I was pretty tough on Time Bandit , the book written by two of the captains on the TV show "Deadliest Catch" and a pro writer. You could say it was based on expectations. I've read other books ...

I'm about a third of the way through Time Bandit that I got as an ER too. The stories are very entertaining but the style is well awkward.
Picked up 2 copies of Time Bandit last night, signed by Andy and Jonathan Hillstrand at a booksigning at my favorite bookstore. What a great time! They were a lot of fun - talked with everybody, signed books and posters and DVDs. One is for me and the other is a birthday present for my sister.
... of the Deadliest Catch guys. There's another book which came out recently that I just found out about in doing research for Time Bandit that I would love to get, called Deadliest Catch: Desperate Hours. I love when books lead to more books!
I started Time Bandit by Andy and Johnathan Hillstrand this morning.
Finished Time Bandit yesterday and really liked it! I am starting Bridget Jones's Diary today.
... and Selected Poems by Larry D. Thomas
Next should be Time Bandit , my Early Reviewer book. But, now I have all these new books...
I'm about halfway through my ER book, Time Bandit by Andy Hillstrand and Johnathan Hillstrand.
9. Time Bandit By Johnathan and Andy Hillstrand
Picking back up Keeping Faith almost done with it. Next moving on to Change of Heart for some reason I am stuck on Jodi Picoult novels. Thats ok after these two i think I will move back to Native Son or Island of Dr.Moreau.

I'm reading my ER book Time Bandit , so far I'm finding it a very good read.
ETA: I thought Mistbor was an excellent book.

I was in the book store the other day and saw a stack of Time Bandit on the shelf. I am eagerly awaiting this to arrive in the mail. Should make an excellent companion to Deadliest Catch which I love to watch every week. Hope it comes soon.
A birthday coupon took me to Borders today where I bought Time Bandit by the brothers Hilstrand--because I used to fish in New England--City of the Century by Donald Miller, Sudden Sea by R. A. Scotti, and Running for the Hills by Horatio Clare.
Then to the library to get ...
I got a copy of Time Bandit by Andy Hillstrand and his brother Johnathan. I'm really excited about reading the book. I am a big fan of Deadliest Catch.
I'm getting Time Bandit and am happy about that. My husband will probably enjoy reading it as well.
... waiting on Victor Kugler: The Man Who Hid Anne Frank from the March Batch. We'll see which gets here first, that one or Time Bandit from this batch!
I was wrong. I got Time Bandit but it was one I really wanted, anyway!
I'm so excited! I'm getting Time Bandit by the Hillstrands. I was so shocked that there was even going to be a book, so I'm thrilled I get a copy!
