The Woman with the Alabaster Jar: Mary Magdalen and the Holy Grail

Thought-provoking book
I had already read other books dealing with the sacred feminine and Mary Magdalene, such as "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" and "The Da Vinci Code" and I really enjoyed this book. It really made me think about the whole idea of the wholeness of God, and the idea that a masculine God completely limits the deity. It's amazing how humans, in trying to make God into their own image, limits the deity into a ...

Good for fans, great as an introduction!
First, a confession ... I am a huge Caitlin R. Kiernan fan. Having said that, and adding that I own as many of her books and short-story collections as I could get my hands on, I can tell you that this is easily my favorite book by this author! For long time fans, it's a fantastic addition. It adds to the growing mythos and explores one of the most fascinating characters that Kiernan has ever ...

Wonderful story for Christmastime or anytime
This is a fabulous book that brings to mind the wonder of Christmas through a child's eyes. The illustrations are beautiful and the story is timeless and unforgettable! I read this story to my children, ages 11, 8, and 4, each year around Christmas. I even read it to my MOPS group as a Christmas reading last year. Thank you, Max Lucado, for another wonderful children's book!

Very Well Written!
Highland Call is a spectacular book filled with adventure, romance, and suspense. I have read books of all kinds and I must say this is one that I come back to time and time again. Ms. Gillenwater develops the characters in such a way that you feel like they are your good friends. You care about what happens to each and every one of them. Unlike secular romance, Highland Call enforces good ...

A large cut above
Edward Bolme brings to life another wonderful novel with this story based in the Forgotten Realms. This is not simply just another adventure tale (though it is also that) set in a complex political/religious city, but part mystery and part life lesson as well. Ed weaves a complex tale of a land fighting to maintain its own existence amidst a choatic background of both religious and political ...

A true poetic genius and visionary
I've collected interviews with Li-Young Lee and attended two of his workshops in the last seven years and this book is the culmination of his poetic strategies, efforts, and vision. I was hoping to see the interviews I've enjoyed reading in this book and WAS NOT disappointed. If anything, this book shows I'm not the only one who has enjoyed Lee's voice and positive attitudes about writing ...

The Riddle of Alabaster Royal (Regency Romance)

A Jolly Good Book
Perhaps I am partial to the Riddle of Alabaster Royal because it is the first Veryan book I read. But I really thought it was good. I suppose it is more of a mystery than a romance, but that doesn't make it a bad book. The story is of Captain Jack Vespa, a wounded soldier just returned home. Wishing to recover from his wounds in peace, he leaves the London and goes to a country estate left to him ...

A WORK IN THE GRAIN OF
Some books still matter--even greatly--although generally they're not the ones you'll have heard about. In our grim day, if a book is visible enough for it to be on your radar, the chances are high that it's a product of the enemy--of the culture of fraud and prefab lies, of the "official" and "acceptable" culture, the never-quite-the-real-thing culture of the New York Times, just say, and of the ...

The first in a series of books about law schools and the US
It's hard to review an achievement such as Lawrence Velvel's tetrology "Thine Alabaster Cities Gleam" but suffice it to say, the struggles to create a law school"for the people" are portrayed in these books in exquisite detail. This is the first in a series of four books, and by far the best in terms of being a critique of of pretense and the internecine fights in academia. The character of the ...

another great first book
It is always a joy to me when I come across a great poet's first book. Finding a good collection of contemporary poetry can be difficult, and finding one that is the poet's first book gets downright hard. Luckily I found Jennifer Reeser's first book. This book has it all: beautiful language, a wide range of subjects, and technical prowess. She writes lyrics, dramatic monologues, and narratives. ...
