MICHAEL WALSH. For hundreds of years books given as gifts – for multiple reasons – have been the easiest and unchallenged perfect gift for loved ones, friends and colleagues, and family.

A book is a gift that can be opened every day for many years to come. With such a wide choice of titles, there is a book to please every age group irrespective of their standing.

Picked wisely, a book given as a gift gives you a one-off opportunity to send a special message to someone important to you.

This reminds me, that all Michael Walsh books can be bought directly from the author and each title is about the same price (€20) as their retail price. If you are in the European Union or the UK a simple bank transfer of £20/€20 is done in a moment.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT: A book or novel signed by the author – even if he never becomes famous is far more valuable than an unsigned book.

Something else to be smug about: Imagine your good fortune if someone had gifted you a book like Death Wish, The Longest Day, The Wild Geese, a Wilbur Smith or J K Rowling novel BEFORE THEY BECAME FAMOUS. What an investment – for the price of a theatre ticket.

A TIP that will save you a lot of money. MICHAEL WALSH’s books are all available direct from LULU who are the author’s preferred book publisher.

WHY? Buying direct is always the cheapest option: Furthermore, you receive a top-quality smile-raising book well in time for Christmas. No one delivers quicker – duty-free – than LULU.

AMAZON is best avoided. By abusing their monopoly, Amazon who buy our books from LULU, add an eye-watering mark-up.

HAS MICHAEL WALSH A FAVORITE BOOK? No, to me, my books are like a mother’s children. All my books and novels are equally dear to me.

No mother worked so hard to bring her young to perfection. Interestingly, the characters in my books like Fraser McLeod, Jack Scarlett, and Detective-Inspector Eric Jansen became very real.

The same can be said of Gareth, Leonora and Felicity – in THE DOVETAILS. This engaging novel is blessed with a sequel. THE ENIGMA OF TIFFANY also draws on the author’s life experiences.

All Michael Walsh books are authentic and each is laced with real-life experiences and events. For this reason, A Michael Walsh book (Click Bookstore) makes the perfect gift.
