I read "Bitter Harvest" by Ann Rule.
It was very well written.Very descriptive ...almost too much so. It left me with a bitter taste in my mouth. Oh,I don't blame Ms Rule except to say she really knows how to draw an accurate picture. I almost threw the book out when I was finished. Anyone who has read it and has children would understand.

I forgot to mention Jane Jensen.

Oh yes I also love true crime..Love all the Ann Rule books

I read true crime and Don Pendeleton books
books like
stony man
executioner
any Mack Bolan books
and any casino books I can find

Thanks Dano..ill try that one :)

The Acts of King Arthur and His Noble Knights (1976) ? ~*~

Read a book many years ago in Sweden.
If i translate (try) the swedish title it is:
"The knights around Danny's table" by John Steinbeck. Cant find it, have searched Amazon.com and Ebay. Any idea of another english title?

during the 60s have been Hans Fallada and Hermann Hesse ...

no offense though intended towards the dreamcatchers of my childhood,
Werner Bergengruen, Erich Kaestner and the great Astrid Lindgren :) ... ~*~

because unlike Stephan, Steven is just a plagiator-king ... ~*~

Oh yes I like Grisham too, I'd forgotten him, I like the occasional Stephan King.

My favorite Authors are Stephan King and John Grisham

Oh I love Wilbur Smith books, I find them so interesting and exciting too, especially his ones situated in Africa. Dean Koontz I enjoy too. Ohhhh I feel like a good read now, I haven't had one for ages. Amazon here I come. lololo

Mostly on the way to my work and back :-)

Best books ever: The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings :O)

Harry Potter doesn't even come close LOL (although still quite readable)

Fencer: Work, game site, games .... so when do you get time to read?

Donald E. Westlake (Hot rock, Bad news, Don't ask), Douglas Adams (Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy), Stanislaw Lem (Solaris, Cyberiad, Master's voice), J. K. Rowling (Harry Potter), Alan Dean Foster (Alien, Aliens), Andrzej Sapkowski (Wiedzmin), Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes) and many authors of Star Trek novels (Ann C. Crispin, James Blish, Gene DeWeese).

Here, I hope you will find a great group of open-minded people who love to read!

In Ancient times, there were people known as the Scribes. Their job was to record events and stories for future generations to enjoy. We are forever in their debt.
