[Captain_BluTac]

Desmond by Ulysses Grant Dietz.

Easy reading fluff and a pretty good antidote to the blues I got from reading Mrs Dalloway before it.

Assassins - LaHaye/Jenkins

Matt Helm, Death Of A Citizen - Donald Hamilton.

Kept hearing how good the Matt Helm series is, how it's an American Bond and all that. Spotted a bunch of the books in a used book store last week so I got the first sequential 16. So far the first book was good. It's written in the first person though which I usually hate unless your name is Raymond Chandler or Mickey Spillane. It's a good book though, I'll read the second book "The Wrecking Crew" next.

Kill you twice ~ Chelsea Cain

 

[Victarion]

Blood of Ambrose by James Enge. It feels like fantasy meets the quirkyness of Burton circa the late 80's-early 90's.

 

[hammerhedd11]

Cain by Jose Saramago

 

[DaltonSpidey94]

I Don't Want To Kill You by Dan Wells, great end for a great series

[Wyrminarrd]

"A mighty fortress" by David Weber.

 

[ComicChick]

bout a third of the way through Assassins

 

[ChickenScratch]

"A mighty fortress" by David Weber.

Details. I've always been interested in Weber, but didnt want to jump in full hog because of his long series and Baen books tend to be hit or miss.

The Day of the Locust by Nathanael West

 

[ComicChick]

50 shades freed.

i hate not finishing series but i'm having the hardest time with this one. can't wait for it to be over

 

[TheAQU4M4N]

Choke, actually it's more like a re read because I watched the adaptation starting Sam Rockwell.

Details. I've always been interested in Weber, but didnt want to jump in full hog because of his long series and Baen books tend to be hit or miss.

I´ve been a long time fan of Weber's writing and this series is entertaining though it's pacing could be improved a bit.

If you don't want to start a long series then I'd recommend "Mutineer's moon" which is the first book in a trilogy. I think this was the first book I read by him and it got me hooked.

Phoenix Force #4 - Tigers Of Justice. http://www.mackbolan.com/display.php3?num=444

Yeah, it's an old (1983) Phoenix Force novel and number 4 in the series that's the lowest numberr I have for those. Nuclear plants all over the US are being attacked by terrorists, the government is covering up the incidents but nuclear protests are showing up everywhere mostly led by a group of Japanese decendants of the Hiroshima bombing. The terrorist acts are actually being commited by these same Japs, they go by the name The Tigers Of Justice because they want revenge on the US and are using ninja skills acheive their goal. They don't know though that their benefactor is not an unhappy American environmentalist, but a KGB sleeper agent using the ninjas to help destroy the US nuclear program.

You get all the action and shoot 'em ups you expect from the Mack Bolan/Excecutioner series ... since Phoenix Force is a spin off of his series. Damn good action novel.

Bonus. The ninjas steal a small plane and use it to crash into a nuclear facility because they could not infiltrate it any other way. This is back in 83!
