Love the characters Dallas, and her beautiful husband. This series is always gripping
Love her books can’t wait till next one comes
I love JD Robb’s writing as Nora Robert’s too.Read 17of the death books.Cant say enough about this great author Every book is fantastic.
This book is an e-thriller. All involved are modern day gamers, including the first to die. He is the face of the company along with 3 partners. Discovering who killed this happy go lucky guy is the premise of the book. It is woven well.
Eve Dallas is who I want to be when I grow up. Being married to Rourke wouldn’t suck either. I have been reading the “In Death” series since its inception and I have loved every book. JD Robb (aka Nora Roberts) writes a detective novel like she is a 30 year veteran of the police force.
loved this book as I do with all J.D.Robb books
I love both of the characters of Route and Eve. On the surface diametrically opposite, their shared backgrounds of abuse and struggle bond them together.
The supporting characters enliven the story line. At the heart of this series is the love and respect shared between these diverse characters.
I love this series. This is my favorite. I can’t wait for them to come out. I read them straight through.
These books set in the future show that even with technology advances humans remain the same. I would want Dallas and Peabody on any case at any time.
Love the Dallas and Roark books!
I like this book and have followed the whole series. The last few haven’t been quite as good as her earlier ones. This last east was slightly better than the last.
You can go wrong with Eve Dallas and Roarke! Live reading about the future and all the little details J.D Robb comes up with. Her story lines are always interesting and fun to read.
Have read every book in this series! Wish they came out as often as the Nora Roberts books.
I didn’t enjoy this at all and considered giving up multiple times. I didn’t care for the dialog, I figured out the mystery from early on and then our detective tells us the answer and spends the final 100 pages attempting prove what she’s already announced. I also found a lot of the characters and their relationships hard to believe in and, what may not be the author’s fault, but the sci-fi vision for 2060 is laughable by the standards of today’s technology.
JD Robb never disappoints.
Love this book. I love all the In Death series by JD Robb. Eve and Roarke are an awesome couple. You can see how they have grown since the first book in the series. Then after I have read them, I listen to the audiobook. I am hooked on Eve, Roarke, Peabody, McNab, Finney, Marvis and the whole cast. Love them all.
Love the futuristic timing and the chemistry between Eve and Roark!
I like JD Robb’s In Death Series, Love Eve & Roarke. This plot was based on VR gaming–interesting because with technological advances, it could happen in the future……
I love all of JD Robb’s Death books. This one lives up to the series.
J.D. Robb can always be relied upon to write a good story. The in death series is always a fresh story. Love the characters that she makes seem like real people that you can like or distrust.
