"interesting that this author has written 17!!! of these types of books!i wonder if they all follow this pattern, just out of curiosity.. are they like the charlaine harris books where the main character always shreds a dress and must ingest vampire blood to heal every book? dunno.."
"Unabridged audio. Murders surround some antique dealers. Typical light mystery, okay for but not great. The reader, a male, was not very good at imitating female voices, and this really detracted from the reading."
"Lucas is back and with a couple of crazy cases. We get to see the start of Virgil Flowers, a character that is spun off in a different series. Watching the 2 men work the cases back and forth was great fun, especially as they realized that while the 2 cases shouldn't have anything in common, ulimately they do. We get to see alot of the background characters in this book which is always great fun. Another great book in the series."
"I probably wouldn't read another Lucas Davenport novel, but this one was certainly acceptable for whiling away 1) a long layover in the airport and 2) an afternoon at the beach. The writing is the usual pedestrian stuff; still, given the current quality of genre literature (and the fact that editors are MIA) it's better than many. That said, the prose is marred by some really glaring boo-boos in punctuation and grammar, including a use of semicolons that someone perhaps thought was idiosyncratic. It's not; it's just wrong. Sanford is also obsessed with a small group of pet words that become irritating after a few dozen repetitions(writing, e.g., that a driver "hooked into the parking lot" rather than saying "turned into"). All in all, solidly average."
