What to expect
In REBUS'S SCOTLAND Ian Rankin uncovers the Scotland that the tourist never sees, highlighting the places that inspired the settings for the Inspector Rebus novels. Rankin also reveals the story of Rebus and how he came into being, who he is, and what his - and Rankin's - Scotland is like. With 75 evocative photographs, specially commissioned to reflect the text, REBUS'S SCOTLAND is the perfect gift for anyone interested in Scotland or in the novels of Ian Rankin.
Read by Ian Rankin, with extracts read by James Macpherson

Critics Review
-
Rankin is a phenomenon. He has made Edinburgh an imaginary or rather fully imagined city as nobody, except Spark, has done since Stevenson
SPECTATOR -
Absorbing analysis … Rankin blends autobiography, cultural analysis and the process of creative writing into a pure malt
OBSERVER -
A must-have for all Rebus fans as the writer, revisiting the rural Scotland of his upbringing, reveals the genesis of his characters
DAILY EXPRESS -
Rebus’s Scotland is interesting, particularly for fans of the novels, and nicely produced … Rankin is such a perceptive observer
IRISH TIMES -
Rankin’s Rebus novels should be required reading for anyone whose knowledge of Edinburgh has been derived from visits to the Festival
