If You Like Gyles Brandreth Books, You’ll Love…

Oscar Wilde and a Death of No Importance: A Mystery is the first book in the Oscar Wilde Murder Mystery series. When a young artist’s model is murdered, Wilde and his friends, Arthur Conan Doyle and Robert Sherard, will begin their investigation. The crime scene only has one one small splatter of blood and no other signs of a murder. This book sees Wilde investigate the curious case of Billy Wood’s death, which ultimately serves as the inspiration for his classic book, The Picture of Dorian Gray.

Have You Eaten Grandma? is Gyles’ hilarious take on the world of grammar. As you can see with the title of this book, grammar matters. He gets into where people have been going wrong and shows a path on how to get it right every time. An author of many books, Gyles is passionate about the importance of language as he believes it is what we use to define ourselves and what truly makes us human.
