OVERVIEW

What is the purpose of these web pages? I like helping people enjoy their mystery book reading adventures. I have published these pages to help you find resources and to provide insights into some specific books and authors as well as into mystery reading generally.

Check out the "General Helps" page before anything else. Among other things, you'll find...

  • Reference Links: when you want to find
    • All the books by a given author, organized by series and publication order
    • Information on mystery book conferences
    • Lists of award-winning books
    • Where to find book reviews and ratings for mystery books
    • Where to get books (obviously the library and bookstores - but where else?)
    • Where to get answers to deeper questions about various msytery sub-genres
  • Fun Stuff Links: like...
    • Rating forms and checklists
    • Finding and enjoying mystery book groups
    • Mystery book field trip ideas and advice
    • Some mystery book bloggers I like
    • Games and activities

Under "Notes on Authors/Books" you will find a list of authors for which I might have saved some notes or links. These are just authors for which I might have helpful information and should not be considered as my favorite authors. (A link to fav authors is on the "General Helps" page.)

  • Remember, if all you want is an author's website, your best bet is StopYoureKillingMe.com or a Google search. It is difficult to maintain an up to date link for these sites since they change often.

Michael Connelly and Robert Parker are VERY favorite authors among my many favorites. So they each rate their own special page of links and other helps.

If you want links associated with the Manchester Public Library Mystery Book Group, see the link in the right column menu. Although the key resources are still where they have been for three years at least, namely at MysteryBookFan.com/resources
