More books please! - Sorrel - 10-01-2007
I recently read Sister Night, and I started Black Wind last night, but what should I read next?!
I tried to read Implant, but I nearly keeled over by page three and had to stop! (i'm not good with brain surgery!)
I've read all the RJ books (needless to say!) and dont expect Black Wind will take that long as its so exciting already, I only got about one chapter in before bedtime! What else are you guys reading?

Jack is sometimes compared to Andrew Vachss' character Burke. You might want to try him out, although his books get extremely grim and violent.

If you haven't read the adversary cycle I'd go for that
Start with The Keep, then The Tomb (RJ book), The Touch, Reborn, Reprisal and finally Nightworld (you might want to save the last one until the RJ books are all finished)
If you like vampire books FPW's - Midnight Mass is an excellent vampire novel (and the limited is stunning if you can lay your hands on a copy)

Except for RJ and AC, I recommend SIMS and THE FIFTH HARMONIC. Both books are terrific!

Sadly (in the sense that I cant read them again with fresh eyes) I have already read the Advesary Cycle! Bones Weep Tedium was trying to get Midnight Mass, but I dont think he got it yet. I'll have a look for it! Cheers!

If you meant non FPW then Preston & Child books are good, and seem popular with the gang here
If you fancy a real change Scott Miller put a few of us onto Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch. Fantasy with a difference (don't let the swords& sorcery angle put you off) this series is excellent
If you don't mind graphic novels try the Sandman series

Also try Virgin........it has been re-released recently. Great story as well.

"Look. Don't go in there. It's a set-up. A trap."
"Who...?"
"My name's Burke. I hear about you. Like what I hear. But let my family take care of this."
BOOOOM!
"Four less clowns roamin' 'round town. The plan was sweet and the tuck went neat."
"We got everybody, Prof?"
"The man of silence got the man of violence! We all flyin', let the devil be buyin'"
"We're wind. Jack...we gotta have a meet soon."
"Yeah. I heard about you too, Burke. And your family."
"Whole town's going nuts. Something about that crazy symbol."
"How about the meet?"
"Julio's at ten tonight?"
"You...you =know= that's my hang?"
"I just look stupid, pal. I read Paul Wilson's books too."
