Book Review of No Rest for the Dead

No Rest for the Dead
haasker avatar reviewed on + 37 more book reviews


"No Rest" is a serial themed book. Each author "inherits" the book from the previous author, and takes off with it, creating their own plot line within the plot line. Sounds like a great idea and a compelling read. With an outstanding cast of authors contributing, and one of the best mystery authors out there as an editor, I would have expected much more. The plot line was thin, and as each author made their contribution, it seemed like the plot was getting stretched thinner and thinner. It may have taken a magician to pull this one out. Not my favorite read, and it may have soured me on reading a serial storyline book ever again.
