She's done it again!!! Well, this is number 8, so I knew she would. Xhex is probably the baddest chic I know. Okay so this will probably rank 4th for me. first Zadist, then Vishous, then Butch, then John... Now I need her to tie up the loose ends with Blay and Qhuinn... I was on wiki (I know not reliable), but it said her next installment is due out March 28th and it's Payne's story... If it's true, can't wait... Another home run by J.R. Ward...

Lovely, charming, witty, and fun. I was happy to see that 20-somethings still shoulder backpacks and tromp around Europe (though that's not what this particular book is about). So much fun I even checked out the entrance requirements to The Center for Cartoon Arts (fyi: they don't take Federal financial aid. Too bad.) Easy to read in one sitting; you'll immediately want to eat. I look forward to Knisley's next work(s).

Although I have always enjoyed fantasy, this book made me begin to wonder if I truly am a fan of fantasy. Why? Perhaps it is because I want to say that in this book the "magic" of the world was too much in-your-face. That seems like a contradiction coming from a devoted fantasy reader. But when the main character says things like "I need someone with magic to solve my problem for me," I feel like I’m reading something a little too childish. [1] That was strike one. Strike two went against characterization. At first I thought I’d see some complex characterization, but it ended up fizzling away. There is a small pontification near the beginning when Zedd [2] tries to explain to Richard that "bad" people really don't think of themselves as bad: they see justification for their actions. At the time Richard didn't understand how "bad" people could consider themselves good. This was a good setup for complex villains with compelling back-stories, as well as a potential character arc as Richard learned to understand and appreciate the villains. Unfortunately, that is not how I saw the story play out. [3] And since I’ve been using a baseball metaphor, I’ll call a foul ball on the philosophical discussions. There were attempts to lay down utilitarian view points and debates throughout the book, including a common theme that the needs of the "many" should outweigh the needs of the "few". But I found these were usually too simplistic to really be worth discussing in any detail. If you are reading this for the philosophy, you’ll be disappointed. What really turned me off this story though was near the end when the plot took a very dark turn. (view spoiler) In addition to the fact that it was dark and violent, which isn't something I really look for, it also somehow managed to be boring and repetitive. So that leaves the count at two strikes and one foul ball, but I’m going to end the baseball metaphor there. It was a fun book, but I’m not recommending it beyond that. As this is Goodkind's first novel, perhaps more can be expected from its sequels. ---- [1] This is not an actual quote, but it is very close to an actual quote. [2] The names in this review have NOT been changed to protect the innocent. They are fictional for crying out loud. [3] This point is highly debatable. (view spoiler)
Fascinating history intersecting disease, mosquitos, geography, botany, science, politics, and personalities. Who knew, for instance, that Union attempts to establish a bridgehead along the Atlantic coast were stopped largely because of outbreaks of marlaria, typhoid, and yellow fever? Or that Napoleon used his knowlege of malaria, or "Walcheren" to defeat the English: "We must oppose the English with nothing but fever, which will soon devour them all." Later, Napoleon would himself cause the worst epidemic of malaria ever seen in Europe, breaching the dykes to flood the Scheldt estuary, thereby creating a perfect mosquito breeding ground.
I recently played a computer game based on this book. I was quite surprised by the ending, however, as it was different from the computer game and much more inventive.

A delightful buldungsroman that lightly fictionalizes Coetzee's move to the center from South Africa to London, focusing on his severe and obsessive aethsetic moods--closely tied up to his relations with women. I laughed uproariously to read about his short tenure with IBM where, trying to make the best of his intellegences, he found himself a gig at the dawn of the computing era.

a popular book on Grammer? What! How could it be that I stole looks at this one from time to time, and chuckled and enjoyed every bit of it...
