There are no long histories, family trees or endless descriptions of culture, landscapes and back-story. This is just a ...

Next

The last work of Michael Crichton. He has a kind of arrogant attitude towards his readers, but I generally agree with him.

Excellent Modern-Day Crucible

+ Jodi Picoult Does It Again
+ A Touch of Witchery

When I sat down to read Salem Falls, I wasn't really sure what to expect because I hadn't read many of Ms. Picoult's other works up to that point.

James Patterson, 2001

Ist to Die

+ Start of new women-led murder series

This is the first in the Women's Murder Club series and it is the first James Patterson book I've read. He is a popular and prolific writer, and this thriller doesn't disappoint. It may not be great literature, but it is easy reading with very short chapters and it keeps the reader's interest to ...
