Shadow Divers by Robert Kurson
5.maj.2005
The unraveling of the mystery would be enough to propel Shadow Divers along at an enjoyable pace. Robert Kurson adds the stories of Chatterton and Kohler along with a healthy respect for the men who died in the service of their country. While the suspense in the book may be the determination of the identity and ultimate story behind the unknown submarine, the real strength of Shadow Divers is the story of the men involved.

The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown
10.kwi.2005
Without giving more of the plot away, suffice it to say that everyone in this book is in the hunt for the secrets hidden by the Priory of Sion including the Grail. Some want to protect it, some want to expose it, and some want to destroy it. With the information provided to them by Jacques Saunière, Sophie and Langdon are ahead of everyone else, but police, assassins, and churchmen aren't far behind. The race is on, the tension is high, and the puzzles to be solved seem incomprehensible.

A Question of Blood by Ian Rankin
28.mar.2005
For those who are long time readers of Ian Rankin's John Rebus series, this review won't be able to tell you how this novel fits into the series, how more of Rebus' character unravels to the reader, or how Ian Rankin's style or thematic structure has changed over time. For those of you who have yet to read anything by Ian Rankin, this novel stands on its own and is engrossing and suspenseful in its own right.
