cmw119's review against another edition
1.0
Man this was bad. I loved the CSI:NY show, all the characters, the intrigue, the crime-solving. This book had none of that. The writing was just poor, and three different cases were too many for print. I kept expecting them to all connect at the end and they didn’t. Glorified fanfics should probably stay on the internet.

Deluge by Stuart M.Kaminsky
I'm a massive fan of CSI, even if CSI:NY isn't my favourite, so when I realised there were accompanying books I leapt at the chance. Kaminsky knows what the characters are like and how they speak. It's evident he's researched the show. It was great reading new stories about some of my favourite characters. Overall, they're a good, easy read that require practically no imagination because you already know the people and their history. This was one of the better CSI books. I think it's because there are several cases going on, like an actual episode rather than just one or two. However, I did some of the suspects, victims and witnesses mixed up, as in, which case they belonged to.
