This is an outing of the series back when I still found it tremendous fun. (Alas, that would not remain so, although once-fans of Sword of Truth widely disagree about when the series jumped the shark, even this novel has its detractors and there are some entertained to the end of the series.) I reme...

This is the 5th Michael Connelly book I've read, and I'm starting to think he's a bit of a genius. I loved the portrayal of the post-earthquake LA, and the resonances I get with the ongoing situation in Christchurch (where 2 1/2 years later there are still ongoing conflicts over red-stickered homes,...

This switched between the characters too much for any real connection to develop for me. I wanted to like it and it was okay but it could have been better. The ending felt rushed and there were too many subplots going on. But it was okay.

So, he expresses his feelings towards the bad guys through the way, in which he has talent i.e. bashing them up. And, thats the reason I like Jack more than Fyodor(not that I have read ...

I want to start off by saying that I didn't hate this book. But I didn't feel like I liked it as much as the first.

This book, written to be contemporary when it was first published, has the feel of film noir, reading this two decades later. Connelly inveigles the reader with his atmospheric treatment of a dark and convoluted tale. The opening tableau, a prolonged and very detailed introduction to the main char...

I have read a few of the Swedish authors in the past, but Faceless Killers is the first I have read by this author. Faceless Killers was on OK read for me. Set in the early 90s, the book is a bit dated when it comes to technology. It's not really exciting and there is no real action. I also thi...

I listened to this while driving to and from North Texas twice - once for Easter and once for my daughter's college graduation. I had extreme difficulty finding a satisfactory volume level for Dick Hill's voice. He had a tendency to whisper breathily in an overdramatic way for character's dialogue...
