Eric Van Lustbader recommends

Choosers of the Slain (1996)
(Amanda Garrett, book 1)
James H Cobb
"A direct hit."

Frames Per Second (1999)
Bill Eidson
"Reads like a bullet shot from a gun."

To Ride Hell's Chasm (2002)
Janny Wurts
"Like the best of J R R Tolkein and Frank Herbert. Ms Wurts' words are bursting with the Primal Force; brimming with unforgettable characters, infused with magic both dark and glorious."

Free Agent (2009)
(Paul Dark Trilogy , book 1)
Jeremy Duns
"Terse, sardonic, and knowing, Free Agent is a take-no-prisoners exploration of loyalty, duplicity and love. I dare anyone to put this book down after reading the first electrifying chapter."

The Couple in Room 13 (2010)
John Rector
"Tense, taut, throat-grabbing. John Rector is far more accomplished than his years. Reads like a cross between NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN and DELIVERANCE. Terrific."

Intelligence (2010)
Susan Hasler
"Hilarious, heartbreaking, and, above all, terrifying. A stellar debut!"
