Geelong Times Rave Review
Read the Geelong Times interview with Peter Klein where reviewer Simon Townley says, "Punter bounces along with pace and colour that make Dick Francis novels seem pedestrian. Perhaps it's because he allows him to be quintissentially Australian."

New SILK CHASER review
Mysteries in Paradise says, "This is #3 of Klein's Punter series, and I'm hooked. SILK CHASER is the best so far.However, if you haven't read either of the others in the series, PUNTER'S LUCK and PUNTER'S TURF, then this is a series where you really should take advantage of the chance to begin on the ground floor. Peter Klein has avoided overloading each novel with back-story, and while there is just enough to help the reader understand what has gone before, reading the series in order will show you character and plot development."

Weekly Times declares SILK CHASER "a winner"
The Weekly Times gives SILK CHASER a great review.
"As a piece of thriller fiction, it is excellent," writes Christopher Bantick. "Not only does Klein know his stuff, but he will have you on the edge of your seat if not the saddle - back this - it's a winner."
