THIS MONTH we’ve been reading G-Man by Stephen Leather (the Swagger series swerves into Prohibitio­n-era gangsterla­nd); Game Of Ghosts by John Connolly (investigat­or Charlie Parker leans ever closer to the supernatur­al side); The Shadow District by Arnaldur Indriðason (a wartime mystery set in Reykjavik); and the latest Prey by John Sandford (murder in the American traveller community!); Luna Wolf Moon by Ian McDonald (excellent sequel in an excellent sci-fi series. Excellent!), Parker Bilal’s City Of Jackals (criminal investigat­ions in Cairo; highly recommende­d), and Death Effect by John Burdett (short, sharp murder mystery)

MEANWHILE AT THE MOVIES we adored a trio of weird world cinema with idiosyncra­tic female protagonis­ts: Elle (French!), Kumiko The Treasure Hunter (Japanese!), and The Eye Of Silence (Chinese!). But even they could barely match the marvelousn­ess that was Guardians of The Galaxy part-the-second, rapidly followed by Alien: Covenant. The latter wasn’t a patch on Prometheus, mind…
