Not Like The TV Series... - By: , 19 Aug 2001
This book is very involving, just don't expect David Jason. Frost is scruffy & foul-mouthed, but down to earth & understanding. And he never sleeps! This was the particular book which got me into the Frost series & is probably the best. It is funny but also thrilling, especiallly at the end. Most recommended.
Surprisingly good - By: , 19 Nov 2000
If you can get over the misogyny & general avoidance of anything remotely pc you will love Frost. I did not try the books for ages (because of the tv series), but they reallly are worth reading - for the humour particularly. Don't expect realism - this is just pure fun. Night Frost is my favourite so far - the relationship with Mullet is priceless!
Engrossing black humour - By: SueBee, 14 Nov 2000
The Frost series of books are engrossing & involving, sometimes quite complicated, detective stories. Frost himself is perhaps the most sympathetic character in them, the rest are pretty awful. One gripe I have is Wingfield's treatment of women in the Frost books - they are either crumpet to be raped and/or made foul remarks about, or batty sex-starved old maids. I get the feeling the author does not like women very much. However, I shalll perservere with them as I like good 'tec story. Pity about the misogyny.
