After originally appearing in audio form, the award-winning composite novellas The Chopin Manuscript and The Copper Bracelet have finally hit print. To create a "serial thriller" reading experience, each chapter was written by a different author, including Lee Child, Joseph Finder, Lisa Scottoline, and Deaver. Harry Middleton, the hero of both novellas, uncovers terrifying conspiracies that threaten both his family and the world. As the stories progress, each chapter brings a new perspective and level of fun to the story line.Verdict Even though the stories play better on audio than in print, this collection is still worth picking up. It's a joy to see which writer wrote a certain part of the story, and readers will no doubt seek their individual books. Deaver does a phenomenal job of starting the tales and then wrapping up the chaos that ensues. For all popular fiction collections, even if already owned in audio.-Jeff Ayers, Seattle P.L.
