Decent addition to the Vampire Chronicles
If you've enjoyed previous installments to the Vampire Chronicles, this book should not disappoint you. Armand - a minor yet important character previously appearing in Interview with the Vampire and the Vampire Lestat - now tells his story in this novel. It is explained how he came to be part of the underworld vampires (poor kid) and before that, how he came to live with Marius. While not the ...

Margaret Weis Productions, 2009

Not An Expert Review, But Here It Is...
Here's my review for the Supernatural Role-Playing Game: GENERAL LAYOUT/DESIGN I'm very satisfied with the design work and layout of the rulebook. It definitely feels like you're looking through hunters' notes. It has some really cool newspaper clippings and random notes. RULES/CONTENT The rulebook covers all the basic rules including simple/complex actions, combat, and character ...

Doreen Virtue, Angelic Realm

Hay House, 1997

Changing Negative Thought Patterns Through Angel Therapy
I found Doreen Virtue's Angel Therapy to be an inspiring guide to contacting the benevolent form of oneself and higher, angelic beings. These guides exist to assist each individual's journey toward such various aims as purity, health, creativity, life purpose, and, of course, love. To cite an example, Doreen Virtue explains, being a psychologist, that one should learn to monitor his/her ...

The Oath

42 reviews
John Lescroart

Signet, 2003

A satisying read
This is a good book. What is a good book? It is one in which the characters are sufficiently fleshed out, the plot moves along with at least a few twists and turns, but the author does not pull unfair "fast ones" with the reader. It is a book that I put in a pile of "good reads" for my friends. It would be nicer for the author if everyone went out and bought the book, but some books are not ...

The Year 1000: What Life Was Like at the Turn of the First Millennium

100 reviews
Robert Lacey, Danny Danziger

Back Bay Books, 2000

that was then, and explains a lot about why this is now
What a delightfully informative little book! I don't know how they crammed so much information into just 200 pages (reminds me of Cod: A Biography of the Fish That Changed the World and this one doesn't have recipes). The authors take something called the Julius Work Calendar, a medieval daily reminder of work and faith to illustrate life in Anglo-Saxon England. Did you know July was ...

Parker J. Palmer

Jossey-Bass, 2004

Living with Integrity
Parker Palmer takes the title of this book from Thomas Merton who claimed that "There is in all things...a hidden wholeness." Parker draws on his own experiences and work with educators, clergy, politicians, community organizers, parents, doctors, lawyers, and people of other walks of life to build "circles of trust" where the shy soul can speak its own truth with conviction without denying the ...

The Norman Conquest of Southern Italy and Sicily

5 reviews
Gordon S. Brown

McFarland & Company, 2003

Learn about the "other Norman Conquest"
This is a fascinating account of how a group of Normans found their way to southern Italy at about the same time as another group was conquering England, and within half a century had prevailed over Lombards, Saracens, Byzantium, and the Papacy to establish themselves as the dominant power in the region. A little-known story, which should be of interest to history buffs, anyone wanting to know ...

The Complete Star Wars Trilogy Scrapbook: An Out of This World Guide to Star Wars, the Empire Strikes Back, ...

6 reviews
Mark Cotta Vaz

Scholastic, 1997

Small book BIG memories! A real Star Wars scrapbook
Ok yes it has great pictures. Yes it covers Episodes IV, V, and VI. Glossy pictures (some I haven't seen anywhere else) and nice tidbits of background lore. It even alludes to Episodes I, II, and III. It says ages 9-12 but I even liked it (ok 44 year old Sci-fi fan). A real bargain for the price and a nice summary of the Trilogy. I would put it up there with the Star Wars Visual Dictionaries for ...

Donald Matthew

Cambridge University Press, 1992

A synthetic resource
Matthew's history is precise and helpful in arranging the massive amounts of information lying in archives throughout the whole of southern Italy and Sicily. His command of the languages necessary to conducting scholarship in this field is nothing short of extraordinary, and preceisely what Medieval Italian studies needs. His ability to synchronize the material into some navigable whole is ...

Gordon P. Hugenberger

Baker Academic, 1998

Comprehensive review of all relevant material
Hugenberger's mastery of all scholarship on the issue of marriage in the Bible and in the ancient near east is extremely impressive. Every argument in the book is well thought out and proven; every counter point that may be raised is present. This book is invaluable for a scholar wishing to deal with the particular issues of Biblical marriage as well as the broader topic of biblical law and ...

Art of Noir: The Posters And Graphics From The Classic Era Of Film Noir

12 reviews
Eddie Muller

Overlook Hardcover, 2002

A Gem of the Field
Film noir is a fascinating field with a deserved faithful and ever widening audience. Eddie Muller scored impressively with "Dark City Dames," a study of the women of film noir with intimate portraits of such notables as Jane Greer, Marie Windsor and Ann Savage. Muller returns to a familiar theme here and achieves mightily in two respects, with glossy pictures which practically jump off the ...

Connie Clark

Peace Hill Press, 2005

Great Kids Book
I bought this book because Ethelred the Unready is an ancestor of mine and I didn't know much about him. I plan on passing this book to my grandchildren so they can be knowledgeable of one of their direct line "great-grandfathers".
