Centennial IPA

The Glenside pub currently has Founder's IPA (as featured in last week's email) on tap. 

Duane Swierczynski - The Blonde (2007)

I've almost finished catching myself up with this author's novels. This one has the feel of an the television show "24" which is not a bad thing in my opinion. For one thing, the "chapters" all start with a time and location, and the majority of the book takes place over a span of approximately 12 hours of time. Also, the plot involves agents, terrorists, and lots of very fast-paced action which should hold your interest for the long haul. The thing I've enjoyed most is with this author, you never know what's coming next!

Leslie Charteris: Meet - the Tiger! (1928)

Prior to reading this book, my only exposure to the character "The Saint" was the from the 1997 Val Kilmer film. Although this book became the basis for over 100 later adventures, the author himself was not particular found of this 1st novel according to his own forward in the edition that I read. I personally only found this story to be mildly entertaining, and by the end of the book found it to be quite tedious. Although this may be the book created a memorable character and launched a series, I'll probably do a little bit more research before I revisit this author.
