| Deja Dead by Pocket Star Scientific & scary, in a good way |
This is the first of Kathy Reichs' Temperance Brennan novels and the first one I have read, but it will not be the last. Ms. Reichs writing is wonderfully descriptive - you really can visualize each scene while reading. Her skill at conveying the specific scientific details while maintaining the twists and turns of her well designed plot makes for a book you won't want to put down.
So, pick up the book, settle in to your favorite reading spot and get ready to be pulled in to Tempe's world. Just make sure the doors and windows are locked - you don't want to have to get up to make sure during the really scary parts... |
| Deja Dead by Pocket Star Not a New Series, But New to Me |
As a longtime reader of murder mysteries, I'm always on the lookout for a new author (or at least new to me). I've enjoyed the Kay Scarpetta series by Patricia Cornwell, and while waiting for my new Kindle to arrive, ran across reviews for the Temperance Brennan by Kathy Reichs. I decided to start with the beginning of the series, and found a copy at my local library. It was a very good read. I found myself picking up the book every chance I got to find out what happened next.
I would definitely recommend this book to others. I think 'Death du Jour' (second in the series), may be my first purchase for my Kindle when it arrives tomorrow. I can't wait to see what case Temperance tackles next. |

| Deja Dead by Pocket Star bones galore |
| this first introduction to temperance brennan is a promise of things to come. fresh and exciting |
| Deja Dead by Pocket Star suspense and thriller |
| This book i enjoyed reading very much. I wanted to read more after seeing the TV series Bones, but be warned; this is a very different story in it's setting and the main characters are different too. Of course Tempe is unchanged, but the TV is really totally different. However it is a good read for every one who likes detective-thrillers like the books by Patricia Cornwall. |

Her life is devoted to justice -- for those she never even knew. In the year since Temperance Brennan left behind a shaky marriage in North Carolina, work has often preempted her weekend plans to explore Quebec.

But her investigation is about to place those closest to her -- her best friend and her own daughter -- in mortal danger. . . . |
