Books, Authors and Reading 
There is no substitute for a good book
Although a bad one has been known to come close :-)
I have been an AVID (or 'addicted') reader for as long as I can remember. My parents' (especially my mother) gave me a love of reading early in life that I have passed on to my daughters. I have listed some of my favorite authors, books and links to other reading related sites. Cruise through, enjoy yourself and when you sign off-line, pick up a book.
Mystery Authors and Links
Dean Koontz --- Some more of everything
Mary Willis Walker --- Under The Beetles' Cellar
