I like his books. Got the set, including his lastest, Paths Of Glory.
As for the politicians, I don't like any of them.

I had the misfortune to meet him once, thankfully only very briefly, and thought that he was really smarmy!

From what I have read about him he is a very disturbed human being,but laughing all the way to the bank! Puts another slant on "storyteller".

Not keen on Jeffrey Archer but have to admit some of his books especially Kane and Abel are a very good read.

QuoteKane and Abel

Great book definitely by smarmy been in prison for perjury politician millionaire life peer sticky muddy type.  Probably no 3 on my list of best books.  I was lent the book years ago and read it before knowledge of the author could cloud my judgement of the book.

Film staring Peter Strauss and Sam Neil also good.

Apparently Private Eye has a character called Lord Archole.

Presume the guy does not know where fact stops and fiction starts.  My mother suffered from the same affliction so I know something of that nightmare.

If I was the science fiction guy I think I would change my name.

Digeroo if you mean Geoffrey Archer for the science fiction guy please note that he actually writes contemporary thrillers!
