It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Monster Of Florence
by
Douglas Preston

, September 04, 2011
I was struck, while reading this book, about how different criminal justice is handled in Italy. While our system certainly has it's flaws, I find myself particularly grateful to live here where appeals can be filed immediately upon conviction rather than years later and where there is some form of prosecutorial oversite. The book leaves me wondering if this the norm in Italy or an abberation. A very interesting read!

Cold Vengeance: An Agent Pendergast Novel
by
Lincoln Child
GOreader
, September 04, 2011
I enjoyed this novel primarily due to the character development. Pendergast isn't the perfect cold clinical detective here. He's emotional, at times frantic and a bit out of control. This is a real change for his character and I'm looking forward to seeing where Preston and Child take him. It was also nice to have Corrie back in a story. While frustratingly short, it's still a good read.
