Five Complete Travis McGee Novels: A Tan and Sandy Silence/The Dreadful Lemon Sky/The Empty Copper Sea/The Green Ripper/Free Fall in Crimson

See individual novels for reviews. John D. MacDonald Reading A Tan and Sandy currently. Five Complete Travis McGee Novels: A Tan and Sandy Silence/The Dreadful Lemon Sky/The Empty Copper Sea/The Green Ripper/Free Fall in Crimson Somehow I missed the Travis McGee series in the 70s and a friend of mine passed this compilation to me in 2002. I immediately fell in love with MacDonald's characters, settings and plots. I think they translate well to the new millenium. Who wouldn't be captivated by the senstive, tough-guy,vagabond Travis? Mystery Thrillers, Science Fiction Fantasy So far in this compilation, I have read A Tan and Sandy Silence and A Dreadful Lemon Sky. I liked both of them very much. I have posted my review of the Lemon one elsewhere. I have finished The Empty Copper Sea and The Green Ripper now and really enjoyed them. Only one more to go in this collection. The stories in this one are from the latter half of the McGee series.

I am now finishing this anthology and reading Free Fall in Crimson. I'm on page 644 of 692 and so far it's slow going. Nothing much has happened in 57 pages. His books are usually page turners but not this one. I have added the April 22nd date as the start of this one. Many readers actually liked this one and gave it 4 or 5 stars, but for me it was slow, not much action and most of it in the last pages.

I have posted my review for Free Fall in Crimson under the individual book. 9780517476710 Absolutely worth the $9.00 I spent at a used book store! I love reading about Travis McGee! Meyer is weird too because he is so intelligent! All FIVE (5) of these books were delicious! Each different adventures with each different women! I love to quote some of the things McGee & Meyer say. I can see myself reading more McGee books! I am reading John D. MacDonald because when reading Brad Thor he had Steve Harvath reading about Travis McGee when he had a chance to read a book. I have read another author that did the same thing but can't recall which one it was. I will think about that! English

Runes of Royalty (A Demons Fall #4) By G. Bailey

Image
Protector. Angel. Assassin…and now Queen. Evie is now queen of the protectors, and rumoured queen of the demons aswell, but dealing with the black magic she can’t control is far more dangerous than either of those titles. The protectors have fallen, demons along with them, and earth is not far behind. Can Nix, Trex, Connor and Azi help Evie survive a power no one understands? Or knows how to stop… With random portals opening everywhere on earth, a war to be won and Cex tracking her every move, can the assassin-now queen- win the war? Demons will rule. 18+ RH Runes of Royalty (A Demons Fall #4) Runes of Royalty is the perfect conclusion to G Bailey’s A Demon’s Fall series. The emotions, challenges and wonderful storyline will have you addicted to the ending of Evie’s story. This is a series that I highly recommend and dans if G Bailey will definitely enjoy this series. On the plus side to this series ending, it seems that G Bailey will be continuing with this world in ...

Fear Not the Fall/Fannie Lou Hamer: This Little Light By Billie Jean Young

Image
In three dozen poems and a two-act play, MacArthur Fellow Billie Jean Young honors the tradition of struggle, resistance, and survival common to generations of women descended from African slaves. The tradition she dramatizes in her acclaimed portrayal of Fannie Lou Hamer (here for the first time in book form)--the tradition of making a way out of no way--is the same tradition she celebrates in remembering her mother's rub-board hands. Her poetry also reveals the often hidden costs of resistance. In this collection, Young celebrates her personhood as well as her African American womanhood and the power of self-creation and re-creation in the face of personal rejection, abuse, systematic exploitation, and oppression. Organized chronologically, her poems may be read as road markers from her life's journey. For Young, the road is not a freeway; it is not even always paved. It is, however, a familiar path and one many of us can enter. Fear Not the Fall/Fannie Lou Hamer: This Little...
