British Mystery Series that Have Been Published in the Last 20 Years:

December 2, 2010

Gen asked:

I’d like to be able to access some modern writers who fit this genre. I quite like Beaton’s Agatha Raisin and Simon Brett’s Fethering series. As a previous poster asked, do you have a list of writers who have published in the last 20 years?

My Answer:

No, Gen, I don’t. That certainly would make a great theme on the Cozy Mystery site…

Yikes!  It looks like you are in luck, Gen! There are A LOT of authors with British mystery series who have been published during the last twenty years. (I should have just made a list of British mystery series that haven’t been published in the past twenty years!)

Also, I just want to point out that to find the chronological list of these authors’ books, all you need to do is put the name in the “Site Search” box near the top left of each page on the blog, and the first result seems to be pretty invariably the page on the site that lists the books. 

If, however, you want a list of all of the British mystery series on the Cozy Mystery site, then click on this link to take you to the Theme page.

Alan Gordon, Diane Morlan, Phil Rickman, & Gayle Wigglesworth… Four New Authors to the Cozy Mystery Site…

November 27, 2010

I have just added four new authors to the Cozy Mystery site. I haven’t read them yet, but other Cozy Mystery site readers think that they belong on the site:

Alan Gordon (a New York lawyer) writes an historical mystery series that takes place in the 13th century. Gordon’s Fools’ Guild Mystery Series features medieval court jesters who are also secret agents.

Diane Morlan is the author of the Jennifer Penny Mystery Series which takes place in Minnesota. Jennifer roasts and brews coffee, as well as sleuths.

Phil Rickman pens the Merrily Watkins Mystery Series which takes place in Great Britain. Merrily is a single mother and a Church of England parish priest. She is a type of exorcist for the Church.  Not Cozy.

Gayle Wigglesworth writes the Claire Gulliver Mystery Series. The sleuth is an ex-librarian who inherits a traveling bookshop. Each of the mystery books in this series take place in a different location.
