Books I've Read (2008): Scarecrow

Mar 28, 2008 22:36

You know what's a really effective way to motivate yourself to read? Be away from home for a month and try to ward off homesickness by reading rollercoaster ride books.

Scarecrow (Shane Schofield #3), by Matthew Reilly: Yeah, I read book three in the series first because the store didn't have book one, and I thought Scarecrow sounded more fun than Area 7. Which worked out fine since I don't care about spoilers, and the book stands on its own well. It was a very, very fun book too! I kept being reminded of this one scene from Die Hard 4 where Bruce Willis launches a car into the air and takes down a helicopter with it. It's a scene that's really awesome to watch while it's also comepletely ridiculous, and the entirety of Scarecrow is like that.

Seriously, at one point a guy gets microwaved to death, it's awesome.
