Barry Hoffman - Hungry Eyes (already forgot what this one was about)
David Wellington - Monster Planet (Book 3 - Monster Trilogy) (good)
David Wellington - Monster Nation (Book 2 - Monster Trilogy) (good)
David Wellington - Monster Island (Book 1 - Monster Trilogy) (good)
Darwin E. Coon - Alcatraz: The True End of the Line (waste of time)
