John Grisham - The Rainmaker

Grisham's intricate, spellbinding sixth novel differs from his last few, it's his only book with first-person narration and his first since his debut to be set in a courtroom, but the trademark Grisham touches are in place. Rookie attorney Rudy Baylor is the customary David fighting a legal Goliath (here a multibillion-dollar insurance company), and the suspense builds with impeccable pacing despite workaday prose. When the modestly sized law firm that contracted for his future services unexpectedly merges with a tony Ivy League firm, Rudy finds himself without a job and bankrupt.

Dark MoonDark Moon

It's a story you should embrace as both rousing entertainment and a tribute to his memory.

Dark Moon is nothing less than a masterpiece of the genre. With a uniformly sensitive and heartfelt handling of character, and a theme that broadens the moral simplicity of high-fantasy's workaday good-vs-evil tropes into an understanding that the greatest good and greatest evil often cannot avoid walking hand in hand,  Dark moon(a stand-alone work) is a mighty epic through and through.
