    City In Ruins is a really good conclusion to the Danny Ryan series by Don Winslow. A great collection of characters, some of the side stores were almost better than the main one. 8/10.

    If anyone has read or knows the story of Homers "The Iliad" then the series, especially the first book is totally based on this. I loved trying to match each Winslow character to a corresponding Greek or Trojan.

    Dungeon Crawler Carl (Matt Dinniman) - 7.5/10

     

    Great fun, the audiobook is a must though, great narration. Definitely one for the gamers though.

     

    California Fire and Life (Don Winslow) - 5/10

     

    I'm a big Winslow fan but this was a bit all over the place. It was one of his first books and there were glimpses of stuff he now excels at but overall, not great.

     

    Resurrection Walk (Michael Connelly) - 8/10

     

    The best book in the Haller/Bosch/Ballard universe for a while. Really enjoyed this one.

    Yes, agreed on the Winslow and Connelly books. I really struggled to finish California Fire and Life, hard to believe it's written by the same guy who wrote City on Fire and Broken.
