The Judas Strain: A Novel111 reviews James Rollins William Morrow, 2007 Great book As usual, Rollins delevers a book full of action and thrills. The masterpiece that I have come to expect from his every release. A must read!!!!!!!!             The Terror: A Novel223 reviews Dan Simmons Little, Brown and Company, 2007 an all-time favorite + Pretty good. + Fantastic story, and much of it true The funny part about this, is that I hesitated buying the book. The only book I had read from Dan Simmons was Darwin's blade, and I didnt like it at all. But after reading a positive review in USA Today I thought I'd give him another shot. Am I ever glad I did! Quite simply, maybe the best book ...             Haunted: A Novel103 reviews Chuck Palahniuk Anchor, 2006 wow I thought that this book was entertaining, novel, and well written. It tells a frame story beautifully, although beautiful is not really the right word at all. Not only was it thought provoking, but it provoked a strong reaction in general, a trait that is losing strength in literature today. ...             The Nymphos of Rocky Flats: A Novel43 reviews Mario Acevedo Eos, 2006 Meh There was something about this book, or maybe the way the main character was written, that just did not agree with me. As a lover of noir fiction, horror fiction, vamp fiction, and practically any mix of those, I just did not feel like this one added up. Felix is a weak and unbelievable character, ...             You Suck: A Love Story132 reviews Christopher Moore Harper Paperbacks, 2008 Nosferattitude + Undead need a good laugh, too You Suck is the sequel to The Author Guy's foray into humorous, bizarro vamp-lit, and it's just as zany and enjoyable as its predecessor, Bloodsucking Fiends. I won't go too much into the story except to say that C. Thomas Flood is now forced to accept his newly acquired pale force, a first ...             The Host: A Novel684 reviews Stephenie Meyer Little, Brown and Company, 2008 Beautiful Host + Suspense, love, and betrayal... + Interspecies Stockholm Syndrome No vampires appear in Meyer's latest novel, instead an alien species invades our planet and eventually the bodies of the human population. In the end most of these host lose their personality but not all. Such is the case of the young human female Melanie. She fights to keep her own identity in ...             Broken Angels82 reviews Richard K. Morgan Del Rey, 2004 A great followup to Morgan's Altered Carbon debut! + Good book + Broken Angels by Richard K. Morgan: A Review + Reminiscent of Gibson's sprawl series. + Not Free SF Reader             Black Magic Woman (Quincy Morris Supernatural Investigation)30 reviews Justin Gustainis Solaris, 2008 Awesome New Urban Fantasy Series + Good start to series + Super Reader This story completely sucked me in and captivated me all the way through. I was completely immersed in the world that Mr. Gustainis has created here. Quincey Morris and Libby Chastain play off each other well and are great protagonists. The plot, pacing, danger, supernatural elements and story ...             Daughter Of Hounds19 reviews Caitlin R. Kiernan Roc Trade, 2007 Moving Adventure + another strange one by Keirnan + Words on fire + A book that reads like a freight train             Bloodline: A Repairman Jack Novel (Repairman Jack)37 reviews F. Paul Wilson Forge Books, 2007 One of the best in the series... + Solid Repairman Jack Novel + Series Just Keeps Getting Better Wilson is still going strong in his latest Repairman Jack book. If you like supernatural thrillers, like the X-files, you will love Repairman Jack. Not quite as much action as some of Wilsons other books, but the story more than makes up for this. It is a very hard book to put down.             20th Century Ghosts45 reviews Joe Hill William Morrow, 2007 Genetics? + 20th Centry Ghosts Joe Hill + Also a great audiobook The last story in this collection, called "Voluntary Committal", is of the kind that I never get tired of - alternate universes juxtaposed with the normal harsh realities of everyday. Redemption and loss possible in every paragraph. If this story appeared in a Stephen King collection I would only ...             Blood Noir (Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter, Book 16)294 reviews Laurell K. Hamilton Berkley Hardcover, 2008 The stories have changed, but they're not bad! + love it Ok, so I've read EVERY single book that LKH has written. Yes, her stories have changed to become a lot more about sex (a little ironic especially for the Anita Blake series since Anita started off as Ms. Chastity Belt). Still, it doesn't make the stories bad. That being said, I like romance ...             Your Heart Belongs to Me Dean Koontz Bantam, 2008 From the #1 New York Times bestselling master of suspense comes a riveting thriller that probes the deepest terrors of the human psyche—and the ineffable mystery of what truly makes us who we are. Here a brilliant young man finds himself fighting for his very existence in a battle that starts with the most frightening words of all… At thirty-four, Internet entrepreneur Ryan Perry ...             2012: The War for Souls89 reviews Whitley Strieber Tor Books, 2007 Good start......horrible end This book started off well. The action flew and the characters were interesting. Then it started to become tedious and fall apart. I think somewhere along the line the author forgot he was telling a story and started believing he was living this and reporting it. Anyways the last 1/3 of the book ...             Firefly Rain (Discoveries)11 reviews Richard Dansky Wizards of the Coast Discoveries, 2008 Rural NC at its finest + Good Old Fashioned Ghost Story! + Haunting I think my favorite parts were the descriptions of the small town, Maryfield, and the people in it. Dansky really captures rural North Carolina in flux between encroaching technology and homogenization with its traditional (and quirky) community roots. The narrator is caught somewhere in between, ...             The Reincarnationist66 reviews M. J. Rose Mira, 2007 Great page-turning fun! + Great story, not finished I enjoyed this book and was really drawn in by the evocative descriptions of settings, both modern and historical. You really get the feeling of being there in the story, standing by the characters, seeing, smelling and hearing what they do. And the story had several twists I wasn't expecting at ...             Night Witch30 reviews Jack Priest Bootleg Press, 2003 A Thrilling and Very Enjoyable Experience + Read the back cover first to get the proper context for what's going to happen... + A Priest of Horror + Spine Chilling Good             The Traveler (Fourth Realm Trilogy, Book 1)270 reviews John Twelve Hawks Doubleday, 2005 Great Book! + Three Hawks short of a 5 star! + Through the Lens of the Security Camera I loved this book. It was a real page turner. Just think, you could leave your body and travel through other realms. Live off the grid. What a peaceful life that would be. Great adventure!             Thirteen76 reviews Richard K. Morgan Del Rey, 2007 Show me, don't tell me Very exciting premise here - in the not so distant future America has split along conservative and liberal lines into 2 separate countries and genetic experimentation has created a race of "super men" called 13's (genetic variation #13) who have either been locked up or exiled to the Mars colony. ...             The Dangerous Days of Daniel X77 reviews James Patterson Little, Brown and Company, 2008 Daniel X I found Daniel to me an exciting and page turning book. Very enjoyable and well worth it.
