Read Thief of Light. Loved it. Knew his next book was on the way. Worth the wait. Compelling and frightening. One would had to have lived this to write so convincingly. Looking forward to his next book.

Excellent thriller with historical and artistic contexts
11 Dec 2001
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is an extremely enjoyable thriller, the kind that makes you not want to put it down. Although the main protagonist, Wil, is not very likable and it's difficult to sympathize with him, the story is propelled by the evil deeds that he faces and the desire to unravel the mystery. I liked how David Ramus put to use his knowledge of art and art history. It was enough for a layman to comprehend and to keep it interesting, but was not overdone. My favorite aspect was how historical deeds, during the Spanish Civil War, were brought forward into the present day. Reminiscent, for example, of the movie "Marathon Man." David Ramus is a very good writer and I highly recommend this book. It's about time it was added to the US Amazon web page!

Books by David Ramus
13 Aug 2000
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I just finished "Gravity of Shadows". I have now read all three of David's books and ALL are wonderfully written and very suspenseful. I knew David in his other life and had no idea he was such a fine writer or even a writer at all. I cannot wait for his fourth. I hope there will be one and I wish him well.
