    " The first in the Diogenes trilogy does not disappoint. You are struck by the originality of the deaths, when it seems like you seen or read it all. "

    " Again, books I read because they're free. Currently it's kind of a curious mix of supernatural horror and spy thriller. I will say these guys do seem to do their research. "

    " It wasn't my favorite from these two or from FBI Agent Pendergast. ODO of Star Trek fame was doing the reading and as much as I love him, I think that hurt the book some. I also felt like it should have been fleshed out a little more. "

    " I have enjoyed most of the Pendergast books for one reason or another. This one stood out because it lifts a character directly from a "classic", namely The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins. "
