Stone Cold by C.J. Box. This one held me entranced from the beginning.bb I listened until 3am for three nights in a row. Before that was a great book by Tony Hillerman, Mampns daughter,nAnn. Spider Woman's Daughter. She is really following in her fathers footsteps. Both these authors know how to take you the two lip ovations. Keep you riveted waiting for next exciting scene. Would really recommend both these. Wish there were more coming soon from these two.

Jeff B., Philadelphia PA, US Favorite author: David Foster Wallace Favorite type of book: big-idea fiction Last book I loved: William Gibson's "Pattern Recognition". I didn't truly love it until I re-read it for some background on viral media. His first novel outside the SciFi/futurist genre, Gibson was even more prescient in his descriptions of the ennui of late-stage capitalism.
