I always like reading these books. I like the Dr. Brennen in the books a lot more than in the tv series. It seems like they're 2 totally different persons.

I enjoyed this installment much more than the previous book in the series. Great characters, great storyline, great action.

I’m mainly just following along for the Detective Ryan subplot and hoping for another main plot that grabs my interest.
Book four had a fantastic main plot, but these last two books lacked the tension and pacing that Fatal Voyage produced.

Kathy Reichs published a number of novels about Temperance Brennan before the successful TV series Bones, based on these novels, premiered in 2005.
Bare Bones by Kathy Reichs was the sixth in the series. While I imagine many people came to the TV show after reading the novels, I watched ten seasons of the TV series before reading one of the novels. While the books are well written, I was disappointed.
If you are coming to this book after being a fan of the TV show, be prepared to be disappointed by the limited range of the book. While the TV show felt like something special, the books though well-written, but ordinary mysteries.
