I've been in the mood to do some reading lately. Read Simmon's The Crook Factory, Darwins blade, and A Winter Haunting.

I know he writes some sci-fi, but I'm not much of a sci-fi fan. I've read pretty much all of his mystery/suspense books that I cared to read.

Was wanting some suggestions on other authors. In the mystery/suspense genre.

Read the "Siege", And if you find a place to buy Demyansk:Tales of Horror from the Russian Wilderness, Let me know, because I want to read it too!
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

I'm not much an SF fan either, but once I stated reading the "Hyperion" series... couldn't put it down.
