Review title: No Evidence Presented Product review: The book was bad. Practically every chapter relied on the Gospels being more or less reliable accounts, and then went off defending Jesus's divinity from there. As I've said plenty of times, if non-believers accepted that the Bible was true, we'd already be Christians. But we don't, so citing scripture as proof is nearly pointless. It would be like trying to prove Mormonism by quoting the Book of Mormon, or Buddhism by quoting the Buddhavacana. McDowell only spent one chapter trying to make a case for the Gospels being reliable, and didn't really succeed. And without that base, the rest of his book just falls flat. This book won't convince anybody who's given serious thought to the question of Christianity.I've written a more detailed review, longer than what's appropriate for Amazon, on my website. Since it appears that Amazon won't let you put links in your reviews, I've pasted the url into a comment for this review.

Review title: If you liked the original Scarpetta - stay well clear. Product review: Kay Scarpetta was one of the most interesting characters to enter the crime fiction genre. Intelligent, strong, independent and complex - she found herself in superbly written and engaging plots. Not any more. The Scarpetta series has been losing quality over the last few books - this is definitely a continuation of that trend. The characters that inhabit this book are cardboard cut outs of their former selves. There is no snappy dialog, no witty exchanges or brilliant, inspired detective work. Everything happens by the numbers - the only surprise this book delivers is whether you can bear to finish it. The characters, plots and climaxes are getting tired - do yourself a favour - steer clear of this one.

Review title: Delighted overall Product review: For the price I don't think you can beat this Sharp microwave. I just wanted a basic microwave that did the job. I was replacing a countertop micro that was rated at 1200 watts and I was concerned that the rated 950 watts of the Sharp would be inadequate. My fears were groundless as the Sharp functions every bit as fast the older one. I like the sleek appearance without a protruding door handle. They recommend two people to mount this oven, however since I didn't have help available I was able to easily mount it myself with a little thought. If I were to rate it down for anything it would be that the mounting instructions are confusing in a couple of areas, mainly in the venting info. All-in-all a good buy.

Review title: Typewriter For Snail-Mail Product review: This typewriter was purchased for the writing of actual snail-mail letters, since I do not have a printer with my laptop. It does not have all the bells and whistles of an expensive typewriter but it has all I need for the simple writing of letters. The price was south of $100 (it might be the least expensive typewriter sold by Amazon) and when you figure in Amazon's Super Saver Shipping, the price cannot be beat. Recommended!

Review title: Better Late than Never! Product review: I saw a review of one of his newer books and, thinking he was a new writer, looked for it. Then I discovered that he has been published since 1996 and I'd missed him- but I won't let that happen again! This is a first-rate book and, hopefully, series. Kevin Kerney is an intriguing character with lots of layers to be probed. The plot is intriguing although the ending is a bit contrived and the scenery is vivid. I think Kerney is very much like Jake Reacher in the Lee Child's series and I hope he stays that way. An educated and capable vagabond makes a great main character!
