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.

The Farm 25 reviews Scott Nicholson
Pinnacle, 2006
Multi-layered Story- Very Good
I really enjoyed my first Nicholson book, The Farm. There was a large cast of characters that were all multi-faceted and well thought out. Nicholoson keeps you guessing for a while on who the Antagonist actually is. I can't wait to read more of his books.

The Book of Air and Shadows 95 reviews Michael Gruber
William Morrow, 2007
Complex and engaging
+ A Book of Substance + Literary thriller trumps Da Vinci Code
I've noticed a wide variety of opinions posted about this book so I felt compelled to weigh in. I found it to be an engrossing tale that weaves together the stories of characters from Elizabethan England and contemporary New York with a terrific command of narrative and suspense.

Ghostwalk 70 reviews Rebecca Stott
Spiegel & Grau, 2007
Breaks new ground
+ Ghostwalk + Similar in feeling to The Thirteenth Tale
This book breaks new ground in the development of novels. It has elements of historical research, a thriller, a love story, a whodunit, a science fiction, and a ghost story, but it is not typical of any established genre. Its wide-ranging content, drawn from many different fields of intellectual ...

Resurrection Dreams 18 reviews Richard Laymon
Leisure Books, 2005
Exactly what you would expect
+ Lock your doors girls, Melvin wants to play doctor...
Let's face it, Richard Laymon was never really the same writer after he died... Resurrection Dreams is one of the multiple books that was published after Laymon's untimely death from a heart attack in 2001. Most of those books, it seems, weren't published when he was alive for a reason: they ...

I had been meaning to read this book for a long time, and I must say that I am glad to have finally read it. There is horror and gore in this book, but the only purpose is not to make you sick. Pat Bateman exists in a society that most of us will never understand. His ability to keep up appearances ...

This is an extremely well-written and forceful book, especially for a first novel. There's nothing remotely tentative about this story of Chicago reporter Camille Preaker's return to her little southeast Missouri hometown to do a story on the murder of two local young girls less than a year apart. ...
