I'm reading Dean Koontz's Frankenstein: Book One - Prodigal Son. It's really good! Set in the present day, a serial killer is on the loose - and Victor Frankenstein and his monster are still alive . . .

I am rereading Angelica by Sharon Shinn...it's sf, part of a series about a bunch of settlers who colonized a planet and left their spaceship, named Jehovah, in orbit above the planet and bioengineered winged humans to fly up and sing commands to it to control weather, send seed for crops down, and then forgot over the centuries that Jehovah was only a spaceship and how the "angels" had been created...pretty good!

I've been MIA for a while. Took a trip up near Bakersfield to go horseback riding. My mom and I went to the Rankin Ranch (Rankin is my maiden name). We had a very nice time and I loved riding. Hadn't done that in 20 years!!

Anyway, I've just started reading Immaculate Reception by Jerrilyn Farmer. My friend and I met her at the Festival of Books. This is the second in her series. Her character is Madeline Bean a caterer who works in Hollywood and LA area. I really enjoyed the first book so I'm glad we took the chance on her!

I don't know I'll either start Dean Koontz's Odd Thomas, which I heard was really good, or Envy by Sandra Brown. I just finished Laurell K. Hamilton's Incubus Dreams. I didn't
enjoy it as much as all the rest of her books. I'm just kinda bummed out because I love LKH so much. Hopefully it was just me and her next book will be great. ~Joey

Joey, I read 'Odd Thomas' and I liked it. I thought it was a good book. I read several Dean Koontz books last year and that was one of the good ones. I also loved 'The Taking' and 'By the Light of the Moon'.

I posted under the Harlan Coben thread that I started his latest book, The Innocent. Not too far along.


This is a whodunit (more than likely), but I'm guessing will have lots of twists, race at

Now, as you see, I'm reading Stephen King's Wolves of the Calla. It'll take me awhile, because it's 700 and some pages!
