Four
star review of The Killer Collective by Barry Eisler
A
complicated story featuring characters from Eisler’s other books
and involving people in high places and a child pornography ring.
Full of action, but also emotion, even
romance.
The scenes that take place in Paris are especially riveting. Since
I haven’t read any of his other stories, this was my introduction
to Livia Lone, Dox, John Rain, Hort, Larrison and Delilah.
Five
star review of Finding
Myself in Borneo by Neill McKee
A
fascinating account of the authors experiences as a member of the
Canadian equivalent of the Peace Corps, the CUSO in
the late 1960’s.
He taught in Sabah,
Malaysia (North Borneo),
and explored
southeast Asia. The people he met, the sights he saw and the events
he experienced make for a great read. He
does an excellent job of conveying his happiness with what he
learned, and what he brought to his students and the residents of
Sabah.
