I'd suggest starting at one of his earlier books, since they do build upon one another, and Dave's life, family and friends also grow and change.

They are very readily available thru libraries and bookstores.

I also enjoy the Dave Robicheaux series in audio. Actually, I prefer to listen to books cause it gives me more time to read - on the way to/from work, while gardening, working out, etc.

One of my most favorite series in audio: The Sookie Stackhouse Southern Vampire series - excellent to listen to. Johanna Parker does a great job on all of the voices - and the characters come to "life"! Fun, addictive series - highly recommend. I just finished the last book - I read/listened to them in quick succession, and I'm feeling a void now.

I've just finished the 7th book in the Women's Murder Club series by James Patterson - also good in audio.

Will be interested to hear other's favorites...
