August 26, 2008 - 4:00 am
As we slowly swim out of a sweaty summer, look for new book releases to pick up — yeah, fall!
We might not be there yet, but there are some big releases coming out this week.
Kathy Reichs, the producer of the Fox TV show "Bones," returns with the 11th book in her series featuring forensic anthropologist Temperance Brennan.
In "Devil Bones," Temperance is called in to investigate after a human skull is found surrounded by animal bones and the headless body of a teenage boy is discovered at a nearby lake. In the meantime, citizen vigilantes are blaming devil worshippers for the mysterious deaths and calling for vengeance.
Some other big and not-so-big releases hitting shelves near you: “Fade Away” by Harlan Coben; “The Gypsy Morph” by Terry Brooks; “Mike’s Election Guide” by Michael Moore; “Silks” by Dick Francis; “Identical” by Ellen Hopkins; “The Road Home” by Rose Tremain; “The Fifth Floor” by Michael Harvey; “I Am Apache” by Tanya Landman; “The Ghosts of Kerfol” by Deborah Noyes; “The Reminder” by Rune Michaels; and “A Practical Guide to Dragon Riding (Dragonlance: New Adventures)” by Lisa Trumbauer.
