Is 11.22.63 any good (so far)? Was thinking about reading that one next.

only read one so far. I like Clive Cussler books as you canpick them up read them and switch off for a few hours. Think the NUMA files ones are just a way to get back to a younger Dirk Pitt as he made him get older as the books went on.

Re: What are you reading?

I just can't get into John Varleys books at all.

I have read or tried to read The Ophiuchi hotline but I have no idea what it's about. I suspect I gave up on it.

I hope you enjoy it more than I.

Dilli is it just the battery not holding charge? Replacement is reasonably straightforward if you can get someone with a reasonable degree of dexterity to sort it for you.
