Taxi 4

The fourth in the series. I found this one not very good. It missed a good pursuit in a car, afterall the movie is called ‘Taxi’

Lord of chaos

Sequel 6 in “the wheel of time” series. I found this book a bit slow going, however the last chapter makes that up. |I had to reread it.

The fires of heaven

I found the next sequel of the wheel of time series. In this book really the next step is taken, so a lot is happening.

Cars

A nice movie, another success of Pixar. It was entertaining, funny and even moving at some times.

The afterlife experiments

In this book a set of experiments is presented with mediums that can contact the afterlife. The author has defined a scientific protocol to execute these experiments. This protocol guards against possible fraud. The results are very interesting and show that it is possible to contact persons in the afterlife through mediums.

Close to home

Alan Banks has to dig into his own past in order to solve a crime. Another nice read.

Strip Jack

Nice story. Much better than the first Ian Rankin we read. It is about an intrigue around a Member of Parliament and friends in his neighbourhood. And naturally some deaths.

Het Janson Dilemma

Nice book, read it in two days.

Before the Frost

This books gives an interesting twist to the inspector Wallander series. His daughter Linda will start working at the same police station. In the book we follow the work of Wallander seen from his daughter eyes. But she gets involved in the procedings herself as well, when a friend of hers gets involved. She is under threat as well and Wallander hs to save her, when a group of religious fanatics threat to blow up several cathedrals.

The Conscious Universe

This book gives an overview of the scientific research into psi. As this is a contested subject information is given on the scientific methods and the criticisms of critics are analysed. The book is very interesting and clearly show that psi can be proven te exist. How to explain psi in terms of theory is however another matter. But that is where the psi researchers ar now moving into.

Seven Up

Stephanie Plum gets into another mess again with very unlikely events. A retired bail jumper makes here life very difficult again. And she continues to live in an open house.

Dr. Quantum’s little book of Big Ideas

This book gives a short overview of the relation between consciousness and physics. It presented several very dep thoughts, which are difficult to grasp. I will read some of his other books.

Hot Six

Another Stephanie Plum novel. It was again a very unlikely story, but that gives so much more pleasure. Still fighting her relation with Ranger and Morelli. And the usual display of strange characters.

High Five

Another enjoyable book in the Stephanie Plum series. A normal request into a lost family member turns into a strange quest for the truth and the truth is more complex than expected. Also her love life takes an interesting turn. And naturally the usual array of weirdo’s pass by and strange setbacks for Stephanie happen.
