The Murray Whelan Trilogy

If you still haven't acquainted yourself with Murray Whelan, then it's high time you did. With the release earlier this year of Shane Maloney's latest Whelan novel, Sucked In, now's the perfect time to read his first three adventures, bundled together nicely in a single volume. Great value. You know it makes sense.

Praise for The Murray Whelan Trilogy:

'Shane Maloney writes like an angel, always in control of his plot and pace. Not that many readers will notice this: they'll be too busy laughing.'

Ian Rankin

'A comic writer of considerable gifts...Maloney is terrific.'

Age

'Brilliantly mixes the comic and the tragic...has you laughing at the moments where a gasp may be more appropriate.'

Rolling Stone

'Fast-paced, fresh, unerringly funny.'

Houston Chronicle
