This book was chosen as the 2008 "Canada Reads" selection. Each year, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation invites four or five noteworthy figures from Canadian arts and letters to nominate a favorite book, the only rule being that the volume must reflect Canadian culture and values. The merits of each book are debated, often quite vigorously, in a series of radio programs, until one is selected that year's Canada Reads winner. The goal is to have every citizen of the nation read the book, in hopes that it will generate discussion and debate, increasing the sense of community in the nation. Can you imagine, millions of people earnestly talking about a book? I know, we already have this. But I ain't interested in reading what Oprah tells me to read. And sure, sure, the selection process might sound like The Final Four for nerds, but it beats "American Idol". And yes, what I am saying is that things are better in Canada, and that Americans are a bunch of lazy, intellectually atrophied cementheads. Want more evidence? I give you "The Family Guy". Anyway, the book. It's a remarkable effort, in turns hilarious and heartbreaking. Percival "King" Leary is an octogenarian ex-hockey star, nearing death and haunted, albeit gently, by the ghosts of his past. There are plenty of "King Lear" references, but the story also owes much to Thomas Berger's "Little Big Man" and the best of Mark Harris's baseball novels. That's high praise, indeed, but completely deserved. It's fun to pick at all the NHL references -- King Leary is based in part on Clarence "King" Clancy, Manny Oz is clearly references the tragic Busher Jackson, and Clay Clinton seems to be an amalgam of Conn Smythe and Harold Ballard -- but the power of the book is its messages: those who set their hearts on worldly things end up broken- hearted; no guilt is more searing that the guilt of having betrayed a loved one; forgiveness transcends time; and love is a powerful thing, indeed. Plus, the word "gormless" is used about 57 times. How can you dislike a book that makes such liberal use of such a great word?

Great Science Fantasy, the series works through many trials and tribulations for the hero that are comparable to the issues faced by many in life today, the underlying belief in truth and doing what is right no matter the cost deliver a deep and honest message that many would do well to take to heart, the love that Richard the wizard holds for Kahlan who becomes his wife and soul mate is unswerving and carries him through the sorrows and despair that he must face, even when at times he believes that she has forsaken him. A series that I would recommend to anyone who enjoys adventure, romance, action and honesty.

An interesting memoir on growing up in the harsh environment of the war torn regions of Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia). The writing is interesting but the jumps in time and lack of plot make this book a little scattered. It does bravely show the english-african's perspective on the government, politics, and various races in Africa. However, I found myself often frustrated with the family and their apparent prejudice and the naivety of the main character as a child/adolescent.

The book was rather insightful, but the audio was awful.

Most poetic book I have read in a really long time. I loved it!
another great distopia. i would put it along the same lines as "1984" except in a more structured way. every character has a number instead of a name and they have a set way of life (when they wake up, go to work, sleep, have sex, etc.) but one of the numbers starts questioning why it's that way and it just makes for a great book. say no to big brother.

This book was cool, it was exiting, funny, interesting. the only problem was that it was all short stories. I thought some of the stories were really exiting, and I wanted to like read more, but each story were like 20 pages. I think Roald Dahl has done a good job of putting so much into the 20 pages though. Felt like I read a book after each. In conclution, good book.
