I can't put down The Neon Rain. I've been very lucky lately with the books I've been reading.

I passed over it in he morning then after seeing you say you not only bought it but would read it immediately I went back and bought it. Glad you find it so good

[Magiccats]

Wow! Me too. What a very good review. This is the type of action thriller I enjoy reading. Along with Jeremy Robinson, Jon Land, David Morrell, James Rollins, and Michael Stephen Fuchs.

I've hit a dry spell. I read several good books and then burned through a pile of books from the library and suddenly nothing appeals. I can't seem to get into anything. I read (reread) most of an old Louis L'Amour western I'd liked years ago last night (The Daybreakers).

Happens now and then I guess.

This has been on my TBR for 2 years. Don't know why I haven't read it yet.

That happens to me too. As I get older I get harder to satisfy (literary speaking)

Maybe it's the time of year. I've ended up with so many DNF's with both Kindle downloads and library books I'm getting really annoyed and have gone back to re-reads as well.

I just finished ... it was a very good series and I hope the author has more ideas in his head because there was just enough threads there to maybe continue the story. I can hope.

I finished The Neon Rain today and gave it 5 stars. A fast moving thriller set in Louisiana.

Let me know what you think, after you finish.

That's how I felt last month. I too, reread some books and they lifted my "spirits"

Nothing I read really, "wet my whistle" ......

Totally agree Tim. I need to finish that series.

[Eileen]

I'm up to book 5 of the Harry Dresden series. Thanks for reminding me, I have to get back to this series.

Of the books I have read in the series (I am book 10), book 7 was my favorite by far.

[Mike (the Paladin)]

I'm still waiting for the next one....

It's like these authors think they should have lives or something.

Hooked on Dresden too but moved on to Ghost Story

[David]

Reading (on my 1st Gen Kindle Fire, as my Oct KOLL) the 3rd novella ( in the 3-novella collection of Team Ogmios stories: .

Just started another Bond (007) thriller by Raymond Benson that I picked up for only $0.99: . At that price I HAD to buy it.....

[Jim]

I just finished The Last Child by John Hart. Wow! My review is here:

Jim I will tbr this simply by you saying wow! You tend to be quite reliable and honest with book assessment

I was torn between reading Ghost Story next or The Ghosts of Belfast. I went with Ghosts of Belfast simply because it's been on my tbr for eternity.

Be sure and read Burke's latest.
It's fantastic!

[Jim]

I'm still reading Light of the World and just started A Foreign Country--finally. It's more of a traditional espionage setup, but I like that. I think it goes along with Philip Kerr and Olen Steinhauer.

I agree Mike. Didn't they sign that away with their first book.

That's good to hear Tim. I need to start these again.

[Travis]

OK honestly it is safe to add any book to the tbr that any member of this group gives a good rating to. One reason I sometimes avoid this post. And so far about 25% in I'm enjoying Ghost Story as well although I feel like I have been given enough pieces to startfiguring out what the whole deal is yet still remain in the dark with it all. Its like having something on the tip of your tounge but never able to figure out what to say

That's good to hear, Travis! I couldn't agree more!

[Julia]

I stole a few Daniel Silva books off a friends shelf (well, she shouldn't have invited us for dinner if she didn't want to lend her books out :). I'll be working through those for a while.

Well said, Travis. I found the book to be a slow burn but never slow....if you know what I mean. There was always just enough hints to keep me intrigued and interested.

[Mike (the Paladin)]

I liked it. I read it some years ago and again recently and thought it held up well.

Jon Land...wow! Been a long time since I read a "Blainey" novel. Really good as I recall. I vividly remember the Mouse Kingdom being trashed in one epic battle.

[The Pirate Ghost, Long John Silvers Wanna-be]

I've finished Icarus Rising by Dominic Carney and decided to make a halloween special re-read (audiobook) of

Monster Hunter International by Larry Correia.

It's just as fun the second time through!

Wish there would be another one soon!

It's coming out in 2014.


I got a recommendation of Pagan by Andrew Chapman as bing like MHI but with steamier sex scenes ...

I tried not to leave skidmarks getting the Amazon store...

I'm going to give that a shot (99 cents on the kindle, it's got a lot of good reviews so... what's to loose? A buck?

[Sharon]

I. Curmudgeon wrote: "

Downloaded a sample. I'm not a big fan of vampires in general and I'm okay with 'steamy sex' but not 'sleazy, steamy sex' (which is probably a pretty personal definition) but sounds like it's worth a try anyway.

[The Pirate Ghost, Long John Silvers Wanna-be]

Yeah, for 99 cents and a half an hour test time...that's not much to loose for me. When I finish MHI I'll fire up the Kindle for it.

I "say" the same thing, but, being a Dirty Ol' Sailor (retired...of course), i'm okay with sleazy... I just draw the line at raunchy... but that's probably a pretty personal definitoin too). :)

Well, being married to a DOS I'm not sure 'retired' really applies in that particular category ...

On the other hand, it might be interesting to make comparisons in the definitions for "steamy" ... "sleazy/steamy" ... "raunchy/steamy" categories.

Then again, having listened to a few of my personal DOS's stories, maybe not!
