5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant 13 Feb 2012
By Mrs. Janet Barr
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the best one yet of the Parish and Richards series. I downloaded it as soon as it was available and couldn't put it down. Mary's character seems much stronger is this story, I thought she was a bit weak in the first 4 books. This book certainly has a lot of unusual twists and I would highly recommend it. You don't need to read the first four before this one, but , if you do, you do get the full background of the characters. I will eagerly await number 6.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better and better!! 14 Feb 2012
By Kim1001
Format:Kindle Edition
His Wrath is Come does not disappoint! The combination of Parish and Richards just gets better and better. It is a good mixture of crime, suspense and humour. You get caught up in the plot right from the beginning of the book and then suddenly out of the blue something happens that totally surprises you!! (In particular the bit about Ed!!)
The only down side is that I now have to wait until December for no 6 - no pressure Tim but hurry up!!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not sure about this one 23 Mar 2012
By Sarah Fisher
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
There are so many interesting ideas and plotlines floating around the Parish & Richards series but it seems like Tim Ellis hasn't actually decided what to do with some of them, nor where they will lead.

For example, the Ed Gorman sub-plot could well have begun in an earlier book and been expanded further/concluded in this one. On the other hand, the secret society/Parish's parents plot thread seems to be intended to draw the reader into the rest of the series, but the lack of any real exposition over the space of the last three books means the storyline is losing its interest.

I actually quite liked the major plot of this book, but there were times when it felt like a re-hashing of some of the previous books in the series, which can be disappointing. It feels as though Tim Ellis has some great ideas but is either trying too hard to get them into too small a word-count or he's trying to write too many books too quickly. I don't buy these books wanting vast great works of literature & I generally know what I'm getting, but when a plot has so many similar characteristics to previous volume in a series, it feels a bit like a cop-out.

The author has, it seems, paid attention to the reviewers who pointed out that the "Sirrrs" from Richards were getting rather irritating and these have been reduced, making Richards seem at least a little bit more of a grown-up. Most of the characters though, even Jed Parish himself, need fleshing out further.

On Kindle formatting - the excessive italics and capitals seem to have calmed down a bit, although I would still argue that most of them are not necessary at all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Great Book!! 18 Feb 2012
By Tracy Shayler
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is the 5th book in the Parish and Richards series and oh my god what a book!! from the first page yet
again I was hooked. Over the series I have seen the characters grow as partners as well as individuals
and I now feel as if I know them personally, the humour between the two at times has me laughing out loud
and then I turn the page and am shocked at the next twist.

Some how Tim Ellis manages to keep producing fantastic story lines with so many twists and turns that I have to
keep reading till the book is finished then I am counting down the days for the next book.
I have been following Tim,s bloggs and FB page and one thing that makes him stand out from other Authours
apart from the fact he is a great writer is just how much he cares about his readers!

Parish and Richards is a great series which I highly recommend,come to think of it buy any of his books,
you will not be disappointed but you will be hooked!

5.0 out of 5 stars awesome read 14 Feb 2012
By tom elder
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
i urge all readers of crime/mystery books to buy this book now, you will love it i promise. The introduction of Lola to the team is brilliant, i hope she stays as she adds that extra something to the cast. The humour between Parish and Richards is pure genius.This book will have you gripped very early and give you the most awesome read you will have had in a very long time. Yet again Tim Ellis ends the book leaving you gasping for the next one. Well written again Tim,looking forward to the next.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another good one. 6 Sep 2012
By D. Thomson
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I'm working my way through the Parish/Richards series and this one certainly maintains the standard of the previous ones. Sure there are annoying bits...for example, the detailed 'satnav style' descriptions of just about every journey -' he drove along the A2163, turned left onto the A421 and at the next roundabout took the second exit onto the A414 etc etc'. Richards' relationship with her boss/stepfather is somewhat strange and unrealistic, but that can be forgiven.
The story, however, is excellent and well constructed, although the finale arrives very quickly and is rather rushed through. But the secondary storyline running through this book is left open for further development and I have already downloaded number 6 in the series.
This is a series that is well worth reading and can be thoroughly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars The parish and richards saga.
Quite an enjoyable read, but one feels that as this partnership continues - it is becoming a little silly and unbelievable.

I liked this book though it was a little weak in places. The thing which irked me constantly was this : Why would "Richards" still call him "Sir" when they are alone on the beach... Read more
