Ten great Parliamentary page-turners

At the Waterstones blog Mark Skinner tagged ten of the best British political novels. One title on the list:
House of Cards
Michael Dobbs

The eternally scheming, marvellously Machiavellian Chief Whip Francis Urquhart plots a course to Number Ten in Michael Dobbs’ scabrous assault on vaunting political ambition.
Read about another title on the list.

House of Cards is among Peter Stone's twelve essential political scandal thrillers, Jeff Somers's ten best political thrillers, and Terry Stiastny’s ten top books about Westminster politics.
