146: The state of British Crime - with Donna Morfatt
Manage episode 382309567 series 3307389
On this week's episode we ask - how healthy is British crime fiction? Who better to ask than prolific reviewer and crime festival organiser, Donna Morfett, who returns to The Hobcast Book Show for a second time. A week after hosting her event, The Dark Side of Brighton, which featured some of the biggest names in UK crime fiction, Donna explains that whilst the genre remains hugely popular, new entrants to the industry are finding it harder than ever to find their way in.
Also this week, Adrian bemoans KDP's announcement to begin beta-testing AI narrated audiobooks in the U.S, while Rebecca asks if W H Smith's new book recycling service will impact second-hand sales in charity shops?
