Feedburner added 2008-05-27 16:54:58 Just a quick note that I’ve now linked myself to Feedburner and set up a few syndication options to the right in case you use one of those RSS-readers.
Sam Bourne - The Righteous Men 2008-05-27 09:55:02 I found this book lying at Borders and more or less bought it based on the theme and presentation on the back, an approach that usually works best for me rather than reading reviews (ok, that’s a great way to induce readers to follow my blog). In this case, I made a good choice.
As you [...] Read more:Bourne
Caleb Carr - The Alienist 2008-05-25 05:30:00 It’s been almost 10 years since I picked up Caleb Carr’s book The Alienist, and just as long since I last read it. However, it’s still one of my favorite books EVER.
Set in New York around the end of the 19th century, the story is being narrated by one of the main characters, a journalist [...]
The Templar Legacy - Steve Berry 2008-05-23 19:55:00 I’ll start this off with the punchline, so you really don’t have to read any further. Simply put, this book rocks. There, I’ve said it, that’s my review. No further comments needed.
Oh well.
Cotton Malone is a retired CIA-officer who’s moved from Atlanta to Copenhagen (Denmark) and opened a bookstore. However, as he’s visited by his [...] Read more:Legacy

Sign of the Cross - Chris Kuzneski 2008-05-23 02:30:00 This one caught my eye in the bookstore with a dashing cover and an interesting teaser on the back. Murder, links to early Chris
tian history, archeology, what could be wrong?
Well.. most of it actually.
I had never read anything else by Chris Kuzneski, so I wasn’t really sure of what to get, but I picked [...] Read more:Cross
Introduction 2008-05-23 01:56:00 I read a lot.. A LOT.. I love reading, and prefer good thrillers and mysteries. While there’s a good supply of books in this genre, finding the good ones isn’t as easy as one might think. I continously find thrillers that seem “right up my alley”, but end up shaking my head with disappointment after [...] Read more:Introduction
CJ Sansom - Dissolution 2008-05-29 14:48:43 This book is nothing short of fantastic. Not only does Sansom manage to enthrall his readers with a great classical “whodunnit”, but he also builds up a very vivid and clear picture of a 1530-monastery in Scarnsea, Sussex. The mastery does not end there, however. The author weaves in the political turmoil that is Henry [...]
James Rollins - Map of Bones 2008-05-28 09:25:03 Map of Bones
was my first Rollins
novel, and might actually be my last. I didn’t find the book terrible, but on the other hand I wasn’t “awed” either.
During a service at a cathedral in Cologne, Germany, a band of armed intruders dressed in monks’ robes ruthlessly guns down worshippers and clergy alike. They’re not [...] Read more:James

Paul Sussman - The Last Secret of the Temple 2008-05-31 08:02:29 Another thriller with a historical twist, this wonderful novel combines a history lesson with a very real contemporary issue, namely the constant conflict in the middle east. For those who have read Paul Sussman’s first book, The Lost Army of Cambyses, his second novel is a much deeper read.
While the “Lost Army” was great entertainment [...] Read more:Temple

What to read next? 2008-06-02 17:37:09 No review today, but a little bit of philosophy I guess.
I just finished a book today, this time CJ Sansom’s latest, and somewhere down the line you’ll see my complete review of this masterpiece. Finishing a good book is a bit of a bittersweet sensation. When reading something really good, I always have a hard [...]
Kathy Reichs - Break No Bones 2008-06-11 14:26:43 Many of us know of the TV-series “Bones
”, about Forensic Anthropologist Temperance Brennan. The FOX Television series is based on a series of novels by author Kathy
Reichs, who in turn has used her own life and career as an inspiration for her writing.
Break
No Bones is the ninth installment of the series, and as [...]
