https://killingmykindle.com/2019/02/25/episode-2-05-suffer-not-an-actor-to-live/ Wherein I review: 14. Crucible (Sigma Force #14) by James Rollins 15. The Reverse of the Medal (Aubrey & Maturin #11) by Patrick O’Brian 16. The Mangle Street Murders (The Gower Street Detective #1) by M.R.C. Kasasian 17. Heroes Die (The Acts of Caine #1) by Matthew Woodring Stover I keep SAAAAAAIILING through the Aubrey & Maturin series as they drift away from the war in which they started.  James Rollins has clearly run out of s–t to write about Indiana Jones style.  I […]

https://killingmykindle.com/2019/02/12/episode-2-4-its-so-hard-to-say-goodbye-to-yesterday/ Wherein I review: 11 – Vultures (Miriam Black #6) by Chuck Wendig 12 – Fire & Blood by George R.R. Martin 13 – The Far Side of the World (Aubrey & Maturin #10) by Patrick O’Brian Jammed that B2M song right up in the thoughthole, eh?  Chuck Wendig takes a bow on his Miriam Black books, and I get wistful.  GRRM writes yet another damn book that isn’t Winds of Winter, but it did remind me of how much I love ASOIAF, so I’m […]

https://killingmykindle.com/2019/02/02/episode-2-03-misty-water-colored-memories/ Wherein I review: 6. Ex-Purgatory (Ex-Heroes #4) by Peter Clines 7. No Sunscreen for the Dead (Serge Storms #22) by Tim Dorsey 8. Treason’s Harbour (Aubrey & Maturin #9) by Patrick O’Brian 9. Ex-Isle (Ex-Heroes #5) by Peter Clines 10. Cadillac Desert by Marc Reisner Illness and big-ass books make for strange bedfellows.  Peter Clines brings his superheroes vs. zombies saga to a close – definitely for now and probably for good.  Serge keeps serging, spewing Florida trivia and murdering a-holes.  Aubrey & Maturin […]

Ex-Communication by Peter Clines

Verses for the Dead by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child

https://killingmykindle.com/2019/01/19/episode-2-02-1-6th-choctaw/ Wherein I read: 4. Ex-Communication (Ex-Heroes #3) by Peter Clines 5. Verses for the Dead (Agent Pendergast #18) by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child As I type this sentence, I wonder why Peter Clines amazing superheroes battling zombies series hasn’t already been optioned and turned into your favorite series yet. As I type THIS sentence, I wonder if Preston & Child got notes from some marketing douche and wrote this book like “Is this what you wanted, you f**kface?”

Episode 2-01: Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies

Ex-Patriots (Ex-Heroes #2) by Peter Clines

The Farm by Tob Rob Smith

A Delicate Touch (Stone Barrington #48) by Stuart Woods

by Leave a Comment

https://killingmykindle.com/2019/01/10/episode-2-01-tell-me-lies-tell-me-sweet-little-lies/ CANNONBALL 11 HAS BEGUNNETHED. Wherein I review: 1. Ex-Patriots (Ex-Heroes #2) by Peter Clines 2. The Farm by Tom Rob Smith 3. A Delicate Touch (Stone Barrington #48) by Stuart Woods More delicious zombies vs. superheroes where we finally meet up with the military.  And they wisely utilize Arkham Asylumishness.  A son must decide whether his mother is being gaslit by his father or if her entire tale is a lie.  Stuart Woods keeps being all Stuart Woodsy.

Episode 1-49: I Feel It Coming, Babe

The Woman in the Window by A.J. Finn

https://killingmykindle.com/2018/12/28/episode-1-49-i-feel-it-coming-babe/ Wherein I review: 186 – The Woman in the Window by A.J. Finn I guess psychologist is the new author in the dark thriller.  This was pretty much Drunk Rear Window, and I saw the twists, but it wasn’t bad.  And as we creep towards the finish, I ponder whether or not to keep doing the podcast or hang up my spurs.  And disappoint my twelves and twelves of fans.
