- Glory in Death
Excellent story, quick moving, written well. I couldn't put it down and read the entire book within the first 24 hours of having it.

Rating:

- one of the best of the series
Absolutely wonderful. Excellent. Glory in Death is one of the best books of the series. Deeply emotional, it's almost painful to re-read.

There's a masterful balance between the romance and the suspense, and the emotions are spread out through the entire cast of the book.

The characters, and not just the main ones, are well-developed, and the main characters themselves are so real in this one that it makes them seem somewhat flat in other books.

Eve and Roarke go through so much emotional pain to connect, and Roarke is unusually vulnerable and human here.

Rating:

- Decent
Glory wasn't a bad read, save for some of the "cop talk" that sounded like it was stolen from bad television shows. Roarke was decidedly less creepy in this volume, and that was actually quite nice. The mystery and the romance were okay, but not spectacular. This was a fluff read, and there's nothing wrong with a bit of brain candy sometimes.

- Another great book in the series.
I have read the first book in the series "Naked In Death", and now have read the second, "Glory In Death". I found "Glory" to be just as good as I found "Naked" to be. Filled with deep characters, fast moving cases, and an interesting sci-fi futuristic backdrop, this series is a winner.

Like some reviewers have already stated, this is a mix of Police Procedural, Romance, and Science Fiction all bundled up into one great series.

Each book you learn more and more about the main characters, and can watch their relationships grow.

I definitely plan on reading all of this series.

I would start with book one and move on from there. That's what I'm doing.

Happy Reading!

- Solid follow-on
Glory in Death is the second book in J.D. Robb/Nora Roberts's 'in death' series. The series employs a shamelessly over-the-top homicide detective & erotic romance combination to wonderfully fun effect.

On the one hand, the answer to the murder in this novel seemed a bit obvious to me early on; it was telegraphed a little more heavily than usual. On the other hand, Roberts managed to make me doubt my conclusions by throwing a few curve-balls into the mix, and that helped to keep me from feeling the kind of frustration I usually feel when it seems as though the mystery is revealed to the reader too early.

Eve and Roarke's relationship continues and deepens in enjoyable ways. It's still early enough that there are serious conflicts and sparks, but they're turning ... Read More
