Comment on Good Thief's Guide and a drought in the arcs department

Thanks to Chris Ewan for his comments re the Good Thief's Guide to Paris post!

I knocked off all 3 Torchwood titles as I suspected they really didn't take long to read. I'm trying to get hold of a copy of The Manual of Detection by Jedidiah (spelling) Berry but our copies haven't come in yet and I can't find an arc for it - bummer! Also I noticed that the new Lisa Lutz is out so I'll post the review of that next. Where are all the good arcs??? I went through the whole pile yesterday while searching for the Berry arc hoping I might come across the new Susan Hill or the next Matthew Reilly or even the next Larsson but natch.
