The Black Angel: A Thriller (Charlie Parker Mysteries)36 reviews
John Connolly

Pocket Star, 2006

Are All Fallen Angels Damned?
I thoroughly enjoyed BLACK ANGEL, John Connolly's fifth novel featuring the brooding private investigator Charlie Parker (EVERY DEAD THING, DARK HOLLOW, The KILLING KIND, The WHITE ROAD being the previous four). BLACK ANGEL begins with Parker helping his friend--and sometime enforcer--Louis to find his missing cousin Alice, a drug addict and prostitute who worked the Bronx's notorious Hunt's ... 		  
  







  
  
The Book of Lost Things: A Novel102 reviews
John Connolly

Washington Square Press, 2007

Brings Back The Magic
This was the first John Connolly book I read, and I absolutely adored it. It was magical and brings back elements of childhood that strike a universal chord. The twisting of fairy tales brought an edge of humour to what could have been otherwise depressing book. I started off the New Year reading this book, and I thought it was a great way to usher in a new year, with a great new book. It ... 		  
  







  
  
The Unquiet: A Thriller32 reviews
John Connolly

Pocket Star, 2008

A journey into the darkness of man's soul!
John Connolly is one of the nicest men you could meet. He's small in statue, much like a jockey, but with a large, friendly smile, the Irish sense of humor, and a vast knowledge of authors and books. In fact, he turned me onto the great Texas writer, Joe R. Lansdale. That alone puts me forever into John's debt. Still, after meeting him, you can help but wonder how such a wonderful person ... 		  
  







  
  
Every Dead Thing132 reviews
John Connolly

Pocket, 2000

Wow. Impressive Writing.
I purchased and read Connolly's The Book of Lost Things first, and though I had rather high expectations for his debut novel, despite the difference in genre, I was not at all disappointed. While the mystery was not impossible to figure out, the tension and suspense remained throughout the novel, so that I was curious to see how it all played out. The book (obviously) was vastly different, but ... 		  
  







  
  
Bad Men: A Thriller40 reviews
John Connolly

Pocket, 2005

The Bad Men are Pure Evil
This is a top notch book if you like thrillers. The bad guys were pure evil and richly developed characters. This was my first Connolly book and it lead me to read the entire Charlie Parker series which were also very enjoyable.

John Connolly

Pocket, 2002

Great sequel to EVERY DEAD THING
DARK HOLLOW is the sequel to John Connolly's debut novel, EVERY DEAD THING. Like the latter book, HOLLOW stars former NYPD detective Charlie Parker, a recovering alcoholic whose wife and daughter were horrifically murdered while Parker was drunk in a bar; HOLLOW is set roughly a year from when those murders took place. Parker has moved back to Maine, where he spent much of his adolescence, and ...

Nocturnes, and some preludes ...
This is a wonderful collection of short stories and two novellas. I was unfamiliar with Connolly's work before someone recommended this collection, and I'm glad I picked it up. This is horror in the British mold, which means it relies far less on the gross-out details and more on mood and setting. Some of the stories are a little predictable but the narratorial voice (many are written in the ... 		  
  







  
  
The Reapers: A Thriller13 reviews
John Connolly

Atria, 2008

Connolly Raises The Bar!
John Connolly is a most gifted writer and wordsmith. His Charlie Parker novels constitute one of the finest thriller series in existence today. His prose is sometimes so lyrical and so defining that I find myself rereading a sentence or paragraph just to marvel at his styling. He can establish mood, a sense of disquiet, peril, or supernatural unease with a few well turned phrases. His ... 		  
  







  
  
The White Road31 reviews
John Connolly

Hodder Paperback, 2003

Connolly strikes a wonderful balance here
with characterizations. In this novel, the fourth in the Charlie "Bird" Parker series, the reader gets to find out much more about Louis and Angel than has ever been revealed before. Prior to this novel, what the reader knew about the relationship between the two men and Parker was that Parker had basically saved Angel's life while he (Angel) was in prison and that because of all that ... 		  
  







  
  
The Killing Kind39 reviews
John Connolly

Atria, 2002

Connolly Reclaims The Magic!
I enjoyed this one as much as Every Dead Thing and The Book of Lost Things. There were some very powerfully graphic scenes that offered the most suspense in this Charlie Parker series. What made my copy even more exciting was that it turned out to be an autographed copy! Since spiders do completely frighten me, this book certainly had its moments of giving me that creeping feeling and ...

America's Top Doctors 5th Edition1 review
John Connolly, Jean Morgan

Castle Connolly Medical, 2005

The New York Times liked this book
On March 13, 2001 the Science section of the New York Times published a short review of this book. It describes how the entries for the various medical specialties were selected. "For those willing to travel to find the best physician for everything, this guide serves well." Not many of this can afford this, but the book should have a small but grateful audience.
