from Vintage
Price: $6.95
Customer Review:
There are works of fiction and nonfiction that transcend their genres. This is one of those works, one that should be required reading for high school students, or, at the very least, for college students, if it isn't already. The horror that was the A-bomb unleashed unbridled power over the city of... more info

This author presents an excellant overview of a selective portion of the action in WWII (Africa and Sicily). At the same time he expresses the thoughts of the common soldier as well commanders of both the axis and allies. Shaara is among the best historical adventure writers in the world today.

Customer Review:
I do not like Tom Clancy. I despise his totalitarian amoral politics and I canNOT stand him slapping his readers with them in his latest oversized and underwritten duds.
However, Tom Clancy was once an EXCELLENT technothriller writer. He might not have invented the genre, yet he launched it... more info

from Bantam
Price: $11.20
Customer Review:
It seems to me that Tom Robbins books are hit or miss. This book is one of the more polarizing titles. However, I think its gotten a bad rap. Considerably shroter than most of his books, I think its enjoyable as a quick read. I guess some people want and expect something longer from Robbins.

This is an incredible book. Mr. Clancy has managed to weave an extremely complex story of drugs, betrayal, murder, honor and ultimately justice. Woven throughout this book's pages are many great moral values, creating a truly positive reading experience.

The story of a man who had it all and risked it all to do what he thought was his duty is one we can all learn from. Stewart had fame, fortune and a bright future in Hollywood.

I stumbled on Steven Wilson's work by fortunate accident and was very favorably impressed with this novel. "Voyage" was well-researched, well-written, and very entertaining. I recommend this book to anyone with an interest in WWII history and submarining!

"I'm sorry, Steven," he said, taking out a knife." Now I have your attention. This book is called The Gadget and is a novel written by Paul Zindel.
Well, I'll fill you in a little; Steven is a 13-year-old boy who comes to Las Alamos to stay with his father. Now Steven's father is not just any... more info
