I finished Child and Prestons seventh Pendergast novel, The Book of the Dead, which is also the third in the Diogenes trilogy. I think you can only like this book if you've read the second in the trilogy (the first only introduces Diogenes at the end of the book) because it doesn't explain what has happened before. Also the first half is slow; it's setting up everything for, what I assumed, a big and dramatic end. I was, unfortunately, wrong. I found the ending to be somewhat disappointing. I still like it, but I'm only giving it four out of five because of the ending.
I'm going to start Summer Knight by Jim Butcher (book four of the Dresden Files) today. Hopefully Harry doesn't whine and complain as much as in the previous book, it started to get on my nerves.
