Dark Horse, 2006

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 ...

This is coffee for America's morning
I always find it interesting how many people will try to detract from these sorts of views. Wake up. My 14 year old read this, along with "The Terrible Truth About Liberals". She looked at me, shrugged her shoulders, and said, "Yeah ... So? Doeasn't everyone already know all of that stuff?" I told her, "No." She promptly wrote a report on this book, along with a report on Mr. Boortz. She was ...

PublishAmerica, 2006

Extraordinary Adventure
Henry is a raconteur extraordinaire and an accomplished wordsmith. It is a pleasure to read his tales of Temple Buck, a character who immediately incites a reader's enthusiasm and affection. This is a fun book to read aloud, with imaginative dialect, riveting narration, and abundant description of a world that evokes nostalgia and romance. I found the experience absorbing and have already shared ...

Gail E. Farrelly

Llumina Press, 2005

a delightful cosy
Once again Farrelly has written a clever mystery with insights into the world of academia. There is a cast of very interesting characters,( a smart shoe shine lady, a former chambermaid and the requisite police officer), and a close friendship between 60 something Katie and 20 something Maria. Of course, there are suspects galore. Katie is opionated and clever. I especially loved that Katie's ...
