Hi, Shelley, I've never heard of the Duncan McClain series. Is it in the
Bookshare collection? I'm always interested in a good detective story.
Regards, Kim Friedman.

Volunteers' "100 Most Enjoyable Books of all Time"


I have strange tastes when it comes to enjoyable books,

But I liked

The Lord of the Rings by tolkien have read them many times.

The Captain Duncan McClain detective series by Baynard Kendreck

And
Harry Potter, by J.K. Rowling

With the Redwall Series by Brian Jacques coming right behind. there are
other books I have found enjoyable willing to read again, but 
those would be my top three.

If you want the rest am happy to share some of them.
