Now on to my June selection of a freebie
from the Amazon lending library,

The Bedroom Bolero (Ed Noon #11)
by Michael Avallone.
Because of some confusion on my part where in some listings The Bedroom Bolero is listed as #11 and in other listings it's #13 and #11 doesn't seem to exist at all!! Anyway, because of this I read The Living Bomb (Ed Noon #12) before reading The Bedroom Bolero (Ed Noon #11 or #13). This oops is significant because in The Bedroom Bolero Ed moves to a new apartment, rents a new office, and hires a new secretary whereas in The Living Bomb nothing has yet changed! Oh well!

I liked The Bedroom Bolero a whole lot (the best of this series that I've read so far).

Next will be...

Steampunk Holmes: Legacy of the Nautilus
by P.C. Martin.
Quote:
In an alternative Steampunk universe (c.1885), the plans for Captain Nemo's mysterious Nautilus submarine have been stolen from the British Secret Service. There is only one man who can solve the case, Sherlock Holmes. With his bionic side-kick Doctor Watson, and his brilliant and lethal sister, Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock unravels a mystery that will shake the foundation of the British Empire.

Adapted by P.C. Martin from the short story, 'The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans' by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (c.1912), 'Steampunk Holmes' is a convergence of one of Doyle's favorite Sherlock Holmes stories with Jules Vern 'Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea' (c.1870)
