more catch up

These novels could all be classifed as action, adventure, suspense and intrigue.  They could also be catagorized as the good, the bad, and the ugly.  THE RULE OF NINE by Steve Martini, (Morrow,978-0-06-193021-80, THE HOLY THIEF by William Ryan, (Minataur, 978-0-312-38645-40), JUDGEMENT AND WRATH by Matt Hilton,(Morrow,978-0-06-171813-7), THE MULLAH'S STORM by Thomas W. Young,(Putnam,978-0-399-15692-2), WARLORD by Ted Bell, (Morrow, 978-0-06-202059-80.) are included. 
I always enjoy Steve Martini's books that feature Paul Madriani as an attorney who is his own man and marches to his own drum.  This time the case involves a young man who inadvertently helps in an attack on our government 's Supreme Court.  The attack is carried out by an Old Weatherman who wants to destroy what he sees as a right wing conspiracy.  And that is not the only conspiracy available.  And of course no one is as he pretends to be and most lives would best be left uninvestigated. In chasing down this suspect, Madriana also has to deal with a killer from his last case who is involved in this one and deal with a few personal demons.  Suspenseful and has enough feel of the current times to make one say what if to some of the characters.  This is the good of the lead in. 
I'llbe back... talking about another book that, although really violent, has its moments.,
