Anyone read any of his books??? Ive read about 5 or 6 and theyre all great...he's a really good storyterller.If you dont know, this guy is a lord ( Lord J. Archer) and was put in gaol for perverting the cause of justice ( i think it was ). I think a newspaper had published somehing about him visitng a prostitute and he sued for defamation, won but then was found to have paid off a few wittnesses. Anyway he has written two diarys on his time in prison and they are both excellent reads. They really give an insight into prison life....he was a hight security one for a while and was surounded by murders and rapists...heaps of funny stories, a few tragic ones aswell. Excellent read that brought me back to earth about society.

I recommend that if you are in Big W that you check his books out (thats basically the only place ive seend a big collection of his books and come at a very good price).

i've got most of his collection because my dad's a big fan as well. I just finished "the fourth estate" and realli enjoyed it.

all my english teachers hate him though.

Eleventh Commandment is one of the best novels of that genre that I've ever read. Archer made me want to be a CIA agent like Fitzgerald when I first read it in yr 9. I think once, I even out down in a survey that I wanted to be an assassin

Kane and Abel is the best!
