Didn't meet my expectation -- I was expecting heavy investigation related to Body Farm. But the first part was boring, in addition there was drama (the father-son relationship -- what the hell was that? -- the whole younger female students infatuation) that I thought was off-putting. Not interested ...
I love this series, co-written by the forensic anthropology professor at the University of Tennessee who started The Body Farm. He must be an excellent teacher, as his books manage to take a topic that can be very dry and boring and weaves it into a compelling, thrilling and enjoyable read.
This is the first novel in Jefferson Bass' Body Farm series and bodies is something that they are never short of: The Body Farm is a place of science where forensic anthropologist observe how bodies decompose in different situations as well as determine what might have been cause of death or what ...
As with the Alex Delaware series, I enjoyed this book more for the supporting cast (Waylon and Big Jim) than I did for the main character, Bill (whose name I forgot and had to look up right now).

I wanted to like this so bad. It was a Free Friday book on my Nook ages ago and it looked interesting. But the extremely wordy descriptions of EVERYTHING killed it for me. I understand that it's because the book is about a forensic anthropologist and the book is written by the people who essentially...
Carved in Bone was a slightly enjoyable read. It got started slow, then picked up and got interesting, then died off a little again. Finally the end just all happened at once - all but maybe one or two issues/sub-plots unraveled within the same chapter or two.Several times I felt like the level of f...
This is the first in a now established series by the writing team of Bill Bass, a real forensic professor at the University of Tennessee, and Jon Jefferson, a writer and reported. You can definitely tell this is a first effort. I found some of the humor and dialog to be a little immature and clunky ...
