I finished Clone Hunter by Victor Methos, excellent, excellent book. 4 1/2 Pirate Flags out of 5. Hoping there will be a follow up. Deep into Under Foot (Outside Context Problem) by Christopher Nuttall, the 2nd book in the series. I’m finding it a bit better than the first, where the United States is under […]

Finally finished Outside Context Problem, a very long book, 543 pages. As I wrote last week “It’s not the greatest writing style (not that I could do better), a bit sophomoric, but the overall concept is excellent, as are the characters, the plot, and the buildup.” An invasion from aliens, the United States has gone […]

Well, let’s see now. I never did start on Darkest Hour (The Lockman Chronicles #3), but I will eventually read it. Instead, I went with A Line In The Sand by Justin Burgess, and excellent book about what happens if the US turns against the military, treating military members and veterans with a complete lack […]

Finished Silas: A Supernatural Thriller which I started last Sunday. If you’ve read any of these “Watcha Reading?” posts, you know they are more about “what I am reading” and “what are you reading” than about reviews. Let see about Silas, though, that this was a pure 5 star book. I really, really, really enjoyed […]

It was kind of a tough week. I tried a multitude of books before finally settling on one and finishing it. EndRun started out so so, I might go back to it. Doubtful. Does seem to have a possible interesting Mars aspect, but if I restart, something better happen quickly. Monsters looked interesting, started in […]

Let’s see: finished the 3rd book of the Day Soldiers trilogy. Excellent, excellent series, and I’m not usually that big on werewolves and vampires. I’d give the series a 4.5 out of 5. Took on The Mighty Quinn. It was a so so read, but kept my attention all the way through. Gave Dawn Of […]

Finally finished The Twelve early in the week. Whew! Long book. Started on A Not So Singular World. Excellent premise, but the writing was so so (still more than I could have come up with, have to admit), couldn’t hold my attention past 25%. And there was no way I’d read just the 1st and […]

Nothing I mentioned last week was interesting enough to continue reading, so, I ended up heading off to the library to borrow The Twelve by Justin Cronin, his follow up to The Passage. It was one of those expensive E-books that I refused to pay for, and, quite frankly, I’m glad. While it has held […]

Since last Sunday I’ve finished The Last Roman (The Praetorian Series: Book I) by Edward Crichton as well as the 2nd in the series, To Crown a Caesar (The Praetorian Series: Book II). Eagerly awaiting book 3, which is not due till near the end of 2013. Sigh. At time of writing this post, I’m […]

Finished The Greatest Domestic Threat, was actually a damned good book, but the ending left you hanging just a tiny bit. Made it most of the way through Zombie Bay (Death On The Beach), but just couldn’t finish it. Truly bogged down and became boring. Also gave How To Save The World: An Alien Comedy […]
