The Dummy Line A Novel
The author brilliantly uses a fairly simple plot to weave a tension filled thriller. You won't find any complex government plots, improbable escapes or conspiracies. Instead we get a well written story …

The Ark: A Novel
This is an excellent action thriller that has a "grab you" beginning where an archeologist has located the legendary "Ark" and lays dying before he can actually see it. With his last …

Nine Dragons
   After disappointing Harry Bosch tales (The Overlook, The Brass Dragon) Connelly has brought back the Harry that hooked me in the earlier tales.  Harry is still back in homicide (no closer …

The Girl Who Played With Fire (book)
This book is one of the better sequel books I have read in a long time! It doesn't miss a beat picking up almost where the first book finished off. In this book Mikhael Blomkvist and Lisbeth Salander …

This is the third Brown book I have read (Deception Point & Da Vinci Code are the prior books). Brown has an uncanny ability in all his books to bring the reader in at the beginning and put you on …

Crisis
I really enjoyed this book and as I was getting closer to the end I realized that there was not enough book left to tie up the loose ends. What happens, the author ends the book abruptly with tons of …

The Book of the Dead
This book starts off slow till about the middle and then steamrolls to the end. Fans that read the prior books will not be disappointed. Newcomers to the series should read at least the prior book (Game …

Prey
Crichton does an excellent job of writing a heart-pounding high tech thriller! This is a story of nano-technology gone out of control. Those familiar with Ben Bova's tales (Venus, The Asteroid War series, …
