Hi, Judy!

Those links to “Recent Books” are safe: since I actually run this site, I make a reasonable effort to insure that everything that appears here is reasonably safe. The links will take you to a page here on my site regarding the book which *might* have my review of the book. However, since I haven’t written many reviews, probably it will just show a picture of the cover 🙂 Here is one of the rare ones where I actually wrote a review: The Sharing Knife. There is a link from there that will take you to the Amazon books page for that book, which usually has a synopsis and reviews.

Most of what I read is “fluff”: fantasy or science fiction, usually with fairly easy to get into stories. A warning that several of the recent books I’ve read are actually fantasy/”erotica” by Laurell Hamilton. Elves, vampires, and werewolves having sex, sort of mixed in with a detective/mystery story. I got into her books a couple of years ago and they are sort of like popcorn.

The Garrett, PI series by Glen Cook is fun: imagine a Mike Hammer type detective story set in a fantasy world with trolls and dwarves. Glen Cook is a very good writer, in my opinion, and if you like his Garrett, PI series and want something more serious you could check out his Black Company books.
