One of my most favorite authors was Paul Cook. No do not rush right out and try to find something by him - he has not written a book in 20 years. But the ones he did in the decade previous to that stopping point I really liked. So does Swede.
So, part of my stash here in the hospital was six of his book I have not read since the 1990's. I first learned of him by picking up a book of his at an airport bookshop as I was jetting off to Scotland in 1987. Good book ...
Same book, 20 years later, but a different Kris reading now - such utter garbage! No nothing "wrong" with the story line - I just have changed to such an extent that his book held no interest what-so-ever to me any longer.
I picked up the next five books and they all came out with the same result! Wow, that really took me by surprise.
I am so saddened!
Well luckily there is another author I like, Roy Maynard. Alas he wrote very few books but I do like what he did write - still! I stay in touch with him via eMail to encourage him to crank out a new one every few years! But he does not seem interested in the idea, sigh.
So reading a book by J A Jance right now to see if I like this prolific author or not.
