Just one more nomination for Final Jeopardy and you can be on your way to reading a really good author. Plus it gives us one more book to choose from.

Yay! 7 books is a good base to work with for this I think. We have some recent and some classic books. A hard-nosed detective story, an assassination thriller, and some police procedurals. Nice selection I think.

For Carved in Bone, the page count is 416 pages in paperback or 352 in hardcover. I am not sure what format you are using for the print lengths.

I go with whatever Goodreads lists for the ebook or Kindle version. I missed that one, obviously. The number's in now.

With my last vote I'll second They Don't Dance Much. Still needs a third, and has 42 minutes to get it.

Don't go with Goodreads. A lot of the time it's wrong. Especially if there's an eBook edition. The ADE page numbers is what should be used for eBooks.

And in what central location can I find ADE books? I know of no ADE bookstore.

Well, given that we won't know the ADE page number without having a copy, the best suggestion if that cannot be accomplished is to go with the page number for the current pBook version be it hardcover, or some version paperback. We don't know what version book the page number used on Goodreads is.[/quote]

Goodreads is hit and miss because the various versions are entered in by people like me who depend on other sources for the numbers, and hardcovers, paperbacks, and Kindle versions at Amazon frequently differ for the same book. I look at page numbers as a rough guide. If most are in the same ballpark, I pick that one and run with it.

As for what happens with people who do not approve, see pretty much any episode of The Twilight Zone.

Sorry I am out of touch with series. Is there any need to worry (just in case)?
