Free book giveaway and Dirk Pitt.

I recently started reading a book about a character named “Dirk Pitt.” If you thought to yourself, “Dirk Pitt? Let me guess, he’s like an American James Bond and he lives in an old airplane hanger and he collects classic cars and shrugs off bullets and ladies love him and he can also probably use a sword if forced to?” If you had that exact thought, then whoa. That’s pretty dead on.

Dirk Pitt is such a stereotypical “male hero” figure that I probably wouldn’t be surprised if in one chapter he picks up a bunch of bullets and throws them so hard with his hand that they pierce a tank. That’s just how Dirk Pitt gets down. Look at that name, you know he can’t be a pencil pushing cubicle dweller. He probably punched the doctor out cold with a ridiculous right hook when he was born. This is Dirk Pitt.

The best thing? There are approximately 97 Dirk Pitt novels. Clive Clusser has been Lahaying those things left and right. I was so happy to realize that there were a dozen other books to read that starred the same character.

And now, to the question of the day, has that ever happened to you?

Has there ever been a book you wish had a part two? Like “Son of Screwtape Letters” Was there ever a book you read and thought “I loved that book, I wish there was a sequel?” Like “Return to Blue Like Jazz?”

In honor of that question, author Jason Boyett is going to give three randomly selected winners a copy of one of his new books. Speaking of things you wish there were more of, he wrote a pocket guide series and has the following titles: The Pocket Guide to Sainthood, the Pocket Guide to the Afterlife, and the Pocket Guide to the Bible. Comment with an answer to the question below until Tuesday, September 15.

What book did you read that you loved so much you wish there was a part two?
