Bristling with razor-sharp wit, this is the first-person account of petty thief Bex, who, along with his partner-in-crime Ollie, just about gets by on the money he makes house-breaking the suburbs of London. Bex and Ollie stick together, have a laugh and on a good week make enough money to stay in the pub all weekend. "The Burglar Diaries "is a hilarious insight into the mind of a petty criminal.In the late 1980s, after being convicted of various offences, including burglary, Danny King gave up crime, got an education and started to work as a journalist. He lives in London.

"King's writing is sharp, his comedy as black as Donald Rumsfeld's heart . . ."-"Maxim"Godfrey Bishop works for a soft-porn magazine. He talks to the models, he reads hundreds of filthy readers' letters, he organizes the photo shoots and even gets to direct the action. He has, according to his nonporn friends, "the best job in the world." Chuck into the mix a 12 girl orgy, a stable of alcoholic co-workers, an angry argumentative feminist, and a obsessive letter-writer and you have Danny King's funniest novel yet.

For Ian, being a hitman means good money, security and a neverending supply of contracts. It sometimes causes problems with his lady friends, but by and large, they accept his frequent absences. But Ian faces a moral conflict when he's given a contract to get rid of Janet, the only woman who really understands him. And moral conflicts are not something that Ian can handle. Dark and funny, "The Hitman Diaries" continues Danny King's unique take on what makes lowlife characters tick.
