Is that a new Callahan book? I hadn't heard of that one...

[msmemory.livejournal.com]

It takes place in The Place's new home on Key West, a sequel to Callahan's Key. Mike Callahan doesn't actually appear in this one, though there are many familiar faces like Jake, Eddie, and Doc Webster (and their sharp repartee).

yeah, I noticed that one recently, too

I was trolling through audible.com's listings (kr1mz0n_ghoti gets books through them for long car trips and I was curious what they had that I'd read for recommendation purposes) and noticed that spider has once again snuck _two_ whole new Callahan-verse books in without my noticing! (Key and Con)

Something will definitely have to be done about this situation :)

Callahan's Reviews

I heard about them a while ago, but the reviews on Amazon (from self-described Callahan Fans) were lukewarm at best. What did y'all think of the newest ones, then?

oh! I need to find that -- I think we may have a copy knocking around the house. I thoroughly enjoyed Key.

Been out for awhile, actually ... July of last year. It was fun. Not the best of the series, but it's hard to beat the first couple.

I agree. I enjoyed it, but I haven't enjoyed any of the recent ones as much as the first two.

Yep. Don't get me wrong, I'll keep reading 'em, and buying 'em and ... <g> at least until his writing goes south. It does feel with some of the books that while he loves the characters, and wants to do more with them, he is at a loss sometimes for where to go with them. I won't give away the ending to this one ... but have some kleenex nearby.
