Sounds good, will check that out.

Completely unrelated to this thread really, I recently re-read the 39 Steps for the first time since going to Scotland. I enjoyed the settings in that too.


Be warned... I found it very, er, challenging to find myself identifying with an alien engaged in such a horrific process, looking at humankind through the eyes of another species as just animals. The book is much better than the film in my opinion, since the film is only loosely based on it.... but I reckon the film's excellent as well. And that's got nothing to do with Scarlett Johansson being in it as nature intended. Nothing at all.
