we both loved Box of Tricks. That
says something, Jeff. You've written a book that works in all sorts
of different ways.
Incidentally, the taste business is why I hang onto every word
(there usually aren't that many to hang on to) when Fiona reads
my work. I know that my writing is on the edge of her comfort
zone!
Well done, Jeff!

So glad you both enjoyed Box of Tricks, John. Thanks for the

good wishes and success for 2010 to you both. A brand new decade!
The tennies, or maybe the teenies? Only time will tell.
