Kate Atkinson's Jackson Brodie series.
Colin Dexter's original Morse books.
Henry Williamson's "A Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight". (You have to get past his very misguided support of Oswald Mosely and the UK Fascist movement but his descriptions of soldiering in the First World War are second to none.)
Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin series.
(And I'd add Richmal Crompton's 'William' books to the Under 10s suggestions form ragingpup!)Last edited by CTMilller; 22-02-2026, 06:26 PM.

A couple of lighter reads. The Wilt series by Tom Sharpe and the two Notes from a Small Island books by Bill Bryson. Outside these 'seies', loved all the books by those two.
I also liked the early Reacher novels by Lee Child but there are so many now, if I pick one up to look at on a 2nd hand book stall it's hard to determine if I've already read it as they all seem to be morphing into one (in my mind anyway).
