Agent Zigzag: A True Story of Nazi Espionage, Love, and Betrayal22 reviews
Ben Macintyre

Three Rivers Press, 2008

Total satisfaction
What a pleasure to sit down with 'Agent Zigzag'. It makes you never want to pick up another spy novel in your life, so extraordinary and particular are the experiences of Zigzag, aka, Eddie Chapman. It's the little things that convince. Without giving anything away, who knew that the British Intelligence services wasted time looking for 'Bobby the Pig' when Bobby the pig was simply Chapman's ... 		  
  







  
  
Secret Agent 666: Aleister Crowley, British Intelligence and the Occult1 review
Richard B. Spence

Feral House, 2008

A one-of-a-kind portrait, and worthy inclusion to shelves chronicling the history of occult practices
Enhanced with a handful of black-and-white photographs, Secret Agent 666: Aleister Crowley, British Intelligence and the Occult is a biography of Aleister Crowley, the founding father of modern-day occultism. Several other biographies have attempted to capture his life and personality; none of them have taken the in-depth look at his career as a British Intelligence agent that Secret Agent 666 ... 		  
  







  
  
Jeff Herman's Guide to Book Publishers, Editors & Literary Agents 2008: Who They Are! What They Want! How to ...11 reviews
Jeff Herman

Three Dog Press, 2007

Jeff Herman does it again.
Recently, I noticed Jeff's 2008 guide in the reference section of my library. Let's just say I spent a long day at the library (grin) ... and came to Amazon now to post my opinion (and buy one for myself). I have actually corresponded with Mr. Herman based on a question I had in one of his earlier editions. He claimed that 98% of all submissions to agents and editors were rejected. But when ...

Michael Larsen

Sourcebooks, Inc., 2006

How to Get a Literary Agent
As a relatively new author who has recently completed my first novel, I found the book very informative about the process one needs to know and understand to connect with a literary agent. Michael's no nonsense explanation of understanding what agents deal with, what publishers seek, gives the reader a comprehensive idea of the real world of getting your work published. He also illustrates the ... 		  
  







  
  
The Fighting Agents (Men at War (Paperback Jove))17 reviews
W. E. B. Griffin

Jove, 2001

The Fighting Agents - A Great W.E.B. Griffin Starter Series
For those who have not tried W.E.B. Griffin because they don't wish to commit to reading 9 volumes in The Corps or Brotherhood of War series, I highly recommend trying this 4-book series (#1 Last Heroes, #2 Secret Warriors, #3 Soldier Spies, and #4 Fighting Agents). While I would love to see future installments of the Men at War Series, I thought that Griffin does a very good job of "wrapping ... 		  
  







  
  
The Millionaire Real Estate Agent: It's Not About the Money...It's About Being the Best You Can Be!99 reviews
Gary Keller, Dave Jenks, ...

McGraw-Hill, 2004

How to be the best in Real Estate
Gary Keller tells it like it should be. If you have a true servant's heart and want to help people with the skill and knowledge you have as a Realtor, this is the book to read. He gives a number of techniques but ultimately, he makes it clear that you need to want to do what is best for your client - not your pocket. Excellent book, I recommend this to every new agent I work with. Need a plan ...

Fred Burton

Random House, 2008

RICK "SHAQ" GOLDSTEIN SAYS: "I ALREADY BLEW MY CHANCE TO LEARN THE "PAKISTANI-TWO-STEP." "THE TRUTH DOESN'T DANCE!"
This exciting well written memoir by Fred Burton, former Deputy Chief of the Diplomatic Security Service (DSS), the Department of State's counterterrorism (CT) division, is among other things, a detailed look back at all the glaring warning signs and signals America was given years before the catastrophe of 9/11. The author had been a Maryland cop. "He protected his community, loved law ... 		  
  







  
  
2008 Guide to Literary Agents12 reviews
Chuck Sambuchino

Writers Digest Books, 2007

Decent
It helps quite a bit with organizing my marketing and query letters. But many of the agencies mentioned within change policy and/or information too quickly to keep up with. Of course, this isn't the fault of the authors of this, but if you order this make sure that it's only to get the agency's contact information and not for their policy. 		  
  







  
  
The Double Agents: A Men at War Novel (Men at War)72 reviews
W.E.B. Griffin, William E. Butterworth IV

Jove, 2008

Double Agents
Fans of W.E.B.Griffin would welcome the story and action in Double Agents. It is typical of the author's ability to gain and hold the attention of the reader throughout the story. The plot is well thought out and is logical. While reading the book one can easily imagine the action which takes place througout. The theme of the story actually took place during World War II. It tells of one ... 		  
  







  
  
Free Agent Nation: The Future of Working for Yourself55 reviews
Daniel H. Pink

Business Plus, 2002

Motivation to Get Out There
If you've been thinking of going out on your own, Daniel Pink will motivate you. Without writing a motivational book at all, he has succeeded in showing the reader why being a Free Agent is the way to go in the new economy of the 21st Century.

Ann Cameron

Random House Books for Young Readers, 1988

Julian Saves The Day
I enjoyed this book because it was very exciting. The author used vocabulary that was easy for me to understand. The illustrations were very detailed and matched the text. I recommend reading this book. 		  
  







  
  
Secret Agents: The Menace of Emerging Infections19 reviews
Madeline Drexler

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2003

A very thoughtful and thought provoking read
As a neophyte in the understanding of bacteria and infectious desease I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Knowing how fine a line we walk in our symbiotic relationship with bacteria is as frightening as it is fascinating. I belive this book should be required reading in schools.

How to Agent Your Agent15 reviews
Nancy Rainford

Lone Eagle, 2002

It's like being a fly on the wall of a talent agency
As an agent, I have a love/hate relationship with this book. On the one hand, I hate it for exposing so many of my secrets. But on the other hand, I love that it's so direct and honest. Nancy ran her own successful talent agency for many years and she obviously knows what she's talking about. So if you're my client, please don't buy this book. But if you're not, I suggest you pick this one ...

Specific Contents that go straight to the point and excellent for the novice to clearly gain an understanding of the industry from agents point of view. Also Highly rate the Pilot Season Chapter! Great Read.

Outstanding!!
As a new agent, I found this book invaluable to starting my business. The Consultative Real Estate Agent book gives insight not only to the real estate business and how to succeed, but prepares you for different types of people at different stages of transitioning from home to home. After reading other books, training through my company, and feedback from seasoned agents, nothing has prepared me ... 		  
  







  
  
Star Wars The New Jedi Order Agents of Chaos I: Hero's Trial (Star Wars: the New Jedi Order)97 reviews
James Luceno

Del Rey, 2005

Great Solo Adventure
While Hero's Trial, the fourth book in the massive New Jedi Order series and the first in author James Luceno's Agents of Chaos duology doesn't have quite the same epic scope as previous NJO volumes (no planets die in this one), it is still a crucial volume in the series. Essentially, Hero's Trial is a Han Solo adventure, which is fine considering that Han has been more or less MIA during the ...
