boots60 Posted 27 May 2016 Posted 27 May 2016 Just read his latest novel "The blade artist" A brilliant return to form from Edinburgh's finest featuring everyones favourite anti hero Francis Begbie. Will not give too much away but the beggar boy is now living in sunny California as a reformed family man & sculpturer to the stars. A man that has totally changed his violent outlook on life, or has he? If you liked trainspotting you'll love this.
Guest kristianity77 Posted 27 May 2016 Posted 27 May 2016 Like Irvine Welsh myself. Think the original cast are filming Trainspotting 2 as we speak aren't they. I know I've seen a few videos of a few scenes already.

Since he moved States side his books have gone down hill.
Dodgy Bob Posted 27 May 2016 Posted 27 May 2016 Every single book he has written since about 1998 has been described as a "return to form". Decent though.
