I need to get back and restart The Amber Room. It's about one of the subject I'm intrigued by. I've started it two or three time, but never managed to get more than a handful of chapters into it, which I find strange. I really liked The Alexandra Link. Amber is one of a dozen or so books I held back when I packed up my library earlier this year. I'll have to re-try it during my house repairs.

Mike, I think you will like "The Amber Room". That was the first book I read by Steve Berry and I continue to read his books. I liked it that Steve told at the end of the book some of the history in his book really happened. I learned things I didn't know.
Before reading "The Amber Room" I read "Amber Beach" by Elizabeth Lowell. I loved learning about the amber in "Amber Beach". Then in sequence I read her next book "Jade Island" and learned a lot about jade. Then pearls in "Pearl Cove" and rubies in "Midnight in Ruby Bayou". I recommended these books to friends and family and that they be read in that order. My friends and family liked them too.
I liked "The Amber Room" but I liked "Amber Beach" better.
