Captures the true understanding of what it is to live Sled-dogs
Living with two Siberian Huskies, I can truely identify and learned alot about my two from Jeff King. Even though they live with me in a big east -coast city,I was able to make the connection by gathering descriptions from his work. The illustrations are breath-taking .The personalities of Donna's subject came to life and brought forth what jeff was trying to describe in words. Thank you ...

A must-read for anyone in the field of cardiac medicine
I am a basic scientist researching heart attacks, and while I was aware of Earl Bakken (with whom Lillehei invented the implantable pacemaker), I had never heard the story of Lillehei. Though I have a modest background in medicine, I am not a doctor, and I was nonetheless easily able to follow this riveting book. All of the essentials of the story are included (though sometimes I would have liked ...

perfect to be read on the porch in the autumn sunshine
Out of all the King books this might be my favorite yet. King is a wonderful hero, and such a guy! Which makes him very real and three dimensional. For the past three years, he carried the memory of a night with a mysterious woman. He's been searching for her since, but when he finally realizes who she is, she turns out to be his worst enemy. Sparks fly all over this book! The characters, the ...

Important read for the times.
My progress was slow, as I had to stop frequently to praise God, repent, pray, or just express joy or soberness with the content of the pages. Judith Haynes, Political Advisor/Consultant, Washington, DC.

Intersection of politics with gender
"I may have the body of a weak and feeble woman, but I have th heart and stomach of a King" - Elizabeth I This quote from Elizabeth I says a lot about this book. Professor Carole Levin examines how Elizabeth I was able to use her role as a woman (where traditionally, the public viewed women as incapable, weak, dependant) to her advantage and at the same time she ruled like a "King". Levin also ...

Valuable for Heart Patients and their families
Larry has done more in this book for heart patients and thir friends and families than any professional counselor could do. You read and feel the fears of well known people and you understand, through the words of their cardiologists, what has taken place. This book should be handed to every heart patient who walks into a cardiologist's office for a test or exam.

An interesting and readable book
My first introduction to Stephen King was SALEM'S LOT, which I read in the mid-1970s while my husband worked nights and our children were fast asleep. At that time, although I had to wake up at 6:00 to get ready for work, the story kept me up reading all night. It both fascinated and frightened me; I was too fascinated to quit turning the pages and too frightened to close my eyes. Since then, ...

terrific historical account
King Philip II of Spain was also the King of England when his wife devout Catholic Mary sat on the throne. Like his spouse he loathed the Reformation and tired to end its pervasive insurrection while also building a powerful empire. When Mary Tudor dies, which means her widow is no longer an English monarch, her half sister Protestant supporter Elizabeth I becomes ruler of England. Philip ...

Uncanny parallel to his real life
If you have read his book "On Writing" he has a small biography that parallels this book in nature. The story line and the details were intriguing. The only distraction from this was his constant potty mouth. He must have needed filler to flush (not flesh) out the book. I do not know if that is a recent phenomenon of they all are that way. The movies are not that way. This is one story with a ...

A great follow-up for "A Natural Attachment"
Katherine Kingsley is a wonderful writer, with wit in her flowing dialogue, good-paced and intriguing plots, and good characterization. I thoroughly enjoyed "A Natural Attachment" and Peter Frazier, who appeared briefly in that story, now has his own in this book. Reluctantly responding to a summons by his cousin, Lord Blakesford, Peter arrives in time to bury his infamous relative, who has ...

Addie and the King of Heart's
Addie wasa good book because Addie fell in love with there teacher and all of her friends made fun of her because of the person she like a lot.Her friends would tell her she was nasty for liking the teacher and she would say that they were only eleven years older than she was.I liked the book because was very funny.I rat this book a ten out of ten because of all the things that happened.

A Perfect Way to Learn About History
As a avid fiction reader, I have always found history books to be dull and quite boring. This book has peaked my interest and bought it to a new level! I wish all history books could be as well written this one....as I believe more people would turn to non-fiction readers! I am already looking forward to the author's next book.

The worst romance I have ever read
Wooden characters, a carbon copy of dozens of other books with the hero afraid to trust, the sexy scenes read like failed and weak attempts at erotica. Hundreds of typos or missing words, and badlyconstructed sentences. This is an insult to intelligence romance readers and the editing at Harlequin was not good.
