 | Nighthogs: A Pearls Before Swine Collection by Stephan Pastis

|
 | Ladies Night by Jack Ketchum
Buy new: $11.53 / Used from: $5.99 Jack Ketchum is insane in the best way possible, needs mainstream recognition (but then I guess so does Horror in general)
|
 | City Of The Dead by Brian Keene
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $2.99 Chock full of gore and well paced action, but lacks the suspense of the Rising, still the best Horror novel of 2005 (so far)

|
 | Map of Bones by James Rollins
Buy new: $17.96 / Used from: $0.13 This is what the Davinci Code should have been like, action packed, almost entirely unbelievable, and fun, Rollins is a great author who never fails to entertain
|
 | V for Vendetta by Alan Moore
