I much prefer fiction for pleasurable reading these days after nearly four decades of gun books.
For a GREAT read try, "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" trilogy! Three Fat books of Swedish mystery/intrigue...
Make sure you read "the girl' books by Stieg Larsson in order, three great reads. Mr. Larsson died after writing the three so there will not be more.
I've consumed fiction at an alarming rate for most of my life. I'm not sure if it's a curse or a gift but a novel takes about two to three hours, a Robert B. Parker two-hours and Louis L'Amour about 90 minuets. The last Tom Clancy "Dead or Alive' a couple days...hey it's a thousand pages. I just started on Walter Mosley and have read about six so far.
I highly recommend Lee Child's Jack Reacher Novels, they also should be read in order. I have the new one pre-ordered from Amazon.
The Louisiana tourist board should pay James Lee Burk not to write about Louisiana.
