Glory wasn't a bad read, save for some of the "cop talk" that sounded like it was stolen from bad television shows. Roarke was decidedly less creepy in this volume, and that was actually quite nice. The mystery and the romance were okay, but not spectacular. This was a fluff read, and there's nothing wrong with a bit of brain candy sometimes.

I have read the very first book in the series "Naked In Death", and now have read the second, "Glory In Death". I found "Glory" to be just as good as I found "Naked" to be. Filled with deep characters, fast moving cases, and an interesting sci-fi futuristic backdrop, this series is a winner.
Like some reviewers have already stated, this is a mix of Police Procedural, Romance, and Science Fiction all bundled up into one great series.
Each book you learn more and more about the main characters, and can watch their relationships grow.
I definitely plan on reading all of this series.
I would start with book one and move on from there. That's what I'm doing.
Happy Reading!

Glory in Death is the second book in J.D. Robb/Nora Roberts's 'in death' series. The series employs a shamelessly over-the-top homicide detective & erotic romance combination to wonderfully fun effect.
On the one hand, the answer to the murder in this novel seemed a bit obvious to me early on; it was telegraphed a little more heavily than usual. On the other hand, Roberts managed to make me doubt my conclusions by throwing a few curve-balls into the mix, and that helped to keep me from feeling the kind of frustration I usually feel when it seems as though the mystery is revealed to the reader too early.
Eve and Roarke's relationship continues and deepens in enjoyable ways. It's still early enough that there are serious conflicts and sparks, but they're turning into a fantastic team. They have wonderful chemistry that brings both romance and sex alive on the page.
In this novel we meet Peabody, who's still in uniform (later in the series she becomes Eve's partner). I'm curious to read the intervening books, because at the moment I'm having trouble reconciling her current somewhat stern demeanor with her later openness and excitability. I'm looking forward to seeing how she changes over time and goes from one to the other.
In short, this isn't the best of the 'in death' novels, but it's definitely an enjoyable read!

This entire series is great! The characters are compelling and once started, you can't stop reading. I've read them all now and suggest, if possible, to read them in order since there are references to prior incidents from one to the next.
