They've announced that Hilary Mantel wins 2012 Man Booker Prize -- which I think is an outrageous way of putting it: Bring up the Bodies won the Man Booker Prize and who cares who wrote it ......
A nice one-two punch for Mantel -- who will presumably be going for the series-trifecta with the third volume in the series.
I've been a Hilary Mantel fan since quite a while back, but historic fiction of this sort ranks just (well, okay: far) below bodice-rippers as far as the kind of fiction I'm interested in so I haven't read the last two novels. But you can get your copy of Bring up the Bodies at Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk.
