Pondering



Just finished reading Tishomingo Blues by Elmore Leonard. Am currently reading several books on politics, history, and management so there is now an opening for another novel. The contenders are:

  • The Power and the Glory by Graham Greene
  • China White by Peter Maas
  • The Secret Sharer by Joseph Conrad
  • The Last Chronicle of Barset by Anthony Trollope
  • The Black Widow by Daniel Silva
  • Volk's Game by Brent Ghelfi
  • Blood & Beauty: The Borgias by Sarah Dunant
  • The Thin Man by Dashiell Hammett
  • Dictator by Robert Harris
  • Terror by Dan Simmons
All of them look good. I read the Greene book many years ago.

Hmm.

[Update: My choice was The Secret Sharer.]

If that one doesn't work out, you can't go wrong with Daniel Silva. S

Steve,

You're right. I've read all of Silva's series up to "The Black Widow" so am a bit behind.

He's extraordinary.
