Outstanding!
As a fan of Star Wars I was not disappointed by this book. Without giving much away, it really captured the feel of Star Wars for me with high action, comedy, some drama, and the occasional serious overtones. It both entertained me and made me think a little. It has some interesting plot points which make you think and creates a mystery type feel to the book. I'd highly recommend this to ...

Fun read
As a person who had never read these comics before, I thought they were great. Especially since they lumped them all together like this. I'm sure it will be a while before they make an Omnibus out of them, but all in all the storyline was good and the artwork was enjoyable as well. Set back in the Mandalorian Wars, really right at the beginning, it has all new characters and races and is ...

Another great rambling Doyle Story
First let me tell you that I am a friend with the author, however, I found this book to be one of his best. Doyle must have inherited the Irish tradition of story telling from his parents. I enjoy his writing style and the ability for him to celebrate the miniscule is wonderful. The undercurrent of Christian spirituality is evident in the stories that he tells. Did he really find the best ...

Keeping Employees Accountable for Results: Quick Tips for Busy Managers

Easy to Use Handbook
Accountability is essential to individual and organizational success, but few leaders know how to make it happen. Consequently, accountability remains at too high a level-far away from the people who really should be accountable for their work. Managers spend far too much of their valuable time chasing after details, progress reports, and hope-it-got-done worries. If there were a way to calculate ...

Great Book
This is a great book. When I wanted to learn about computer coloring back in '95, I had the pleasure of corresponding with or talking directly to two influential individuals in the industry. The first was Brandon Petterson and the second was Brian Miller. After finding out that he was from my neck of the woods (the midwest-St. Louis to be exact), we had a very pleasant conversation at Wizard ...

Hilarious sophomore effort
The first story arc of many comic books tends to be rather lifeless. The authors generally write them not as self-contained stories, but as a writer's guide establishing the major characters, settings, and situations that will carry on for years, if not decades. The first volume of Dark Horse's KOTOR was as origin stories go fairly entertaining. Despite having the aroma and flavor of Lucas ...

Great follow-up, with one added bonus
This book is similar to Miller's first book of teambuilding activities. Once again, all the activities are quick, easy to manage and require few props. Even though I really liked his first book and go to it frequently, I was a bit reluctant to pick this second one up, fearing that maybe these activities weren't on par with the first volume. I was wrong. They are every bit as fun and effective ...

Top-Down approach is very useful
I recommend this book because I find it easy to read. The top down approach helped me understand the subject matter. Introduction chapters were very helpful to get me started and the details came in later chapters. I had no issues with C# code examples. I recommend this book because I find it easy to read.

the series is improving
Well, after the third book i can rate the book one higher. Maybe it was John Miller or maybe I'm just getting into the character, or maybe i've invested so much time i'm curious as to how the story will end. I think the reason I like this book better was the samurai world. Leigh never makes the mutata or the gairk understandable to the reader, at least with the samuria, we alreardy have an ...

Wonderful book....
Nothing fascinates the student of American history quite like the Civil War and this book, with it's beautiful illustrations and illuminating essays, does much to bolster that fascination. Readers are introduced to the Civil War's unforgettable cast of characters: Lee, Jackson, Grant, and even the nameless legions of soldiers whose faces grace the photographs and whose courage and determination ...

now in VB.NET - and for version 1
I reviewed the orginal version of this book which was in C#. I've been lucky enought ot get my hands on the new VB.NET edition and it is even better than the original. I am more used to VB as it is, and I spent quite a lot of time translating some of the code snippets in the original, but now I don't have to! The book has changed a bit, it looks better than the first edition, and it is now ...
