Persuader

Something about these Reacher books keeps me coming back.

Persuader (Jack Reacher, No. 7)

Jurassic Park

Good summer fodder.

Jurassic Park: A Novel

More padding than a down pillow. May have been an interesting article, but never should have been a book.

Lost Light

The Rod Carew of Detective fiction. Rarely strikes out and usually makes contact.

Lost Light (Harry Bosch)

Rules of Prey

Book sales are great to fill out what the library doesn’t carry.

Rules of Prey (Lucas Davenport, No. 1)

True Stories of D-day

Good for an overview, but nothing in detail.

True Stories of D-day (True Adventure Stories)

Blocky in places, but keeps an even keel overall.

An interesting view from the other side. Pretty unique perspective being in the General Staff.
