Sail
James Patterson, Howard Roughan

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

The Patterson name must be a stamp.
James Patterson has written some memorable thrillers but Sail seems to be written by a ghost writer who is new (or tired) of the genre and pushed to this book on the masses using the Patterson label. Don't get me wrong, this is a quick and easy read, but the characters ...
  
  











  



  
The Spies of Warsaw: A Novel
Alan Furst

Random House, 2008

Furst is First
Furst is the best writer of thrillers in the business and The Spies of Warsaw is first-rate Furst. All of his novels are historically accurate, not only in the major events that actually occurred but in the ambiance of the setting and the psychological outlook of his ...
  
  











  



  
Nothing to Lose (Jack Reacher Novels)
Lee Child

Delacorte Press, 2008

I read it, and I liked it
I am surprised at the number of negative reviews on the 12th Jack Reacher novel by Lee Child. I enjoyed the book and as most Reacher fans look forward to the next in the series.

SAS Survival Handbook: How to Survive in the Wild, in Any Climate, on Land or at Sea
John Lofty Wiseman

Collins, 2004

Long book, short review.
I dont wanna write a book explaining this thing, but, even if youre just a part time backpacker, hiker or camper, this is a book you want to invest in. Lots of good information on lots of areas in the world. There is some stuff in here that should be common knowledge, ...
  
  











  



  
The Whole Truth
David Baldacci

Grand Central Publishing, 2008

Another great read from Baldacci
As usual David Baldacci does an excellent job of character development and making the plot understandable. Even though you know the good guys are going to come out ahead, there are enough twists and turns in the story to make some part of your brain doubt that and make ...
  
  











  



  
Magic Tree House #39: Dark Day in the Deep Sea (A Stepping Stone Book(TM))
Mary Pope Osborne

Random House Books for Young Readers, 2008

Great kids' adventure series
OK, I'm not reviewing this for myself, although I do enjoy the concept and the stories, but for my (nearly) six year old grandson. He simply adores this series by Mary Pope Osborne...except...at the start of each adventure, when the tree house moves and then ...
  
  











  



  
7th Heaven (The Women's Murder Club)
James Patterson, Maxine Paetro

Little, Brown and Company, 2008

Loved 5th, missed 6th, loved 7th
I have become a huge Patterson after reading the 5th Horseman, lapsed on the 6th Target and found my way back for 7th Heaven. I just love the play on numbers. This is the 7th novel in his Women's Murder Club series and the book starts off in as far a place from heaven ...
  
  











  



  
The Sea of Monsters (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 2)
Rick Riordan

Miramax, 2007

Great Book
This is another great book in the Percy Jackson series. My daughter and I have loved every one of them. She's 11 and I'm 43
  
  











  



  
Turbulent Sea (Drake Sisters, Book 6)
Christine Feehan

Jove, 2008

Turbulent Sea
As a Chritine Feehan fan, I guess I am a little biased. Loved the book, loved all the characters and the story was great. Whilst I tend to love the Dark Series the best, the story of the seven sisters and their partners is a enjoyable read, the men are always "hot" ...
  
  











  



  
The Last Jihad (Political Thrillers Series #1)
Joel C. Rosenberg

Tyndale House Publishers, 2006

Thrilling, scary!
This book was thrilling, scary, and almost phrophetic when it was written. I could hardly put it down, then read the rest of the series a quickly as I could! READ THESE!
  
  











  



  
Transfer of Power
Vince Flynn

Pocket Star, 2000

GREAT READ
This is a real stay up late can't put down book. Don't miss it and don't think it can't happen here.
  
  











  



  
Empires of the Sea: The Siege of Malta, the Battle of Lepanto, and the Contest for the Center of the World
Roger Crowley

Random House, 2008

Grippingly written
I was not at all familiar with Mediterrean conflicts or politics during this period when I started this book. But "Empires of the Sea" is so well written in moving the story along and portraying the conflicts, that I really found it very gripping. I greatly enjoyed ...
  
  











  



  
Sea of Poppies: A Novel
Amitav Ghosh

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2008

a magnificent historical epic
When the former slaving ship, the Ibis, sails off from America to India, Zachary Reid enlists as a ship's carpenter to escape his American fate as a son of a freed slave girl and her master. Little does he know, how much his life will actually be transformed by this ...
  
  











  



  
Gift from the Sea: 50th Anniversary Edition
Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Pantheon, 1991

A Joy Forever
What more can be said about this lovely collection of thoughts? Even as it celebrates its 50th anniversary, it is as fresh as the day it was penned. This book is a keeper if ever there was one, a volume to be read and re-read and handed down to one's children, which is ...
