- Excellent character and stories
This was my first exposure to Ian Rankin and to the Rebus character. I am a big fan of P.D. James and these stories are on a par.
From the off both the storylines and the Rebus character are developed in an interesting and sustained way. Each book gets better and more complex, with very good continuing arcs and strands.
I have since bough just about all Rankin's other books and am enjoying them immensely.
Thoroughly recommended.

- excellent reading and great value for money
three terrific books which I thoroughly enjoyed. First time I ever read Rankin, but I think I shall read more. Humorous, with some terrible puns and lines which were a great contrast to the dark plot. First rate and the 3 books for just over a tenner is great value.

- Completely Hooked
Rebus is deeply addictive and grows more interesting with every book. I've worked my way through the more cut-and-dried novels of the Early Years and have just moved swiftly through these "Three Great Novels". For the moment I don't think I can easily envisage inhabiting any other world than this dour Scot's. I was much amused by the section in Strip Jack where he finds an old lady who keeps the phone box near her house as a miniature version of her own starched front parlour - a nice piece of human observation - if you are the nearest house to the phone box and it is ill kept it reflects badly upon you. The remote Scottish hamlet where my grandparents lived featured just such a phone box complete with busy-body crone who kept the directory ... Read More:

- Rankin is GOD
Great read. I started the Rebus collection with Set in Darkness and could not stop , i had to go and buy every other book in the series and haven't been let down.

Best to start on Rebus : The Early Years which will give you a better insight to the characters involved because most will appear in later books.

Go read !!

- Three of Rankin's finest in one book
Once again Rankin surpasses himself. Books four, five and six in one volume. Extremely good value for money (especially if you're Scottish!). Each tale twists and turns, whilst all the time leaving you wondering .... who dunnit. Reubus (and Rankin) never fail you.
