The student who introduced me to to Relic years ago was male, and several of his friends had also read it. The series appeals to both genders...which is nice because then you can talk about them or refer to them.

I've read all of their books and am just waiting for the latest one to come out in paperback. I'm geeky and I'm proud of it. What really is amazing is that my husband reads them as well. Enough of a Sherlock Holmes flavor to them I guess.

Some have connections to the previous books, but some are pretty much stand alone. Even the ones that are connected don't require knowledge of the previous books. Evidently The Wheel of Darkness is the third in a group of 3 that deals with Pendergast and his brother, but I had no difficulty withit.<BR/><BR/>Marie -- :) They are fun, aren't they? I really wonder if when they wrote Relic, they intended for Special Agent Pendergast to lead them through eleven more books.jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-12590331241984066812007-12-31T10:43:00.000-06:002007-12-31T10:43:00.000-06:00They are one of my all time favorite author pairs!...They are one of my all time favorite author pairs!
