Religion Can be Murder

A great CSI: MIAMI read by author Donn Cortez! This story revolves around a new diet/spirituality cult known as the Vitality Method. When members keep dying, Horatio and his crew of CSIs set out to prove that the founder, a well-known doctor, is behind the deaths. Another great, quick CSI read!

Great Read!

I originally picked this book up as a "cheesy" read for the beach or on an airplane, and I was surprised at how good it was! It really captured the essense of the characters, and while it was technical in places it was very readable and understandable.

Definitely better than the Collins books

This book was a lot truer to the television series than the two previous books in the genre. The characters voices were very much in tune with what you see on the screen, and the situation was unique enough to capture your attention, and plausible enough to believe it. The original characters were *people* and not cardboard cutouts. The language flowed smoothly, the settings didn't overpower the story, and the story didn't jerk from place to place to suit the author's timeframe. I for one am eagerly awaiting the next book - something I will NEVER do for Mr. Collins.

Keep 'em coming!

This is the first CSI:Miami book I've read; I've watched the TV series often. I was delighted that the author caught the essence of the TV characters. I could hear the voices and phrasing of the actors as I read. I think the appeal of the CSI series is that we can actually learn something new while we are being entertained. For me, the book version enhances that learning opportunity, without the sometimes gory special effects distractions. Overall, the book has a lively and interesting plot line, and showed skillful use of technical details. I look forward to more CSI:Miami books by this author.

Jorge and Snoopy don't know what they're talking about.
