Moo_Uan Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I like Grisham far better than Clancy. I think the newest book is "The king of torts", which is brilliant. btw: New book "The Broker" Jan 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaad Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I'm reading The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. Pretty good I must say. I'll read his two other books as well as soon as I finish this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say that the only correct thing about this book, is that its making money BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayjann Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 'Anything by: Clive Cussler' Clive Cussler pisses me off so much. he seems to release a new one every Month and only today i saw his latest. a Dirk Pitt novel and not the phoney character he writes about who is a total copy of Pitt. my local shop is doing a 3 for 10 Quid offer and i will probably get the Cussler book along with George Bests Autobiography(another one)and something by Chris Ryan. something to pass the time away when i have to fly the Atlantic to Florida and back in Feb. i could post the Cussler book to you when i have finished with it.....but fuck it. buy your own you cheap barstard.........

Central Scrutinizer Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 All, How about Steve Leather's highly readable and enjoyable books? I just finished three I picked up in a Pattaya used book store. (Swan Books on Soi Buakow. Decent selection there. It's just a ways past the Siam Sawasdee Hotel, the purple one, not the other.) I found "The Stretch" by Leather to be a good read. Also liked the "TunnelRats" and really enjoyed one about a guy who worked with the dead comissionfor the Balkans war that I can't for the lfe of me remember the name of now. Excellent story it was too. Cent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
