CSI: Miami

I have just finished reading CSI: Miami. It is one of those amazing episodes on tv right there in the palm of your hands. But now you know a lot more as you can read what they're thinking and how they feel. This is about how the CSI in Las Vegas are suspecting the murder of Erica Hardy leads to one man Thomas Lessor. But to get out he fly to his other little home in Miami, Florida. Only to be found dead on the beach, with his driver dead in the trunk of his limo. My favorite character is Horatio Caine, the supervicer and leader of the amazing crimanilist team. He is the one that everyone follows and is the main character in the book. I like him because he is the cool, calm man that is all was where all the action is. This book is great for all you mystery, suspence thriller lovers. This book will make you want to keep turning the pages to find out what happens next. But I warn you be ready for the unsuspecting.

Jim DiGriz, after an unsuccessful break-in at a mint, is sentenced to death. He is saved by his court appointed lawyer who rescues him. The lawyer then blackmails him into a job of recovering an alien artifact that was lost. Disguised as a rock-and-roll musician, he begins a journey to save his own skin. Another big hit for Harry Harrison. The Stainless Steal Rat is great fun.

Jim DiGriz is out for revenge for his close friend and teacher the Bishop, who had been killed by a weapons smuggler. In the process of locating the smuggler, Jim accidentally gets drafted in an army. Jim has to escape the army before they discover that he is an escaped criminal, while trying to get revenge. This book is exciting, every single page will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Jim DiGriz is a criminal in a galaxy where crime is scarce. This book tells the origin of this clever crook and how he goes from petty theft to robbery of all sorts. Jim is smarter than a lot of ordinary people and very lucky. He uses many different gadgets and disguises to carry out his well planned crimes.

I think Harry Harrison has a fascinating sense of humor. He writes his stories so that they keep you on the edge of your seat.

wide-awake princess

E.D. Baker has a knack for spinning unexpected and hilarious tales of fantasy. Her recent book, The Wide-Awake Princess, is one of my new favorites. In this story, Princess Gwen is Sleeping Beauty and pricks her finger on a spinning wheel, causing the whole castle to fall asleep for a hundred years. Only Princess Annebelle, who is immune to magic, can find Gwen's true love, so it's up to Annie and the palace guard, Liam, to hunt down her suiters.
