You
cannot go wrong with a Steve Berry book if you want a fun, thrilling and
enjoyable read - plus some great historical tidbits. His latest still in
hardback is THE
COLUMBUS AFFAIR, and
it is one of his better books this time focusing on Christopher Columbus -
and everything you THOUGHT you knew from grade school - well forget that! Pick
up the book for a tantalizing peek at a time and place long forgotten with
history you really missed! Berry at his best! If you like Steve Berry try his newest
paperback too - the Jefferson
Key is about the pirates who
made America what she is today - the land of the free. Believe it or not
- and this is no bedtime story, (unless you plan to be all up night turning
pages) you'll find some little known history from the American Revolution along
with a plot that includes a Jeffersonian cipher, a document forged by the
founding fathers and an assassination plot against the current US president. This
is another great Cotton Malone thriller for those familiar with Berry's Magellan
Billet series. But any of Berry's books are great stand-alone novels - so
pick one up to enjoy a summer beach read...
This blog is devoted to books and those of us who love them. You’ll find my book reviews and some tips on good reading if you just need something to enjoy!

Summer Reading 2012
Prions, the CDC, a stolen
Mayan codex, a race to stop an epidemic and the approaching date of 12/21/12 make for a heart pounding novel
and a fun summertime read. A cross between a Robin
Cook/Michael Crichton medical/biological thriller and a Clive Cussler/James Rollins
action/adventure novel,
it combines the best of both in an intelligently
written book that takes the reader on a journey from the lab to the museum to
the jungle. From the land of the ancient Maya to present day Los Angeles there
is little chance for boredom and a great chance that the reader will spend time
worrying about the truth behind this original story.
