The List of 7

Rating:
Summary: Lock the doors, and put your back to a wall...
Review: I have never been so drawn in to a book as I was with Frost's "The List of 7." For starters, I could not put it down...every chapter led you on to the next. Secondly, his descriptions of the experiences of his two main protagonists chilled me to the bone. I could almost sense that I was there alongside them, and I would begin to jump at little noises I heard in the room around me. He is a very effective author, and I hope that he continues to write of the adventures of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, beyond this book and "The 6 Messiahs."

Summary: a lot of fun, but could have been written better
Review: I enjoyed "the list of seven". I was curious about it because: 1. the writer is the cocreator of twin peaks 2. it is said to be a cult book. Well, this is a very amusing, imaginative and original book but be warned: it is not literary at all. Of course, since it's a horror-adventure story, that's not what you would expect but there are parts (esp dialogue, strange for a screenwriter) that really could have been written better (this was obvious to me and I am not even a native english speaker). A few parts dragged a bit. Somehow, it seemed a bit like an old-fashioned adventure story for boys. It could be a very exhilarating movie. All in all, if you love the genre, you will probably enjoy it.

Summary: Sporadically excellent!
Review: Although I thought the ending was a bit abrupt, and some parts of the book dragged a bit, the remainder of the book was a thrilling rollercoaster ride.

Summary: What A Great Read!
Review: Without a doubt, simply the best book I have ever read. Adventure, mystery, suspense, horror... this book weaves it all into a masterpiece. The historical characters add so much to this richly cast story. Sherlock Holmes fans are rewarded with a special insight never before considered. The streets of Great Britian from the late 1800's are very much alive! Don't miss the journey.

Summary: A masterpiece.
Review: When you read this, I think you will come to feel as I do that the true genius behind the best parts of "Twin Peaks" was not David Lynch, but Mark Frost, the author of this novel. It's not often that I lay down a book and just say "Wow", but I did with this one. What else can you say about a book that gives you the history of Sherlock Holmes, Dracula, Jack the Ripper and one other person that I can't give away because it's the last line of the book. Usually the words intelligent and thriller just don't go together, but this is not only one of the most breathlessly thrilling books I've ever read, but it also never assumes the reader is a moron. Something rare in this day and age. Follow the amazing exploits of a young Arthur Conan Doyle as he goes on a trip that would make Sherlock himself blush with envy. Highly recommended. Calling Mr. Spielberg, I think I just read your next movie!!!

Summary: the game's afoot!
Review: This is a classic fantasy thriller that features Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes as the hero! Doyle with the aid of a Holmeslike sleuth names Jack Sparks must match wits with a band of criminals trying to take over England by supernatural means. This novel combines thrills, chills, humor and a little romance it also has one dandy of a final line.

Summary: By the best
Review: This book has everything you could want and is my personal favorite. If you read it and seem a little dissapointed at the ending read the sequel The Six Messiahs which is also a terrific book that I highly recommend!!!

Rating:
Summary: One Great Book
Review: This scary, intelligent book is an instant classic as it plunges you into 19th century England with a tale of evil and treachery. The characters of Sparks and Doyle travel headlong into a world of Satanic plots with more twists and turns than seem possible, yet the novel nonetheless inspires emotion and sympathy for our hero and his accomplice. When you finish reading this one you'll feel like a part of its story.
