Robert Dugoni - Damage Control and The Jury Master

[Chuck Barksdale]

My reviews for Robert Dugoni's two novels have now been posted on www.mostlyfiction.com. I read the books back to back and enjoyed them. Although Dugoni may write sequels to either book, Damage Control has no characters from the first book, The Jury Master. Both books are considered legal suspense, but they don't really fall into that category very well. Both books have lawyers as main characters, but the amount of legal work is minimal in both books. Also typical of many suspense books, the main characters do things a normal person would not do and get in and out of trouble in somewhat unbelievable ways. That didn't really bother me as that seems typical of most suspense books.

I still have to write a review of The Overlook by Michael Connelly. Of course, he's one of my favorites and he hasn't written a book I didn't think was great, including this one.
