Is he any good? I keep meaning to read The Ossians (about the fictional band that plays Thurso) but never get around to it.

I find the books to be entertaining light reading (ideal for my long bus journey to and from work) and often feature places in Scotland (such as Thurso) which seldom feature in Scottish literature. A new book is published roughly once per year. More information about the author here:

Thanks, ecb, pretty much bears out my first impressions. I've a copy of The Ossians lying about the house somewhere, will get round to reading it some time.
started reading Rage of angels by sidney sheldon
"Raven Songs," an anthology of poetry by local writer Meg MacLeod....ISBN 9780995752108.
That looks interesting. Is there anywhere in Thurso selling copies? I'm home next week and it'd be nice to support a local artist.
Got my copy through Amazon.
