Jurassic Park
Good summer fodder.

Lost Light
The Rod Carew of Detective fiction. Rarely strikes out and usually makes contact.
A Savage Place
A early, weird and pretty good Spencer.
Term Limits
Just can’t connect with the “Get the President” genre. Managed to finish, more from being stubborn than interested.
Rules of Prey
Book sales are great to fill out what the library doesn’t carry.
Out on the Cutting Edge: A Matthew Scudder Crime Novel
Blocky in places, but keeps an even keel overall.
Adam
Besides ripping off Poltergeist and The Exorcist, this book reeks with pretension. So long, Ted.
Gone Tomorrow
Series getting long in the tooth, but good for filler.
Last to Die
A little jumbled and not that interesting.
The Last Kind Words: A Novel
A more interesting take on the Walton’s.
The Killer Angels
One of the best Civil War novels. With the 150th anniversary coming up, a timely read.
The Killer Angels: A Novel of the Civil War (Modern Library)
Ironhorse
Something unique going on with the RBP legacy – Virgil and Everett take to the rails and the train rolls on.
Paranoia
Some of the tech heavy sections are dull, but who likes to waste research? A decent overall read.
Primal Fear
A decent ride with some good hooks.
Night Vision
Common title for a rather odd series.
The Last Lie
Author is a bit too smug for this middle of the road series.
Tanner On Ice
This series is a little weak, but good for a couple hours of checking out.
Dead Time
Multiple narrators and a so-so plot make this a bit much.
Presumed Innocent
Slogs in places, but no bad overall.
Force of Nature
Author has a winning recipe, but the batter is getting a bit stale.
