5.0 out of 5 stars A truly wonderful series! May 15, 2001
By "intentaccess"
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Naked in death starts out a really great series! Nora Roberts writes these under the name of JD ROBB. I did just start this series as I read everything I can get my hands on from Nora. If you are a new reader, you do need to start with this book and work your way through. I didn't start here first and she really builds the characters through each story that if you don't start from the beginning you miss a lot. I went back and am now starting from the beginning. This series is not Nora's romance format. Of course there is romance in there! This series is a mystery style. It takes place in NYC in the year 2058. When people do travel " off planet" and prostitution is legal. Your car drives you and you have " auto chefs " in house, car , even your office. The way ROBB writes about the future this is truly believable. Lt. Eve Dallas is a tough woman. She is strong, independent, and she truly fights and believes in her job as homicide detective. In this book she finds her main suspect a billionaire name Roarke. He is very charming, Irish, has lived a little on the edge, rich, and good-looking! Eve has now found her match. Roarke didn't have the ideal childhood either and they make the most wonderful couple. This is an excellent series, and keeps you entertained and you don't want to put the book down. Robb does a great job in making the who done it a total surprise! I highly recommend this entire series you will truly be delighted It is awesome!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars The beginning of a great series October 14, 2000
By Marcia L. Hopkins
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The "...in Death" series starts with Naked in Death a futuristic series set in New York City in the year 2058. The star of the series is Lt. Eve Dallas a tough as nails female homicide detective who fights for the rights of the victims of murder.

Eve finds the main murder suspect, a billionaire named Roarke who walks a fine line between legal and illegal, to be just a little bit too attractive for her comfort. He's Irish, gorgeous, and very charming.

This series is written by Nora Roberts under the name J.D. Robb. Don't confuse the romance novels usually written by Ms. Roberts with this series. The "...in Death" series is a far cry from her usual romance story. The series is excellent and I would recommend you read all the books beginning with this one, Naked in Death.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is unbelievable! August 5, 1999
By A Customer
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I could not put this book down. Eve and Roarke are the hottest couple in print today. I love the mystery but I love the romance even more. These two are so hot I'm surprised the book doesn't go up into flames in my hands. I have reread Naked In Death at least three times and it never gets old. The whole series is great but start with Naked and go in order because it's better that way. Roarke is the ideal lover. Rich, powerful, dangerous, sexy and totally in love with Eve Dallas. Now that is one lucky woman! Eve is a great heroine. She is smart, brave, independent and loyal. At the same time she has a past that makes her vulnerable, too. She is a real person not some flat character. I can not wait for Loyalty In Death to come out. The only bad thing is I finish them so fast. Keep writing about Eve and Roarke, Nora Roberts. Your fans will be forever grateful.

I love her books and will probably eventually purchase e-copies of all of them, even though the process of curling up with the physical book is still more attractive.

Roarke
Roarke is actually his last name, not first (as his father was Patrick Roarke). :) I believe Nora (Robb) was quoted at some point, saying that we will never find out what Roarke's first name is. It hasn't been revealed in any of the books thus far. Hope this helps.

In Death series
If you go to www.jdrobb.com you will be able to see information about the entire series. There is a list of the books starting with the most recent and going down to the oldest books. Just start at the bottom and read up!

Enjoy!

Kindle version of Naked in Death is $7.99 Paperback: $4.95
I too wish that the Kindle version matched the pb version.
I often pay full price for new releases and don't mind doing it.
But the in-death series has 40?? titles in the series.
It would be wonderful if the publishers would give reader/fans a
break on a nice in death bundle. Maybe 4/5 titles... Read more

What is It?
It's the first two books of the "In Death" series: "Naked in Death" and "Glory in Death." Hope this clears it up. I found the information by enlarging the picture on the amazon page and it's listed at the top, if you want to check for yourself.
