Rhyming Rings

Rhyming Rings

by David Gemmell (Author)

Synopsis

David Gemmell was the UK's number one fantasy and historical novelist until his death in 2006. A regular Sunday Times bestseller, and international sensation, his legacy lives on through his novels, his influence on the genre, and through the David Gemmell Legend awards.

Rhyming Rings is a never-before-seen Gemmell novel, discovered in his papers by his widow, Stella Gemmell. Merging autobiographical details of Gemmell's life as a journalist in South London with a serial killer and a tinge of the supernatural, this is perfect for fans of David's work, as well as readers of gritty crime novels. Set against the backdrop of a London simmering with poverty, change and racial tension, this taut thriller is a fitting legacy for the great writer.

This book includes a brand new introduction from massive Gemmell fan Conn Iggulden, and an afterword by Gemmell's friend Stan Nicholls.

An ambidextrous killer is murdering women, leaving virtually no evidence behind, and struggling journalist Jeremy Miller wishes he was covering the case. Instead, he's stuck with heart-warming local stories about paraplegic teenagers and elderly psychic ladies.

So when his stories and the murder case start to converge no one is more surprised than Jeremy.

Or, it turns out, more at risk.

Media Reviews
A fresh chance to sample the work of a departed master. * SFX *
Nothing short of incredible. * SCIFIBULLETIN *
Despite sitting in a very different genre, glimpses of classic Gemmell shine through. * SciFiNow *
Gemmell captures all of this perfectly. He tells a crime tale routed in social commentary. He captures believable characters. * THE BOOK BAG *
It does remind you just how damned good David Gemmell was. * CONCATENATION *
