I do enjoy this series. Quick reads with lots of twists and turns. Just a touch of horror.

A great addition to the Pendergast series. A return to form with an interesting mystery at the core. I enjoyed the storyline, and was surprised by the reveal at the end. I liked that this was a pure mystery, with none of the Constance/Diogenes drama. I look forward to more books like this one.
This book was one hell of a ride. A vulnerable Pendergast is not an effective Pendergast. I was biting my nails. It was fun to see the interactions between D‘Agosta and Pendergast, again, though. So, we have murder, of course, an arrogant reporter, a frustratingly unprofilable killer, several forms of madness, and a bizarre ending. I loved it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Engaging.
Book #17 in the Agent Pendergast series. Wow, the Pendergast get put through the ringer on this one. It was a stressful ‘who done it‘ all the way to the end.

Thanks for the tag @ju.ca.no 🤗🤗
That Pendergast book is part of my husband's favourite series
Jonathan van Ness' memoir belongs to my daughter's collection. She plans to own all the books written by the fun hosts!
@Librarybelle and @Megabooks you spy any books with flowers or leaves on the cover?? Hope you will play along 😊😊
Finally getting around to reading this. It‘s been waiting in the wings for an unnaturally long time. Unlike me to take so long. Usually Pendergast zooms to the top of the list.
I'm starting a new thing. The official

I NEED to read or find homes for all the books piled up by the TV in the living room. They are mocking me every time I look at them. 😁
However, I am NOT even going to try and pretend to implement a buying ban until I get Bingo; I'm just trying to work my way through the stacks this year.
I didn‘t find this one as engrossing as I did some earlier books in the series. The final showdown was a bit drawn-out; the denouement unfulfilling. I was, however, happy to see more of Pendergast and to see how he‘s been doing.
A little afternoon reading on this gloomy holiday Monday. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! ❤️📚🦃🇨🇦
The seventeenth part of the epic about #Pendergast! To be honest-like the book!😀 When I read about FBI special agent Pendergast, I thought I was watching a TV series! And for me, the plot of the book wasn't as important as the desire to know what will happen to the personal life of Pendergast?) At the end of the book was the epilogue...waiting for 18 part)😎
LOVED this Pendergast novel. Finally Preston & Child wrote another Pendergast story without including sci-fi as many do. My only minor complaint (which is partly a SPOILER) is that the plot line is very similar to the short story “The Most Dangerous Game” which I teach to my 9th graders. Aside from that, loved the book and can‘t wait for the next, especially after the epilogue with Constance!
So finished this one tonight. I must say I do really like how the writing styles of the authors melds together so well. This one wasn't a heart pausing as say The Relic but it was a nicely pieced story with some nice turns. I did find myself somehow going from what seemed like chapter 5 to 33 in no time yesterday.
Didn‘t like this one, though I usually like this series. Better to go back and read Relic again!

Five in a month is a lot for me. Plus, I will probably get my #coffeabeanbookclub #restingbookface and #whodunitbymail selections to add to the list.
Too bad I have to work...
Driving back from my surgeon visit in Virginia I thought I‘d treat myself. Nearing Burrito have I have missed you. 💕💕💕 Next will be a stop at 2nd & Charles. #bookandlunch
A dear friend, who is a HUGE fan of Pendergast, bought an extra signed copy for the husband.
He has faithfully followed the series since I passed a library copy to him, sometime last year. I had never placed so many book reservations with the library before! 😅🤣😅
Any other #Pendergast fans here??
Next up, another adventure with A.X.L Pendergast.
My copy of City of Endless Night finally arrived from The Poisoned Pen. Included with the signed edition was the cool print. I love the absinthe and the creepy eyes of Diogenes. 💚

They are back!!! After the last couple of books seems to slip, this one is crackling with suspense! Pendergast and Vincent together again!❤️
Not as good as others by them- seemed a little sparse on plot, detail and....interest? Felt like it was done by a computer...I finished it, did not read the ending while still on Chapter 5 but not sure I can recommend...
January is jigsaw puzzle month at Barnes & Noble. Grabbed a few more (the B&N exclusives with book covers are so much fun, the NatGeo is Shakespeare‘s Britain, and I ❤️ Pixar) and a couple new books. I‘ve been reading Iron Gold on my Kindle, but I had to have a physical copy for my shelves. 😍

I asked if she wanted to go out in the snow. This is the look I got. #thatsano #dogsoflitsy #peanut #pugsoflitsy
I did not want to put City of Endless Night down! I loved the combination of D‘Agosta being at his wit‘s end and Pendergast being peculiarly vulnerable. After so many books of the typical Pendergast, it was nice to see that in this story he was not his usual self and I loved that! ..….See the rest of this review and more at The Genre Minx Book Reviews www.thegenreminx.com #bookreviewer #TheGenreMinxBookReviews
