Echo Burning
Lee Child
Jove, 2002
Child at his best
+ Echo Burning Review
+ one of the best Reacher novels, intense climax
This one starts slowly, leading up to a firecracker of an ending, typical of Lee Child novels. Jack Reacher, the ex army police officer turned freelance lawman who never hesitates to stick his nose into private business, takes his lively act to Texas, embroiling himself in what starts as a messy ...

Intensity
Dean Koontz
Bantam, 2000
Top Notch
+ Classic extreme horror brought to life
False Memory WAS my top Koontz book but Intensity takes the cake. There are twists and turns during the whole book and no fluff at all. It keeps you guessing up until the very end!
It's a must add to your list!

Iceberg (Dirk Pitt Adventure)
Clive Cussler
Berkley, 2004
Excellent Book
+ Incredible Book: Dirk Pitt is a model for "real men"
Nobody writes em like Clive Cussler...sort of like James Bond meets Jacque Cousteau. Excellent book for history and science lovers...and there is always a twist...can you spot Clive Cussler's character in the book? I love that part...he always inserts himself into his work. I know of no other ...

Along Came a Spider (Alex Cross)
James Patterson
Grand Central Publishing, 2003
Along Came a Spider
+ Patterson At His Best
+ Good Read
This suspense thriller was read by 2 great readers. It was listened to while in my car and it was hard to turn it off when arriving at my destination. This was my first book on tape by James Patterson and I hope that others by this author will be read as superbly.

Global terror and the FBI

The Lions of Lucerne
Brad Thor
Pocket Books, 2002
Clever
+ Relentless Thriller
+ Bold & Believable
Do not pass this book up.
I do agree with another reviewer that the protagonist is somewhat too good to be true. It is easy to get past that. The plot is clever, and the villains were well developed. The action is great. I can't wait to read another Thor.
