 AIGA - Colin Forbes
It may be a violation of confidentiality to say so, but when Colin Forbes was proposed for the AIGA Medal there was very little discussion among the jurors.
If the rest is design history, it is history that Colin Forbes, as the founding partner who chaired the partner's policy meetings for 20 years, had a great deal to do with making and planning.
Forbes saw that market as divided between two kinds of design firms: the traditional offices run by designers, and the offices that were organized—on the Lippincott and Margulies model—very much like advertising agencies, with design and designers subordinate to other disciplines.

Where is the Colin Forbes who wrote The (fantastic) Greek Key, Terminal and The Sisterhood etc? The Greek Key was the first Forbes book I read and have since bought all of his books.
Forbes continually uses the same phrases and terms to introduce them, after 21 books we KNOW that Paula is in her 30's and is Tweed's close assistant, we KNOW that Marler's in his 30's, dresses smartly and leans against the wall of the office etc.....
Colin Forbes' book used to have a certain kitsch value that was amusing to read but this was just appalling.

 BookkooB: The Cell - Colin Forbes
Forbes, at least, is adept at creating a powerful sense of place which makes the locations, if not the characters, seem believable.
Reading 'The Cell' after just finishing the Harry Potter series, I was struck by how much better a writer J K Rowling is. Forbes' dialogue and plotting seems to clunk more than usual.
In places, usually where the wooden dialogue takes a back seat, Forbes succeeds in creating some tense, even gripping, moments.

 Colin Forbes Message Board
Forbes' knowledge of firearms seems to have slipped, he names pistols (always old-fashioned ones) but not longarms.
Forbes should stick to travelogues, he obviously enjoys the travel and that is the one plus in this novel, the descriptions of European towns and cities.
I think it is good to see that Colin Forbes seems to be expandng on the characters lives outside of the SIS plotlines.

It is encouraging to see Forbes displaying his green credentials - he's into recycling in a big way, the plot of every book of his that I've read has been identical give or take a few names and locations.
Colin Forbes' biographical details include the information that he writes a novel every year; what does he do for the other 51 weeks?
As an avid reader of Forbes' previous books I have to admit that I was bitterly disappointed with his latest Tweed & Co novel.

Colin Forbes once again plunges the reader into a headlong battle between Tweed & Co and the enemy (in this case "THE SISTERHOOD".
Along with other books written by Colin Forbes the book is fast moving and enjoyable - although somewhat predictable if you have read any of his other books.
Overall this, like other Forbes' novels is quite a good read and i look forward to reading his next book due out later this year in paperback.

 Colin Forbes: The Stone Leopard   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
The world in which it is set is made even more paranoid than a strictly historical Cold War setting; in Forbes' world, the recession caused by the oil crisis led to Communist coups in Greece, Spain and Portugal, and increased isolationism in the US.
Colin Forbes maintains the suspense to make The Stone Leopard a tense political thriller.
You do get the impression that there is really only going to be one thriller's worth of ideas in the author - but I'll find that out when I read another.

 BookkooB: The Power - Colin Forbes
You may already know the score when it comes to his books; you either loathe them as underdeveloped, badly written low-grade thrillers, or you recognise all those factors and love them despite their (many) flaws.
Yet despite his awful speech and often ridiculously underdeveloped prose, Forbes can still spin a tale of intrigue and drama; his set-piece moments of drama are always tense and exciting.
There is brutal murder, there are assassins, there are femmes fatale, though which is the true danger is always only revealed at the end…and you simply will not guess Forbes before he’s ready to reveal all.

 Colin Forbes Discussion
I think Colin is the best of living British thriller writers.
He combines an unusual perception of international politics, with exciting plots which make him in my view, "the natural successor to Ian Fleming." His work is also to a certain extent unusual and the eccentric characters who crop up in his novels reminds me of the Avengers as much as James Bond.
I want to write myself and Colin is one of authors from whom I have derived inspiration from together with Ian Fleming, Desmond Bagley and the late Alistair Maclean.

Dutch DJ and upcoming producer, Colin Forbes, produced a record which really brings the old fashioned speed-garage bass back to life, which has been played on promo over the last 3 months by all the top club / hardhouse Deejays in the Netherlands.
Currently it is one of DJ Jean´s favorite tracks of this moment, he put this one on high rotation during his weekly Radio 538 radio show “Madhouse”, and it even made the Madhouse “Madsmash” (his weekly favorite track).
If all else fails during your DJ-set, definetely put this one on, it's a sure fire winner!
