If I had any kind of head for marketing I'd be introducing this column by saying something along the lines of 'back by popular demand'. In fact, I have not received a single email asking why there has not been a book review on autosport.com for the past year, so instead I am going to plump for, 'back because... um, I want it to be'.
At any rate, the column marks the return of the review section that was a regular part of the autosport.com journal, and before that, Atlas F1, from the late 1990s until 2006. But in bringing it back, we're also making a few minor changes, the most visible being the name - Bookworm Critique made me sound like a nerd...
There will also be a couple of small tweaks to the format. In place of the single, full-length reviews of one book per fortnight, we'll endeavour to mix things up with some extra stuff - perhaps an extra, shorter review of another book (as is the case this week), or a Q&A with an author, or maybe even the occasional detour into the world of DVDs if something interesting happens to land on my desk. If there's anything you'd like to see, feel free to contact us.
