I just looked at my list, and I read Echoes from the Dead years ago having picked it up from the library. I have the ebook of The Darkest Room, but I haven't read it yet. I think I'll go back and read the first one again, as I can't remember what I read yesterday, much less what I read back in 2008. I marked it as 5-stars, so I must have really liked it.

How about the Outsider in Amsterdam series (that is the name of the first book) by Van De Wetering?

you could also try out Harlan Coben' Myron Bolitar and Win Spencer series.
other auhors that you might enjoy could be Greg Rucka's Atticus Kodiak series (one hell of a name for a character), and Stephen Hunter's Swagger series. by far the best pairing i have read is the one mentioned by several before me, Robert Crais's Cole and Pike series. Crais' stand alone Pike novels are great books too, in fact i prefer those.

You should check out Lindsay Buroker's books (THE EMPEROR'S EDGE SERIES--of which the first book is free) and also Juliet Marillier's books (THE SEVENWATERS SERIES, etc.) if you love fantasy stories!

I loved John Jakes' Bastard series when I was younger.
I also really liked the Dortmunder Series by Donald E. Westlake (and a lot of his novels, especially The Ax). |

In honor of the history of this thread, someone should post some titles about Necromancy or Revivification, no? :-)
