Super Reader

This book is not quite as interesting as the others, but still enjoyable. The band of villains, in general, would not find having lunch with The Joker disagreeable. The fire and brimstone preacher fastest gun in the world guy discovers, much as Gallandro did with Han Solo in Brian Daley's trilogy, that speed isn't everything. I didn't know how she would get out of that execution/shootout scene, so O'Donnell continues to pull marvelous rabbits out of hats. Once it was down to 2 on 10, rather than 2 against 20 odd, the bad guys were outnumbered.

Chasing the Dragon

You can't keep a good girl down, and Modesty's the best. Lose her in the middle of the ocean, alone on a yacht and you can bet she'll find trouble. This time round a rescue at sea pitches Modesty into the hands of some daring Art Thieves. Who is their mysterious backer, and where is the loot being stored? Leave it to Modesty and Willie to turn the tables on the bad guys and come out (relatively) unscathed. They even have time to practise their latest hobby in the middle of a fight for survival. That takes dedication. Dragon's Claw is hard to find, harder than most Modesty titles, but go find it: you'll be glad you did.

No Modesty involved

Peter O'Donnell has done it again! I love his Modesty stories, and this book just made me want more. Willie Garvin and Modesty are the ultimate daring duo. No matter the situation, they always come through and with style and class....and of course with their customary wit and humor. Keep up the good work and Please Please write more!
