The Passage by Justin CroninThe Passage by Justin Cronin
Local Houstonian and Rice Professor Justin Cronin makes one of the biggest splashes in the publishing world in years with The Passage, already hailed by Stephen King, Times Magazine, and the New York Times Book Review (among many others) as one of the best books of the year. The Passage follows a band of survivors years in the future as they battle to survive against virals, vampire-like killers in a post-apocolypic America.

The Glass RainbowThe Glass Rainbow by James Lee Burke
Dave Robicheaux is back and embroiled in one of the most dangerous cases of his career. Seven women have been murdered in a nearby parrish, and although all signs seem to point to a serial killer, Robicheaux isn't convinced. First editions signed on the title page ($25.99)
