ABC: A Beautiful Compendium
This book was so beautiful, I couldn't resist it. The artwork is gorgeous, but the text is intriguing, too. It's a well-written compendium of witch history and lore, perfect for rainy-day reading.

The Meaning of Life....
How does one even begin describing this book? Can you even sum up the plot and do it justice? Talk of Malachi and his adventures/mishaps or Beatrice... Do we follow Roomford as he appears and disappears as the earth rotates? Do we talk about the invasion from Mars? Or the years spent on Mercury? How do we discuss the plot when in reality the plot is only a vehicle to get the reader to the ...

The best in the series!
We read all these books in the series together as a family. This one was our favorite. My boys couldn't wait for bedtime so they could hear what would happen next in the story. These books offer enough action to keep one's interest, young and old. I recommend all the books in the series. We can't wait for #6!

Ye Gods (and Goddesses), This is a Gem!
Well, we're all going to read the final Harry Potter book aren't we? But I just discovered another constellation in the firmament just as brilliant: Anne Ursu's second installment in her Chronos Chronicles trilogy, The Siren Song. My children, 17 and 13, and I were delighted by this book. The Greek gods with their laughably vain and all too human foibles again threaten to wreak havoc on the ...

The classic sirens are: Goddess, Companion, Sex Kitten, Competitor, and Mother. She uses a famous women in history as a case study to illustrate each.

Not as good as the 1st Heros of Silver springs
The first and the 3rd in this series were excellent.. Could not get into this one.... I didn't really care for the heroine in this story..

A hot cowboy fantasy
I, for one, loved Cowboy Games, because let's face it, who doesn't love a sexy cowboy, and Gavin Carter is one of the sexiest. He also operates Fantasy Ranch, every female's idea of a dream vacation. For seven days, the guests at Fantasy Ranch are treated like royalty by their gorgeous cowboy. Of course, there's a catch--two small rules that are not negotiable: No sex. No contact or ...

Country Bumpkin
Michael Perry's every page drips with humor, intrigue, and dexterity. He is truly a master of words! His simple country bumpkin way of life stands juxtaposed to his extreme intellect--a beautiful combination that makes his writing style quite unique and thoroughly enjoyable. Even if the story seems at times a monotonous New Auburn history lesson, one should read it for the sheer joy of watching ...

Not for everyone
The humor is elaborate and depends on convoluted witticisms couched in a pastiche of eighteenth century prose, alternating with sharp observations of contemporary British life and amazingly effective slapstick. This sort of thing has to be done superbly well or it falls flat. This is done superbly well. The plot seems completely fantastic until the murderer is revealed and you realise you should ...

When The Sirens Sing
Ernest Gann has written a memoir of what happens when you hear the Sirens singing and follow them. I loved this book as the sea-going counterpart to his marvelous memoir of flight, Fate Is the Hunter; there's the same wrily witty, compassionate observations on the vicissitudes of the sea and those who sail upon it, particularly himself, the same amused humility in the face of the perversities and ...
