I do have to agree with Outlander--those keep my interest!

Does anyone else find that when an author starts to do series (same character in each book) that the writing becomes stale? Not always, but people like Tess Gerritsen, James Patterson, and even my favourite-James Rollins--I feel that their best work has been done before they got into all their series. Anyone else notice this/agree or am I the only one with this view?

For example: Tess Gerritsen. LOVE Bloodstream, Gravity, and Harvest. Once she began doing the whole Rizzoli and Isles, I pretty much stopped reading her books. (Which is funny, as I like the tv show based on them!)

My favourite are mystery/thrillers--leaning more to adventure thrillers/medical thrillers/spy thrillers. Right now I'm listening to (in the car) The Templar Salvation by Raymond Khoury; and reading The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.
