2. I have read every one of his books---some twice. He is the best.

My favorites are the Harry Bosch series but I loved The Lincoln Lawyer.

He is very popular and I recommend him to everyone.

Try John Sandford too----he's great.

8. Well sort of. The do reviews on books, movies, music, etc.
And this issue was the best and worst of 2005. His book Lincoln Lawyer was listed as one of the best books of 2005.

4. Big fan of Hieronymous "Harry" Bosch
Read the series chronoligically because Michael uses bits and peices from previous books to build on as he continues to perfect the charactor "Harry".

I said so in the Fiction forum, see? --> http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=208x7933

He is an excellent excellent writer. He and Dennis Lehane are my two favorite mystery writers.
