Thrillers
Review:An unbelievably good book, I started reading it only because Grisham recommended it. But the twists and turns and surprises are real and make for a book difficult to put down. Pick it up and read it immediately! Read more

Schaffer. omg so well done. should be made itno a movie. well. buy it and LOVE IT as I did. Read more
Review:This IS a Jake Grafton novel (well... sorta).
This is way better than Deep Black, which is NOT a Jake Grafton novel and which was co-written with Jim DeFelice. I finished this book, and it's predecessor, Liars & Thieves, which is more than I can say for Deep Black (which is now rat food in a landfill).
Tommy Carmellini is a likeable sort of guy, and he's adept enough at what he does. Grafton makes enough of an appearance to actually play a role, and his wife, Callie, has more t... Read more
Review:Dale Brown does it again !!!!! The McClanahan's take on Russia and make their mark, again. But the cost of what is the right thing is demonstrated in the cost to family McClanahan.... a worth reading book !!!! Read more
Review:This book will give the reader/listener insight into the character that is helpful if you read the Jake Grafton series. A lot of things come together when you understand the characters point of reference. Read more
Review:Stephen Coonts seems to have a crystal ball on his desk that provides him with the material for whatever subject he chooses to visit in his most recent novel. Of course, Coonts is not a fortune teller; he is simply possessed of the ability to believe that which he sees in front of him, analyze it and extrapolate. Indeed, it is in much the same manner that his long-running Jake Grafton character functions. Call it an informed guess, but the result is edge-of-the-seat, page-turning reality present... Read more
Review:Originally posted on Tales to Tide You Over
The Word Exchange is a very odd book, but ultimately that works in its favor. It is an amazingly complex, difficult book that serves as both a warning and a sour vision of where we could be headed. A summary teaser would go something like this: What if there was a global health crisis, but unlike the usual heart, lungs, etc. what if it targets words?
That sounds like a thriller, and there are certainly aspects of thriller. If it also soun... Read more
Review:Really really good read if our Soldier's could treat the scum like they should be around the World without the blasted politicians and the Liberal Press getting in the way it would be a MUCH better World to live in for All of Us Read more
Review:It’s a Sunday night. You’re getting ready to take a relaxing bath with a beautiful woman when the phone rings. It’s your best friend, a police lieutenant, and he wants you to come over and help him assess a murder case. You arrive at an upscale house, and encounter a body in the study. The face has been blown clean off with a shotgun, and the hands have been chopped off and taken away. The homeowners, just back from having dinner out, have no idea who it is, or how he got there. But then, ... Read more
Review:Buchan pioneered the thriller genre. These Hannay stories are brilliantly executed and surprisingly relevant: the ferment of terrorism in the early decades of the 1900s foreshadows our own time and gives the reader opportunity to ponder human nature. I read these stories out loud to my entire family. Read more
