I'm overloading on Agatha Christie at the moment, but it's so enjoyable to be able to escape into her vintage world where people speak to each other in a decent way and there is absolutely no profanity whatsoever.
The Hound of Death is an interesting collection of short stories, excellent for dipping into if you please (although I pounded through the whole thing in a couple of hours) and gives Agatha Christie a chance to show her supernatural side instead of just straight crime.
Some of the stories are very strange, others are very disturbing, but all are written in that same wonderful Christie vein. Compared to her last offering, this really is Agatha back on top form and I finished the book with relief from experiencing so much mysterious variety. The second book of hers that I have read which consists of shorter stories and still as good.
