Incredible Story, Phenomenal Artwork
I picked up this book solely to enjoy Bo Hampton's wonderful artwork, but I was surprised at how well written the story was. You don't think that you'll be spooked by a Graphic Novel, but I read this lengthy book before bed and I have to admit that when I turned the lights out I could have sworn I was hearing things. Incredibly creepy. No doubt, what draws you to this story is the masterful ...
Mortal Touch
7 reviews
By Light Unseen Media, 2007
The Vampires Next Door
Inanna Arthen's highly original vampire novel will appeal to readers of Poe, Lovecraft and Shirley Jackson as well as fans of modern vampire fiction. Arthen avoids the typical clichés of the genre; her vampires have reflections, day jobs, and sex lives. The title, "Mortal Touch" and the tag line "All I need to do is touch you," both hint at Arthen's unique approach to bloodletting: her ...

Life in the World Unseen by Anthony Borgia
What can we expect after we die? Does life really continue? What will be our relationship to God? Does heaven have physical properties; water, dirt, air, food, bodies? What can we expect to do in heaven; transportation, relationships, occupations, government, religion, worship, free will? What about hell and punishment? What happens to good Catholics who ...

What Jack and Jackie taught us...
The terrorist attack on September 11, 2001 may have destroyed Jacques Lowe's negatives of the Kennedy family, but not the photographs or the brilliance evident in the camera capturing this shining light that once was Camelot. On the fortieth anniversary of the assassination, which is astutely, not for the first time, linked with September 11, 2001 as a turning point and a loss of innocence in our ...

A civil war within
As a Christian pacifist, I'm extremely wary of militaristic language, in either common speech ("bullet points" or "I got bombed last night") or allegedly spiritual discourse ("Onward Christian soldiers, marching off to war..."). So I was initially put off by the title _Unseen Warfare_. But as soon as I began reading the book, it becane clear that the type of warfare discussed was quite ...

Great Read !!
The novel, Chaos: Order Unseen, is a tale of myseterious creatures, corrupt government, and trecherous plots that remain hidden to the reader until the last possible moment. It is about three men, if you count an elf desguised as a human for a great portion of the book as a man, who are each on their own individual quests. They happen to meet each other, not just by coincidence, and are united ...

Art is awesome
The story is somewhat high-schooly and immature (no surprise; it's timed right after high school anyway) but the art is awesome and the characters are interesting, and there are intriguing plot developments running under the surface that kept me reading on.

An excellent description
I was diagnosed with post-viral CFS in 1988. This book is an excellent description of living with CFS except for one thing: 3/4 of marriages affected by chronic illness break up, which means that most of us don't have the live-in support system she had. Some disbelieving doctors like to attribute CFS to "secondary gain" or enablers who allow the patient to "enjoy the sick role". ...

Thank you, Mr. Buchanan, for this book.
Thank you, Mr. Buchanan. This book has been a real blessing to me and made me think after reading parts of it, long into the next week and thereafter. You truly have a gift. I hope to see much more from you.

Heaven and Earth - What a fantastic book
This book contains one of the best set of images I have ever seen. There are pictures of different subjects on a whole variety of scales and colours, which are fantastic design sources for many arty/crafty people who lack inspiration for various projects. Some images are unidentifyable and are impossible to understand without reading the blurbs - I spent a while guessing what some of the pictures ...

Makes Current Alaska Native Life Utterly Compelling
Yes, this is a collection of essays. But it is also a collection of stories, for Tom Kizzia is a skillful narrative writer on a par with the very best fiction writers. He takes readers into the heart of Alaska Native culture, revealing along the way the contradictions of the intersection of modern life with ancient traditions. But that description makes this book sound like work, and it is, ...

Even Better Than The First
I bought this book months ago from Amazon UK, because I am a huge Cusick fan and it hadn't been released in America yet. My only disappointment was reading it too quickly. I should have taken my time, because after I read it, I couldn't wait for the next part. The book itself was awesome. I couldn't put it down. It was even better than the first. I really like the story line between Lucy ...

Quite a Tale!
Unseen Forces is a rollicking good tale in the Indiana Jones genre. Kovacs masterfully works complex esoteric historical facts into an fast paced action packed story. The hero, Sky Wilder, may be too good to be true, but that never stopped us from loving James Bond. Kovacs knows his conspiracy stuff and keeps us on the edge of our seats trying to figure it out. A great first book! If you ...

When the watcher becomes the watchee...
I needed some diversionary reading while away at a conference this week, so I took along my latest library acquisition... The Unseen by T. L. Hines. Between the flight and the first night at the hotel, this one didn't last very long. But it was an enjoyable read with some different angles usually not encountered in novels... Lucas doesn't have much of a past that he can remember. All he ...

Outstanding1
This book was recommended by a friend, and I have to say I am eternally grateful to her. I couldn't put it down. Ms. Orenstein writes with compassion and understanding of the complexities which bind and separate people. And in a single paragraph I was often moved to both laughter and tears. In addition to a compelling plot -- a young man who is jailed and then seemly disappears (the book is also ...

Yes It Is, It's True.
Yes, it is one of the best Beatles photo albums I've ever seen. It covers that period from 1963 through the breakup and to George's death in 2001. Some of the pictures are familiar, others aren't. It's a wonderful journey to start at the beginning and see the Beatles' milestones and how they change. We see their early exuberance and eagerness to please by posing in showbizzy poses in matching ...

A Town is Sacrificed to Politics
As a native of industrialized Pennsylvania I'm perplexed by how little is known of the tragedy of Centralia. I was unfamiliar myself until some years ago when I innocently passed through the area on route 61. I found a ghost town with an orderly street grid, with city blocks completely devoid of all but one or two lonely buildings, and vast abandoned fields covering what could have been orderly ...

Something for Everyone, a smorgasbord of wonders
This book inspires and entrances with something for everyone, from the adventurer with an artistic eye, to the most esoteric mathematics devotee. At practically any level of understanding, it provokes the desire for learning, and an aesthetic appreciation for math that is usually reserved for those who make higher math their lives' work. Best of all, this book can be "grazed", i.e., read out of ...

THOROUGH LOOK AT PROBLEMS INVOLVED IN TRANSFERENCE
The book i personally found very helpful in my own family setting as it looks on why people transfer their emotions onto others. It deals wisely with the need to find wholeness in our relationship with God - to open the memories which when repressed can lead us to transfer onto others. For the one transfered upon the importance of holding onto the truth and not wallowing in a reactive and ...
