I've read it twice; the first release and then the unabridged release which is 400 pages longer. CBS announced this year that it is making a 10 part mini-series of it.

I've just finished "The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket" by Edgar Allan Poe. Described as his only complete novel but it's not complete! The story was going along nicely and then...

If you like archaeology/treasure hunt books, you should enjoy David Gibbins. I recommend reading the books in order as the characters refer to previous adventures in successive books.

I decided to start reading some classic books I thought I should have read. I started with "The Great Gatsby" and I'm struggling to understand why it's so highly regarded. The writing style is...

I don't recall any mention of Desmond Bagley in this thread, am I alone in having read all of his books?

Not having read a Dean Koontz book for years, I started reading "Odd Thomas" last night. I had forgotten what a good writer Koontz is, he really does paint pictures with words.

The author is Tom Harper and the stories are good, it's just the constant shifting from past to present which stops me really getting stuck into the book.

I bought 4 books by an author who was recommended to me but he writes in a style which I believe is known as "timeslip". Alternate chapters are set in different times and at some point, it becomes...

I've just finished reading 10 Harry Bosch novels by Michael Connelly. Sometimes when you read a number of books by the same author back-to-back, they can become stale but I can honestly say the...

I quite enjoyed them, why?

Jo Nesbo (7)
Ken Follett (10)
Scott Mariani (7)
Chris Kuzneski (6)
Will Adams (4)...

I've just finished reading 6 Jo Nesbo books and I loved them all.

Eddie

I've been reading some Jo Nesbo recently: I started with "Headhunters" because of the film and then bought the Harry Hole series. So far I've read "The Redbreast" and now I'm more than half-way...

I started reading Ken Follett's "Code to Zero" last night, it's looking good.

I've just abandoned The Book of the New Sun Volume I:Shadow and Claw by Gene Wolfe after sticking with it for 430 pages. The occasional few pages showing promise but mostly unreadable and this is a...

I know it's already been mentioned in this thread but I'm currently 100 pages into "Hyperion" by Dan Simmons. It was included in a Gollancz collection I bought last year and I've picked it up and...

I'm reading a load of Scott Mariani's books at the moment, just finishing number 3 of 7. Ex-SAS kidnap & ransom specialist Ben Hope is a one man wrecking machine. When I've finished those I'll...
