Bill's and Jack Davis's Carter is a pretty good one in the
series. The best one I've read in the series is Randisi's
"The Greek Summit". Michael Collins's (or his wife's, as
Hawk's pseudonyms says) books in the series are also good.
The one I've read from Stokes was very very very weird and
maybe funny, too.
But what's this about Swain's "Bring Back My Brain"? I've
been doing some research about Swain, do tell me more!
