Nguyen Phuong (pnnguyen) Hi do you guys have any forensic mysteries novels that you can recomand me to read. Similar to the bone collector.

Hi Nguyen, I've moved your question to a more appropriate place, so people will see it more easily.

I just read Déjà Dead, which is the first of the Temperance Brennan series (and there is the TV show "Bones" too).

And Postmortem was a group read a few months ago: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/6...

I'm sure there are more, so recommend away people!

Forgot about the Body Farm series! Carved in Bone is the first, I think.

Keri (keri_45) | 98 comments Kathryn Fox's series is a forensic type mystery. Also Tim Down's Bugman series, an absolutely fabulous series. Shoofly Pie is the first in the series.

Thanks I check it out

Darcy (drokka) Not at all the same in terms of modern pathology type novels. But if you're interested in a book about a 11-12 year old girl in post-war England with a penchant for solving mysteries based on her love of chemistry (especially poisons), then you might want to give Alan Bradley's Flavia de Luce series a try. The first book is The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie
