Review: Loving the Bill Travis series
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 08 5, 2012
I have been devouring the entire Bill Travis series by George Wier with gusto...and a couple of longnecks if I'm honest. I am reviewing each book individually, but I've been reading the first four from the Bill Travis Omnibus for Kindle. Longnecks & Twisted Hearts is a good one and perhaps as a stand alone novel this would rate five stars, but in comparison to The Last Call and Capital Offense it warrants four stars. Why? The other two books were faster, longer and funnier. Longnecks is not lacking by any means, but it's definately darker than the first two books and takes some emotional turns that were a tad unexpected. The characters were fascinating and once again, they all felt slightly familiar in a way that Texans from small towns can relate to. I did very much like the core mystery in this book. I'm off to read book four in the series now and that's saying something! I normally will move on to something else and come back to a series after a few weeks, but the truth is, I can't wait to see what happens next to Bill, Julie and Uncle Nat!
