Intriguing
The characters interwining stories along with the secrets of the Havana Room makes this a compelling read. I throughly enjoyed it.
The Finder: A Novel
Colin Harrison
Farrar, Straus and Giroux
, 2008
Brutally intelligent....
This book is not for the squeamish. There is so much going on that you wonder how Harrison keeps it all together, and keeps it all believable. But he does! It is a fascinating look into the different sub-cultures in New York and how closely they can be related, ...
Bodies Electric
Colin Harrison
Crown
, 1993
Again, Harrison has fulfilled my life for 2 more days.
Fantastic! That's what I could only say to you guys without any chronicle backpains. I suffered a badback again last week and had to lie down in bed for 4 days. "Bodies Electric" had lightened my painful suffering for two days and enlightened me in the meantime. When ...
Break and Enter: A Novel

St. Martin's Paperbacks

Stunned by the author's mastery
As I listened to Harrison's book on tape, I was stunned by his mastery. His thorough and painfully honest examination of the protagonist, his almost sadistic ability to continue suspense and increase tension, his beautiful prose style -- all of these make me admire ...

An engrossing and informative volume for laymen or experts
This volume is the best one I've found on prehistoric creatures. Having always been fascinated by them, I wanted as an adult to find something to broaden the base I'd built as a kid obsessed with Tyrannosaurus and trilobites. Though I'm far from a paleontologist or ...

Afterburn: A Novel
Colin Harrison
Picador
, 2007
Dark, controlled fiction at it's best
Unbelievably good. The tale describes three main characters in late 90's NYC, all exceedingly likable and flawed, then places them in such excruciating situations that I had to put the book down several times, only to grab it back up greedily five minutes later. Every ...

Wiley

Great book!
This is a great book! It is a super introduction to agent technology. There is so much hype about agents around -- this book provides a coherent taxonomy of agent technologies and really explains what agents can and cannot do. Other books I've read on agent ...
