I have been amiss in getting to all of the reviews that my buddies have been putting in, so I am putting them together in one post…
Enjoy, and sorry ladies.
Keep on reading.
Try Darkness
I don’t usually like serial books, but I make an exception for this one.
Very well written. After losing his fiance in a freak car accident, Ty Buchanan is convinced that it was no accident. He finds himself trying to survive on the streets of LA while proving his fiance was murdered.
Try Darkness – Ty finds himself living in St.Monica’s with a basketball-playing nun and a fallen priest. He offers legal services to the poor and underrepresented. He stands up for what is right and does not back down from the big and prestigious law firm that was his former employer.
A great story, hard to put down.. Am looking forward to the next one.

Broken Angel
Dave,
I had a little trouble with this one. It could have given more background information in the beginning. Caitlyn and her father are trying to escape from a state run by controlling fundamentalists. Reading is a crime, citizens are drugged into submission and anyone who breaks the rules is sent to slave labor or stoned to death. Caitlyn and two companions are aided by a sort of “underground railroad“. This is a very futuristic novel with suspense filled ending.
