Review of Orca: A suspenseful read that kept me engaged! I read this while contemplating a cruise to Antarctica so it was especially interesting to me. Lots of attention to detail, especially regarding the ship and the magnificent setting. A few years ago I was on an Explorer ship and this book brought back great memories. Good character development makes the plot come to life and I'm looking forward to the future adventures of Stone Ayers.
Review of Orca: Enjoyed reading this suspense novel about hired assassin, Stone Ayers, who is assigned a hit on a target headed for an exploration voyage in the Antarctic region. There is some back story of the lead character and a great description of an Antarctic cruise ship trip which I have never taken. Stone explores the ship in an attempt to carry out the perfect disappearance of his bad acting target. One feels like you are on the cruise and know the passengers and crew. I will not give away the ending, but you can see there will be more for Stone Ayers in the future. You will also want to sign up for an Antarctica trip after hearing about the voyage and wildlife.
Review of Avenging Angels: JC Norton again brought me along to a niche travel destination -- this time it was Kentucky horse country. Like the two novels before, JC dove deep to the culture of the place. And I am here for it. The background was well researched. The plot was completely plausible. Kudos to the tech consultant. The characters, especially everyone's main man Stone Ayers, were as charming as ever.
I'm off to have a Lagavulin! Where to next, JC?
