Hikaru No Go 1: Descent of the Go Master (Hikaru No Go)

12 reviews
Yumi Hotta

Topeka Bindery, 2004

A great stratigic manga!
Yeah! I've seen the whole anime series (in chinese) already, and believe me it's really good! The end is sort of a "you choose" type of ending, so... you get my point. Hikaru no go is a great manga promoting the ancient chinese/japanese game go. The object of the game is use black and white pieces and occupy most of the board. You can "eat" sections of your opponent's part by totally ...

Peter Telep

Eos, 1999

Great book.
It's been almost two years since I bought this book, I've finally taken the time to write a review. All there really is to say is that this book is great. The first one was great, this one is great, and the third is great as well. Buy them all, read them all. I doubt you'll be disappointed.

A Descent Into Hell: The True Story of an Altar Boy, a Cheerleader, and a Twisted Texas Murder

17 reviews
Kathryn Casey

Harper, 2008

Hellishly Tragic Story - Great Read!
Kathryn Casey tells a tragic story of drugs, obsession, murder, and dismemberment. As are all of Casey's books, DESCENT is impeccably researched and no stone is left unturned with regard to the individual histories of the offender and the victim. On the surface, the murder appears senseless... until you enter the dark world of Colton Pitonyak. A brilliant student turned drunken punk, turned ...

Hyemeyohsts Storm

Ballantine Books, 1994

More than a tale - a beginning
This is a book about more than the guru-guided personal search for self-understanding of a half-breed, more than a remarkably profound exposé of the life-philosophy (not religion) of the native american peoples. More even than a confirmation of the inner validity of other ancient systems of thought and knowledge to be found in other parts of the world, for example in Scandinavia. This book is ...

Alakan Sized Life!
What a great read! Awe Inspiring, Alaskan all the way. Does not get more raw than that! I grew up in the bush hearing tales of the good old days. This is a story worth every word.

Rapid Descent : Disaster in Boston Harbor

J. P. Polidoro

Longtail Publishing, 2000

A Real Page Turner
Jack Polidoro has a writing style that will keep you turning the pages. This book is a fast read. The plot is exciting and moves. Jack has a way of making the tale come alive in your head. This book should be made into one of those disaster movies starring George Kennedy. It would be a knock-out! Jack included a generous helping of juicy sex too.

Descent (Book 1)

Peter Telep, Interplay Prod

Avon, 1999

Descent at its finest!
When I started reading this book, I had absolutely no idea how a person could turn the immersive but sometimes confusing world of mines, robots, and destruction into an immersive novel as well. I soon found out how as Telep not only manages to create an addicting world of nonstop action and adventure, but succeeds in creating a gripping storyline where an ex-marine named Benjamin St. John must ...

Halfbreed: The Remarkable True Story Of George Bent - Caught Between The Worlds Of The Indian And The White ...

David Fridtjof Halaas, Andrew E. Masich

Da Capo Press, 2004

A Unique and Important Life
George Bent was truly one-of-a-kind. Born the son of a wealthy and prominent White trader and a beautiful Cheyenne woman in 1843, he was raised half-White and half-Cheyenne. He was educated in the White man's world and served in the Confederate Army, but became a Cheyenne warrior when his tribe went to war with the United States, participating in 27 war parties. He later worked as an ...

Only a Few Bones: A True Account of the Rolling Fork Tragedy & Its Aftermath

John Philip Colletta

Direct Descent, 2000

The Best Way to Learn How To Write a Gripping Family Story
I've been fortunate to hear Dr. Colletta speak at several genealogy conferences. He is a master at gleaning facts from newspapers, family tales, and other sources to illustrate his family stories, and this story of trying to find the truth behind a family tragedy taught me so much about putting together a readable family book. I never even thought to look at weather reports to see what was ...

Descent to the Goddess (Studies in Jungian Psychology)

8 reviews
Sylvia Brinton Perera

Inner City Books, 1981

The Deep and True Feminine
As an astrologer, Jungian and VisionCoach, I often recommend this book to my clients as a healing journey. It is probably necessary to have a little Jungian and mythological background to enjoy this particular approach to the universal truth of the female. The style is elevated and uses language familiar to Jungian analysts. You cannot imagine what you will find in this book, though -- it is so ...

Joseph Kinsey Howard

Swan, 1965

A well researched history of my ancestry.
First I would like to thank Amazon for making this fine book so easy to obtain. There are countless thousands of descendants of these, strong, courageous people that now live throughout the world. my son among them, being on a temporary assigment in Turkey. Many thousands more know little of the history of our people. This book should have a particular appeal to these folk. Perhaps by the ...

Tiya Miles

University of California Press, 2005

Outstanding scholarship and storytelling!
First, let me say how much I enjoyed this book. It is a work of tremendous research informed by a mature mind which deeply understands the roles of history and story in creating self-identity. I was alerted to its existence by Ilene Shepard Smiddy, author of DAUGHTER OF SHILOH, also a splendid narrative/adventure retelling a part of the Shoeboots story, but centering on Clarinda Allington and ...

Robert A. Brooks

University of North Carolina Press, 1995

A Terrific Reference Chart for Everyone
This enormous Wall Chart is a "Must Have" for any scholar of classical literature and mythology, as well as anyone who just loves reading Classical Myths and stories of the Ancient Greeks and Romans. The artwork is superb, as are the detailed references and "nexi" that are drawn between the various figures of Classical Mythology--both famous and not so well known! The visual impact of this ...

Living Jonathans Life: A Doctors Descent Into Darkness & Addiction

5 reviews
Scott M. Davis M.D.

HCI, 2008

A great portal into the nature of addiction
Dr. Davis's book gives an intimate and insightful perspective on addiction and its effects not only on the addicted, but on the family. By telling his story honestly and without any flair, Dr. Davis shows us that even the best of us can become victim of addiction, and despite the horrible nature of the disease, that there is hope. As a medical student, it is a jarring view of a problem that we ...

Mary Ann Wells

University Press of Mississippi, 1998

This is history told from a fresh perspective.
I highly recommend Mary Ann Wells' book "Searching for Red Eagle." This is history written in a fresh, creative way, told from the viewpoint of the Native Americans. Whether you are a history enthusiast, interested in the history and culture of the American Indians of the southeastern United States, or simply enjoy a good book, this biography is fascinating reading.

Killing Time with Strangers (Sun Tracks)

5 reviews
W. S. Penn

University of Arizona Press, 2000

My Personal Favorite
I was impressed by W.S. Penn's Killing Time with Strangers. I thought the author was witty, intellegent, and understanding. The characters in the book were well developed, as was the plot of the story. I would be forced to disagree with anyone who rated this book less than a 5, for I have not only bought this book for myself, but also for my friends and family as gifts. This book has everything, ...

Discovering the beauty within.
As a black woman, have you ever doubted your self-worth? Are you your own worst critic? If so, SAPPHIRES AND OTHER PRECIOUS JEWELS is the book for you. As Terri McFaddin so eloquently describes, we are all a beautiful, precious jewel. She likens the characteristics of black women to the following twelve jewels: Ruby - a woman of virtue and praise Topaz - a woman of vision and reward ...

Descent: The Heroic Discovery of the Abyss

8 reviews
Brad Matsen

Pantheon, 2005

Descent, a great historical novel
Mr. Matsen is truly a great storyteller. With one notable exception the book seems a flawless execution of a historical novel with some fantastic technical detail. My one objection, which is nitpicking, is the statement on page 207, where he states that red light has a higher frequency than blue. The exact opposite is true. The extensive reference listing for each chapter shows this man truly ...

Descent

Donald R. Avoy

Outskirts Press, 2004

Terrific Read / Great Informaion
Dr. Avoy has written a terrific book - the story is moving, engaging and ultimately tragic. The characters are interesting, articulate and uniquely intelligent. And there's another unusual hook to this book: it's about drug use and full of information about the physiology, biochemistry and politics of addiction. Just fascinating. I recommend the book highly.
