Suggest a Book

[Exxcell]

Several months ago I read 'Intensity' by Dean Kootnz.
Its truly A good book and I really enjoyed reading it. But I haven't been able to find anything that was as good.
Do you have any suggestions?

What genre, style, etc....?

 

[Exxcell]

Ehh... I like the suspenseful horror but I also enjoyed Airframe by Michael Crichton and a few others in the 'Techno-Thriller/Sci-Fi' genres(they didn't strike me as those genres...)

The Bass Encyclomedia by Overly. Will blow your mind or if you are already a bass GOD will confirm everything already known. This is your mind on music is a pretty amazing book too. If you ready Harlen Coben, he is highly recommended, though not something I read much of these days.

Well, you could stick with Koontz. The Watchers is another of his more popular books.

I've read it. It was great! I'm trying to expand my horizon.

I'm trying to get through The Sound Reinforcement Handbook. It's like reading a textbook...

Anything from the genres I said above? Lol

How about some of Stephen Kings earlier work?

Just finally read The Talisman: what a great book.

If you like historical fiction at all, check out the Matthew Shardlake Mysteries by CJ Sansom. I believe there are 5 or so of them. All fantastic.

I also love Bernard Cornwell's Saxon Stories, Arthurian Trilogy, Grail Series, and his novel Stonehenge.

William Gibson. Check out "Neuromancer".

Early Stephen King. Peter Straub. John Saul. Dan Simmons. Justin Cronin. Robert McCammon.....to name a few.

I would HIGHLY recommend taking on Brian Lumleys 'Necroscope' series. A real good twist on the whole vampire mythology. Clever stuff, I assure you.

I have found the writings of Mr. Christopher Hitchens, insightful.

Another vote for The Stand, you should also check out his short story compilations, I feel like that's where Stephen King really shines.

1984 by George Orwell.

I'll +1 King's The Stand, probably my favourite read.

If you like Koontz, give the Odd Thomas series a read, they are my favourite Koontz books.

1984 is a great read too.

Ehh... I like the suspenseful horror ...

There's these books about a girl named Bella who's in love with a vampire and a werewolf ...
