Dauntless: The Lost Fleet, Book 1 by Jack Cambell

Futuristic tale of galaxy battles with an old but enjoyable premiss. Problem is from the first few minutes of the book you know where it's going. Enjoyed it, but I don't know if I'd return for book 2.

Bad Luck and Trouble by Lee Child

The 10th of 12 Reacher stories I've read and I like them, but they are too detailed on silly things and they do all kind of sound the same, but they're fun.

Lost Light (Harry Bosch) by Michael Connelly

Connelly is in form and the characters and plot are very enjoyable. Bosch is retired and returns to an unsolved case. Good stuff.

Hell Hole by Chris Grabenstein

These John Ceepak and Danny Boyle mysteries have an excellent narrator and they're light and fun.  Hell Hole is a lot like Tilt A Whirl and I'd probably listen to one of the other two books in the series.

One Shot by Lee Child

This is the 8th of a series of 12 Jack Reacher stories I've read in the last year. Easy reading, fast and fun. Reacher helps a sharp shooter accused of randomly slaying 5 people - premise and ending are weak, but the book is still fun.

The Enemy by Lee Child

Goes back to when Reacher was younger and is a good read but the end is weak.  Lots of background info on the Reachers.
