Suspense Fiction Books: The Joys Of Imaginary Worlds Filled With Action And Adventure.
Suspense fiction books are in many respects the perfect choice for a book lover. Let’s face it: If you live out there in an average house in the average suburb, not much ever happens in your life. You go to work every day, come home, watch TV, eat, sleep, then go back to work. And Saturdays you work in the garden and watch the sports channel.
To sit down, put your feet up and read a good suspense story will immediately transfer you to a world far from the mundane life of the suburbs. A world of glitzy women, debonair men and high speed car races. A world where more happens during the average hour than you normally experience in a year.
Ever since the first spy story was published many years ago, it has been a favorite of readers of suspense stories all over the world. Although we can’t all be members of the secret service and regularly save the the world from being destroyed by an evil genius, a good spy story let us be part of that world for a couple of hours. A further appeal of this type of book lies in the exotic sounding locations in which many of these stories take place. Places with names like Fez or Zanzibar, that conjures up images of sultans and harems and beautiful temptresses.
The detective novel is another evergreen. The suspense this type of tale can create is quite astounding. First there will be a party with all the rich and famous in attendance. Then there will be a murder. And out of the blue there will be this quirky old detective asking all the right questions to systematically eliminate the suspects until there are only a few left. The suspense will grow even thicker when you realize the butler also had a motive….
The thriller is not for everyone. This very special type of suspense story provides adrenalin rushes and sleepless nights unlimited. Often there will be a deserted old ghost house. Somewhere nearby will be a lake. And on the way to the lake will be dark, misty moors where unimaginable creatures lurk at night and watch the inhabitants of the house, waiting for the right moment. If suspense is what you want, the really good suspense writers will scare the wits out of you.
Then we have the alien invaders. Scary stories of creatures from planets far beyond our solar system who have only one thing in mind: the destruction of earth. Sometimes they look exactly like us, which makes it very hard to spot one. Whatever the aliens look like, the best of these books will keep you entertained for many hours.
Suspense fiction books will probably be around for many centuries to come. Our children and grandchildren might not read them in paperback format; they will be captivated and glued to their electronic screens, but the emotions they go through will be the same as ours today.
