Jeffery Deaver is my first favorite author .
His mystery novel is great ,but twist plot in his novel is greater . It's alway shock me .

and Stephen King is my other favorite author . I love his language that he use for narrative and some creative stories from him :D

Hi Rasheed,

it seemed that you know Al Hakeem well, i also recommend the following as they are my favourites:
1- Pygmalion (بجماليون)( it belongs to " mind theatre "= "al masrah al zehni" )
2- A bird from East ( osfour menal shark ).

it would be great, please send it .
and thanks in advance.

it is useless to read an agatha christie novel from first page to last. just read the first ten page and the last two page so u will see the murderer and the whole story. u dont even need to read for learnin about the characters because she introduces them at the beginning of the novel. :)
