David Barbee wrote a book . Its about super heroes and super villains.
And its about a bastard, appropriately named The Bastard, who finds love in chaos and truths in conspiracies while investigating the murder of his nemesis.
Lots of violent content; it is very twisted. Definitely not for everyone. Read the rest of this entry »
Most of my heroes are tough guy fixers, like Reacher, Repairman Jack and Omar from The Wire, who level the playing fields for the rest of us. There can be no better recommendation than to have one of their creators endorse a book. Read the rest of this entry »
Iceland as described by Erlendur is a dark, and alienating place best visited with a glass of spirits or dosed on prozac. Ironically, in this suffocating landscape, its inhabitants can avoid intimacy but can never escape their interconnectedness.
Winner of the Golden Dagger Award
Plot in 20 Words or Less: A human skeleton is found in the bottom of a draining lake, tied to some kind of Russian listening device and Erlendur must unravel the mystery while exploring his own understanding of passions, loyalties, and consequences.
(ok- that was 36 word but, well, its complicated)
Great book- read this one. And make sure to read Jar City too. Or rent the movie.

Plot in one hundred (100) words or less: John Taylor, The Nightside's paranormal PI, is hired to investigate the kidnapping of an immortal. However someone is interfering with his "special gift". The story flips from a supernatural tale to an old-fashioned whodunit- depending only on the tricks up his sleeve
even though i have ADHD, i am a voracious reader. i normally read 3 books at the same time, picking up the one i find readable on any particular night...more i don't feel like writing about books anymore. I would rather read and be snarky.
