 | Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith
Buy new: $15.74 / Used from: $0.13 Great story with wonderful characters in a setting that illustrates a government that rules by fear where even the enforcers are not safe. The frustration of the "unfairness" of the way people is made very real in this story. One of the best book I have read in a while.

 | In Odd We Trust by Queenie Chan
Buy new: $7.88 / Used from: $5.83 Fun yet short and simple addition to the Odd Thomas world.
|
 | Metal Gear Solid by Raymond Benson

|
 | Michelangelo's Notebook by Paul Christopher
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 It seemed to set up an interesting premise with the discovery of the notebook page and a few murders. But sadly the plot went nowhere, and I mean nowhere.

 | The Last Oracle: A Novel (Sigma Force) by James Rollins
Buy new: $20.48 / Used from: $0.06 Yet another fun adventure from Rollins. Well written with lots of information and cool science. I would love to see him write a non sigma book one of these days though. The Indy book does not count. :-)

 | The Shack (Special Hardcover Edition) by William P. Young
Buy new: $15.74 / Used from: $11.00 There is so much great stuff packed into this little book that I need to read through it again and take notes. What would you ask God if you could hang out for the weekend. This could really change your thinking about a relationship with God and how it is defferent from religion.

 | Fight Club: A Novel by Chuck Palahniuk
Buy new: $10.04 / Used from: $8.00 After reading this I can say they did a great job adapting this to the big screen. Funny, witty, and dark. Fight Club is a great read.

 | American Gods: A Novel by Neil Gaiman
Buy new: $10.19 / Used from: $3.98 Lots of folks loved this book so my expectations might have been a little high. I enjoyed it very much but the story was kinda all over the place for me.
|
 | The Dangerous Days of Daniel X by James Patterson
Buy new: $13.59 / Used from: $0.01 Umm, This was not so good. Obviously geared toward the younger crowd this was way below the quality of the Maximum Ride series. The writing was awful and the story was almost too farfetched. Moved way to fast and never developed anything.
|
 | The Crystal City: The Tales of Alvin Maker, Volume VI by Orson Scott Card
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $2.91 The Final? book in the Alvin Maker series, I hope not. It is always fun to jump back into this world. Alvin does many amazing things and proves to be the leader he was ment to be. Great read.
|
 | Into the Storm: Destroyermen, Book I by Taylor Anderson
Buy used from: $6.83 I took a chance on this one and it was good. It move a little slow between the action but the over all story was fun. I will probably read the rest of the series when it comes out.
|
 | Blood Rites (The Dresden Files, Book 6) by Jim Butcher
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $2.90 Different tone and feal. More focused and not as all over the place. The run-in with the White court vampires reveals much about Harry's past.
|
 | The Academy by Bentley Little
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $1.46 This is Bently Little doing what he does best. After his last effort (The Vanishing which was awful) this was a pleasent shift back to the familiar.
|
 | Going Postal by Terry Pratchett
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.67 Took a little getting used the discworld environment but once I got into this was a great book. The main character was great and the story was well plotted. Can't wait to read more discworld novels.
|
 | Deep Fathom by James Rollins
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.62 A little old school James Rollins. A little different from his usual formula but a good story non the less. Lots of adventure and action and interesting psuedo science.
|
 | Coraline Movie Tie-in Edition by Neil Gaiman
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $2.47 Coraline is a great little creepy story by Neil Gaiman. This was pretty awsome. Can't wait for the movie.
