Never read a bad book by this guy. And I'm a sucker for Civil War stuff, so this one did it for me. Waning months of the conflict and Sherman's army is marching to Atlanta. The book is divided into three parts titled Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. No real reason for that as one is no different than another. Focus is on a few major characters, yankees, confederates, turncoats, slaves, and their roll in the unfolding events. Ends with the signing of the peace agreement and the assasination of Lincoln. A very good Civil War novel.
Grade - A

Product Description
Steve Dark is in retirement. Two years ago, as a member of elite crime squad Special Circs, he came close to putting an end to a psychopath's killing spree. But not close enough.
In revenge, the killer destroyed Dark's family. Dark quit, vowing that he'd never go back. He'd seen enough carnage and death.
But now the killer's back. The same psychopath who has shot, raped, maimed, poisoned, burned, strangled and tortured 50 people - the man who took away Dark's family. And Special Circs are convinced that only Dark can stop him.
Is Dark prepared to risk everything - his new life - to once more hunt a monster?
About the Author
Anthony E. Zuiker is the creator and executive producer of the most watched television show in the world, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. He produces all three editions of the CSI franchise: CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, CSI: Miami and CSI: NY. Zuiker lives with his family in Las Vegas and Los Angeles.
my view of the novel:
now, i dont really read too many books nowadays, but i picked up this one in the discount bin at Big-W a couple of weeks ago, been reading a bit every night,well until i fell asleep anyway!
i didnt want to put this book down...its a great novel from go to woe with not a single dull page in it.
at the end of some of the chapters there are links to the "level 26" website including codewords to view little snippets of something related to the chapter, which gives a real interactive feel to the story..only did it twice as it does get awkward stopping reading,then logging in and viewing sonething, then returning to the novel again...i guess this could be the way of the future in novels??
IMO this book is up there with the Hannibal Lector series, for both intensity,suspense and twists and unexpected turns,
this book should IMO get made into a movie, would love to see Anthony Hopkins in the lead role of Squweegel the serial killer, but feel he may be a touch old for agility and mobility!!!
i give this book a rating of 4/5 ***
NB: the "level26" comes into it becuase in real life serial killers have been rated by the FBI Psychiatrists on a scale of 1-24 according to their specific crimes, well, in this book the killer is above and beyond any known serial killer, thus he is a level26 in a league all of his own, so you can imagine the techniques and sadistic nature of his spree!
not sure of where real life killers are on the level scale, i guess you can google it if you want to know!

Have read a few Nixon books, and this one is not up to par with the others. The man is an excellent writer on foreign affairs. This one touches on that in a few chapters , but overall there is no one subject. Short chapters on many topics. Love him or hate him (neither here), the man was a prolific writer, and a political guru.

Quite a fascinating read. I like the write-ups for each album as why they were considered and eventually included in the collection.
Good fun for music fans. Beware, sometimes the write-ups will convince you to acquire more music.

Must give this one a try! Just finished ('reading') Storm's 'Taken by Storm' - great coffee table addition. The amount of detail these guys went into when designing album covers was just incredible.
