Book Review: Neon Prey (Lucas Davenport, #29) by John Sandford

 

Having read every book in the Prey series, up to Neon Prey, I am quite familiar with Mr. Sanford's style. Besides, who am I to disagree with Stephen King. Great summer reading, year round for that matter.

Neon Prey, to me, is one of his best. An exceptionally nasty set of bad guys, a good interacting assemblage of good guys, except for the Feebs, of course. No cop likes Feebs, but they will damn sure use them as much as possible when to their advantage.

I don't do spoilers. If you want to know what happened, read Neon Prey. You can thank me later.

Book Review: Dagger Path: Gaiadon Lore. Book One by M.T. Ceres

Only the Beginning

Gaiadon Lore is but the first leg of a fantastical journey in a new world. The author goes to great lengths to paint mental pictures of the characters, mystical creatures and a world unlike any other, and does a very good job. I won't mention the main character's name, it's unique is all I have to say about it.

One recommendation to all who embark upon the Dagger's Path; Do NOT bypass the prologue! It is very much an integral part of the story. And, one tip. There is a glossary at the end of the novel which was very useful to me.

Read June 18, 2020 to June 23, 2020.

Psychological thriller - well worth the read.

I don't often give out five star reviews. It takes something unique or it must engage me emotionally. Find Me did both.Now, No spoilers from me.

Anne Frasier has done an excellent job of analyzing the psychopathy of what drives some to heinous crimes against humanity and the impact on survivors and the offspring of those who perpetrate these crimes. The characters are very interesting and the thread woven through the story, provides almost as many questions as it does answers. As for the story - don't take anything for granted or at face value, there are more twists and turns then Ranch Road 2222 north of Austin, Texas. (It is considered one of the most dangerous stretches of roadways in Texas.) Google it.

I selected this book on a whim, looking for authors I've yet to read. I did quite well. Definitely recommended reading for the summer. Get it at Amazon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B082HS7291/

You can thank me later.
