Kingdom Come by Jane Jensen is a solid and engaging murder mystery set in Pennsylvania Amish country. I'm over halfway finished, and I haven't felt for a moment like putting the book down and never picking it up again, unlike the novelization of Sins of the Fathers which I found unreadable after only a few pages and abandoned in disappointment after a couple of chapters. Kingdom Come has been out for a year so I am, as usual, late to the party. I ordered the second in the series yesterday along with a Jensen romance novel under the pseudonym Eli Easton about a werehuman dog, called something like Howl at the Moon. Jensen seems to be writing novels at breakneck pace, maybe to pay Pinkerton Road bills. Who knows? Given that she did her damnedest to give Gabriel Knight back to us, I would be ordering the novels regardless of quality; however, I'm pleased to report that Kingdom Come is a treat.

Thanks very much for letting us know about the book. I might have to check it out for myself. And I didn't know about the Eli Easton pseudonym - I will take a look at Amazon. wave

Although I haven't played any of her games, I know they're very popular with Gameboomers. I didn't know till recently that she also writes murder mysteries. I just started reading "Kingdom Come" and am thoroughly enjoying it. A good story, well-written, and engaging. I was surprised to read that Jensen lives in Lancaster County, PA where the story takes place. Highly recommend the book for any fellow murder mystery fans.

Thanks for the information, Sparkle. I consider her one of the best writers in gaming, so I'm sure her novels are terrific as well. I'll have to check them out sometime. smile
