Golden Prey | John Sandford
30 posts | 27 read | 9 to read
Lucas Davenports first case as a U.S. marshal takes him into unexplored territory, in the thrilling new novel in the #1 New York Timesbestselling Prey series. Thanks to some very influential people whose lives hes saved, Lucas Davenport has a new job. He is a U.S. marshal, but not just any marshalone with unusual scope. He gets to investigate whomever he wants, wherever he wants, across the country, and once in a while, he might be called upon for special cases. How special? They couldnt come from anyone higher. But his first case is something different. A rash of audacious robberies reminds Davenport of a criminal he once chased several years ago, the leader of a gang focused only on large cash crimes, and who didnt mind leaving bodies behind. The last time he was heard from, a shootout left two FBI men dead, and now Davenport thinks the leader might be back. Davenport knows this is the kind of investigation hes been hired to pursue, and he knows something else as well: This could get ugly fast . . . so hed better be up to it.

Adore this series and this book didn't disappoint. I've never become so attached to a main character as I have with Lucas Davenport apart from Harlan Coben's, Myron Bolitar.
Davenport has just become a US marshal and his first mission is full throttle and very enjoyable.

Andrew65 Got to love Myron (and Win)! 6y
suzie.reads Yeah Harlan Coben is my favourite author but Davenport just pips Myron for me haha 6y

2017 #91 Pulp Fiction Audio I don't know why I am keeping up with this series but it was fluffy and ok. Well read but the plot was just meh.

When I am in the mood for a book that reads like an action movie with some snarky dialogue, I pick up a Sandford novel. In the latest addition to the series, Davenport is now a US Marshal, so this one is not set in Minnesota. Fun read.

I liked where this book took the character of Lucas Davenport. After 27 prey novels, I had begun to feel that we couldn't see anything more from his character that interested me. I was glad to see the author took him in a different direction. That being said I felt it still fell a bit short.

Lucas Davenport has a new job that is perfect for his skills set. Chasing down Bad guys and Assholes is what he does best, and with his new position as a US Marshall, well, let's just say the Bad guys really don't stand a chance. What a way to keep a character fresh after so many books! ✨👍🏻✨📚📚❤️

John Sanford books are like M&Ms for me. I seek them out & keep going back 'til I'm finished. Essentially the 2 have the same nutritional value. But both are fun, too. Golden Prey not his best but still worth the time. Some real brutality accompanied by tongue in cheek humor. Could have been better edited & dropped 50 pages. And what other police thriller features Donald Judd & Marfa, TX? Lucas Davenport in his US Marshall debut. Go for it, fans.

Random thought for the evening: a Lucas Davenport/Harry Bosch book is something that I would definitely read.

DGRachel Have you read Face-Off? It's a collection of short stories pairing off various well-known detectives. Lucas isn't paired with Bosch, though. Instead, Sandford teamed up with Jeffrey Deaver, so you get Lucas and Rhymes, but overall the collection was enjoyable. 7y
Suetara @DGRachel I did NOT know about Face-Off, but will be checking it out!! Thanks! 7y

Putnam authors David Joy and John Sandford at The Poisoned Pen Bookstore in Scottsdale, AZ. GOLDEN PREY is Sandford's 27th Prey novel and if you haven't discovered David Joy's WHERE ALL LIGHT TENDS TO GO yet, you're missing out!

This may be my favorite of the entire series! Everything that made me fall in love with the series 20 years ago is here - great characters, thrilling hunt, and sass. So. Much. Snark and Humor. I cannot wait to meet Sandford on Tuesday. He really outdid himself with this one. So much fun. Best book I read this month.

#bestofApril April was not a stellar month for me in terms of quantity and I have three in-progress that may be indefinite DNFs because my migraine addled brain just can't deal with them, but we'll see what happens in May. On the bright side, I really enjoyed most of what I actually finished - five 5-star reads and two 4-star ones. #AprilBookShowers

Andrew65 An excellent month, given the impact the migraines had - well done! 😊 7y
DGRachel @Andrew65 Thanks! Once I let go of the books I'd started but was struggling with and just picked up some fluff, I did better. My stats were looking really sad mid-month. 😂 7y
Andrew65 @DGRachel Nothing wrong with some fluff! 😊 7y

Sitting in my car for a few minutes before freezing in the doctor's office waiting room. Thankfully, he had a cancellation, so I got in to see him. Here's hoping he can do something to break this three week chain of migraines. Photo is my Kindle Touch that I think is @ 6 years old. I have other, newer Kindles, but this is my favorite and in lieu of "real" kids, I'll call this a #sweetchildomine #lyricalapril

jpmcwisemorgan I can relate - I have two Kindle Fires and I still use the oldest one the most. 7y
DGRachel @jpmcwisemorgan I bought a Fire two years ago when they developed the blue light filter and I love it for reading at night, but nothing beats my Touch for reading outside in the day (or in the glare of office fluorescents) 7y
LiteraryinLawrence I hope the doctor has a suggestion for your head. I'm sorry you've been hurting! 7y

Smrloomis Nice! Sorry to hear about the migraines 😣 7y
julesG Hope you got some help for your head. My baby "Touchy" is now my son's kindle, it must also be 6 years old, at least. Had to buy it in the US and then "smuggle" it past customs, because kindle touch weren't yet available in Germany/Europe. 7y
DGRachel @julesG I think it's hysterical that you call it "Touchy". My device name is "My Touchy"! #greatminds 7y

I'm most excited about this new release because John Sandford is FINALLY coming to my side of the country for a book signing and i cannot wait to meet him!! #READATHON2017

Cinsai He finally came to Dallas last year! He gave a great talk, and had a long question and answer portion, before signing. I love him! It was great! ❤️🤗 7y

My current #autobuyauthors pre-orders. I have a couple of new series on my TBR, and I have high hopes that those will become auto-buy authors, too. #marchintoreading
And even though I don't have anything pictured here, if Sharon Kay Penman ever writes another book, you'd better believe I'll buy it!

TrishB She has nearly finished! Had lots of health issues (she posts on fb!) But its nearly there. Set in Jerusalem around one of the Crusades 😀 7y
