ghosts

I've read most of his books and I enjoy his style of writing. It's an education in itself about government and life. The stories are fast moving do not stagnate.

Odd book

This is a very odd read. I enjoyed it, but it reads a little slow, and jumps around a bit. Goes on the premise that ghosts are not just myth and instead of only a few that can see them, all can see them. Wars were all shorter or never took place as screaming ghosts are harder to hide than dead bodies. Country now in some type of Gestapo type of state, oil is a dear commodity, and most people use steamers instead of cars.
