I cant say enough about how much I liked this book. All 5 stories "From a View to a Kill","For Your Eyes Only ","Quantum of Solace ","Risico" and "The Hildebrand Rarity" are excellent and left me wanting more. A+ highly recommended

Skull and Bones by John Drake. One in a series of prequels to Treasure Island. Good stuff.

I found that one quite interesting. Not a great book, but I did quite enjoy the finale.

Did definitely go against the trope of "bad King endings" lol. It took a long time to get to where the story starts, but yeah that finale was pretty damn good.

I will admit to enjoying the Mr. Mercedes trilogy (even Finders Keepers, which I know got some flak). It's different than his usual style, but I dug it.

What flack did Finders Keepers get? I'm pretty unaware. I know there was a series with Brendan Gleesan (pretty well cast as Bill, imo, though I have to admit I picture Ray Winstone as I read it), but I avoided it, choosing to read it first.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner.
I don't want to potentially spoil anything, but some readers of Finders Keepers found aspects of the first half of the book dull.
That's the vaguest I can get and almost answer you.

Ah. Well, I'm sure I'll survive lol.
Just finished Mr Mercedes this morning. Will most likely fill in some other books before getting to Finders Keepers.
