Dr Blockbuster

quoted Rankin as telling a reporter at an Edinburgh literary festival.

First :smiles: Dr Blockbuster says it is the Edinburgh International Book Festival ... the biggest and best !

Secondly: Ian Rankin might well have said that since a) he is a crime writer b) he is at the EIBF and c) he does great publicity for himself.

Thirdly: Dr Blockbuster will be at the EIBF today, so I'll keep an eye out when I'm in any cafes.

I love both Rankin and Rowling and detective stories so if this is true this
is very cool.
