Available November 2012 at your favorite bookseller from Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group. Steven James' fans will have to adjust to this new series featuring magician/escape artist Jevin Banks and his lovely assistant Charlene.

I'm reading a good old fashioned novel at present to be reviewed next week. And by that I mean it's more than the quick 300 pages of many CBA novels. It takes time to explore multiple characters' thoughts and motivations. And I love it. Long stories with good writing make wonderful reading. They…

Those I've read are reviewed on this blog if you want to check out a more in-depth opinion of them. Today I will include a few more highly recommended novels…

It's time for my traditonal non-traditional Christmas in October post. Yes, I almost forgot! For those of you who search for good reading to purchase for Christmas gifts, here are a few of my recommendations. I have read all of these. Tomorrow I'll suggest some I haven't read but will soon.
