David Baldacci: On the Web

David is listed among favorite writes in a post titled “Friday Favorites… Authors” on the Nothing Fancy blog.

David Baldacci – I first “discovered” David Baldacci in 1996 when he published his first novel, Absolute Power.  Many of you may remember the movie of the same name, starring Clint Eastwood and Gene Hackman.

David is mentioned in a post titled “Pursuing Your Passion” on the Soulmate blog.

Let me share another example. David Baldacci was a lawyer with a wife and two children. Yet he had a passion to be a writer. Between 10pm and 2am every night, he worked on his writing. He had fun doing this – it wasn’t a chore. He did this for 10 straight years and completed some short stories and screen plays.

David’s latest novel, Divine Justice, is reviewed in a post titled “Where Is Justice” on Cheryl’s Book Nook.

I have to admit that I have not read any of the other books in this series, so I was surprised by how easily I enjoyed this book. I read it in a matter of a few hours. Having said this, I never felt like I had missed too much by not reading the other books. I now want to go back and read all the rest of the books in the Camel Club series.

David’s latest novel, Divine Justice, is recommended on The Recommendation Blog.

If you enjoy a fast-paced suspense, you will definitely like this and probably all of David Baldacci’s books.

David is mentioned in an article titled “Publishing Displays Its Split Personality” in The New York Times.

At the other end of the spectrum was Hachette Book Group, whose Little, Brown and Grand Central Publishing units together represent some of the biggest commercial authors, including David Baldacci, Nelson DeMille and James Patterson, not to mention the category-killing vampire queen, Stephenie Meyer.

David’s novel The Whole Truth is reviewed in a post on the Civilian Reader blog.

Baldacci’s The Whole Truth is a tour-de-force of international intrigue, espionage, corporate greed and manipulation. It will grip you from the very first page. Fifteen novels into his career, Baldacci shows no signs of slowing down or losing his edge. Simply superb.

David’s participation in a radio interview on The Alan Levy Show on Blog Talk Radio is featured in a post titled “Literary Superstar David Baldacci Talks Novels and Non-Profits on ‘The Alan Levy Show.’”

So you can imagine how thrilled we are that David will be stopping into The Alan Levy Show today to chat with Alan Levy, and special co-host Miriam Parker from Hachette Book Group.

The first chapter of David’s latest novel, Divine Truth, is included in a weekly feature called Opening Lines in The Province of British Columbia, Canada, that excerpts the first chapter of recently released books. The Divine Justice excerpt is titled “The Hardest Kill of All — Himself.”

Welcome to Opening Lines, a weekly feature bringing you the first chapters of just-released books. The chapters start in the newspaper and continue online at theprovince.com. Today’s opening lines come from David Baldacci.

David’s latest novel, Divine Justice, is reviewed in a post on Nate’s Library.

Divine Justice is a delightful continuation (maybe conclusion) of the Oliver Stone series. I just loved it. Baldacci has done a really good job ending each volume at a clean and satisfying point.

David’s novel Absolute Power is mentioned in a column titled “The Invisible Woman” in the Howard County Times.

Background actors around here work a lot because David Simon, George Pelecanos and David Baldacci find secrets, sex and sleaze aplenty in the streets and offices of Washington and Baltimore. They paint dark and vivid portraits of these cities and inhabitants in their best-selling books, which are then turned into TV shows (“Homicide: Life on the Streets” and “The Wire”) and a movie (Baldacci’s “Absolute Power”).
