And Thereby Hangs a Tale Review
I have purchased and read every Jeffery Archer book I could find. He is a fantastic author. At first I didn't think I would like his books of short stories. I was wrong - they are great and "Thereby Hangs a Tale is no exception and ranks with my favorites of his books of short stories - A Quiver Full of Arrows, Twelve Red Herrings, and a Cat O'Nine tales. He graduated from Oxford University, was a Member of Parliament, a Playwright and served two years of a four year term in prison. If you have never read any of his books, do so now.

I love the story and the author has delivered well once again. However, I believe it is Kindle and Amazon that has failed it's readers by not giving us the option to buy the full version.

Short stories have never been my favorite and even though I love Jeffrey Archer, his book of short stories was not that great. I would not have ordered it if I had realized beforehand that it was going to be short stories. A big disappointing.
And thereby hangs a tale - -
A light and quick read that is entertaining, yet compelling for a five minute break. Would also recommend for young adult readers although there are a few adult themes.
