Which Book - Paradis or Destiny?
Which book is Richard's 4th - Paradis or Destiny? I have been away from reading due to eye problems and want to read more of his wonderful stories...

Muffit, Paradis is the fifth book, and Destiny the sixth.
The fourth book was Rebellion.
Best,
Peter

Rebellion was a bit of a jumble (I think that was the one the first draft got published). Paradis and Destiny are both pretty good though Destiny is better edited. I think Brad Linaweaver is the best coathor since Chris Golden. Nice prose descriptions of settings and character's emotions.

I have to agree with your assessment of Brad Linaweaver. His books with RIchard have been the best since Chris Golden...

The best place to get the books is from an Amazon seller. Usually you can find them for real cheap prices...
I tell you one thing, you'd better read Paradis before Destiny because the new book picks up right after the story and is very detailed. I had to go back and reread the end of Paradis just to make sure where I was!!!

Hey all ................
I got done reading Armageddon and am halfway through Warhawk which I am told Richard's Second Comming trailer was based on. I like it! So far I think it has been good reading and captivating. It has the start of explanations for things that I wondered about. I think  so far....in case anyone was wondering.........
