Shorter Stories from the Dean of Science Fiction
All things have a history. Science fiction has an illustrious modern history, with roots in Verne and Wells. There was a time when science fiction meant scantily clad women and tentacled monsters. All that changed with John Campbell and Robert Anson Heinlein. Heinlein had a firm belief in the individual. Yet, he also believed in a strong military. Heinlein also had a good science and ...

Terrific writing!
This is one of these books I could hardly put down. Reality and the supernatural are so well blended that one flows naturally into the other. With the nice details, you get a real sense of place, but the stories move right along. Intriguing characters and clever plotting kept me reading far into the night.

A book doesn't need a perfect HAPPY ending to be great
I completly adore this book! it is my favorite and i have read it many times. The characters are easy to relate to. The ending of summers part in the story is sad yes BUT any book that can actualy make me cry is worth the read. And all is not lost, the characters do live on and do have a happy ending it just doesn't come right out and tell you "they skiped of into the sunset togeth holding hands ...

Books, not Movie.
The books are wonderful, but if you think that the books are gonig to be like any other version of The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, you are dead wrong. If you read the introduction to the books you know that each version is meant to be different than the others. That is the beauty of Douglas Adams work. They are all unique but all worth you time.

Great fun, loved it
Our heroine, Sookie Stackhouse is a waitress in a small southern town. She is basically a normal human, except she can read other peoples' thoughts. Considering there are vampires, werewolves, witches etc, being able to read minds is essentialy normal. Isn't it? Charlaine Harris, the writer, is obviously influenced by Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Bryant, vampire executioner necromancer ...

Great Books!
This Omnibus is from the SCI-FI Book of the Month Club and was only sold to members. I bought it so that I could own a hardcover edition of these books. (I prefer hardcover for books that I can read over and over again) There are plenty of reviews for Blood Rites and Dead Beat out there, so I'll let you rely on those for more details. What I will say, is that Jim Butcher continues to become ...

Be prepared for a wild ride!
This is actually a compilation of the first four books in Mary Janice Davidson's "Undead" series. I happened to get this through a book club that I belong to and it was cheaper to buy the hardcover compilation than to buy the four paperbacks individually. I was definitely taking a chance by doing this because I had never read any of Davidson's works in the past. I was not disappointed! ...

The second collection of Anita Blake novels in hardback
"The Midnight Cafe" is the second of three hardback editions that collect several novels in Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter series. "Club Vampyre" had the first three stories and "The Midnight Cafe" has the next three: "Lunatic Cafe," "Bloody Bones," and "Killing Dance." That last one has proven to be the pivotal novel in the series. In "Lunatic Cafe" our heroine no ...
