Long Time Favorite Series Still Going Strong…..

I started recording the books I read in 1987. By the early 2000 that swas more than necessary becuse I was reading some many mystery series.   I have been reading the books of the following ten authors since the early 2000s. I still look forward to ne books in their respective series.

Rather than trying to decide which one is my favorite, which is actually impossible, my favorite author is the one I’m currently reading, I listed the authors based on the number of their books I have read.

I was surprised when C.J.Box came out on top!

Here are Some thoughts about the authors listed

As pure descriptive writers I think that Burke, Krueger and Peter May are at the top!

As an author who has done more with their series than any other you can’t beat Karin Slaughter. While I will never forgive her for what she did, I understand and accept it! Kent I forgive you also! I

Michael Robotham’s Joe O’Laughlin is for me one of the best characters in crime fiction flawed of yeah, but the suspense in each and every book is heart pounding!
