| | 2. |  | The War of the Worlds (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $7.00
Customer Review:
What struck me over and over about reading THE WAR OF THE WORLDS was the imagination that fueled this story at a time when men got around by horse and lit their homes with lanterns.
H.G. Wells envisioned space travel, mechanized warfare as well as a killer Heat Ray and a deadly Black Gas the... more info

| | 3. |  | The Coming Race
from Broadview Press
Price: $12.95
Customer Review:
This is a dreadful novel, whose only claim to fame is that it inspired a large bunch of nutters to create the Second World War. It's content though entirely fictional prompted the creation of the Theosiphists, the Vril Society, the Thule Society and ultimately formed the philosophy of the NAZI... more info

from Overlook TP
Price: $10.17
Customer Review:
What a great discovery, this book is available!! I read it about 30 years ago and it has been still in my memory. Action, action, suspense and surprising philosophical ending.
Is "reality" that we observe a true reality? Must read for science fiction lovers who concentrate on "worlds within... more info

| | 5. | [no image] | Helliconia Summer
from Ace
Customer Review:
This is by far the best book in the series - not quite great, but an interesting book to read. The characters are vibrant, their motivations understandable, the plot at least somewhat plausible. As with all the Helliconia books, there are many loose ends and the author never quite made me care about... more info

| | 6. | [no image] | Helliconia Spring
from Berkley
Customer Review:
I read this book in the late 90's when I was in high school.
To bring it into perspective today - makes a lot of sense.
The book is a collection of science, astronomy, society ,physical/human geography and a touch of Science fiction.
Most important to potential buyers is the fact that... more info

| | 8. | [no image] | Helliconia Winter
from Ace
Customer Review:
Without a doubt, this is the weakest book in the series. It's also the shortest, and feels like Aldiss didn't really know what to do with it.
There are two intertwined narratives -- one involving Helliconia (almost exclusively on the continent of Sibornal), and the other involving Earth and the... more info

| | 9. |  | Soft as Steel: The Art of Julie Bell
from Running Press
Price: $19.46
Customer Review:
Julie is my favorite fantasy artist so it was nice to have a book specifically with her work in it.
The book covers a range of Julie's art (not just that wonderful metal she does) up until the late 90s. I have the Boris and Julie Ultimate Collection so a lot of the works in this book are images... more info

| | 10. |  | New Worlds (New Anthology Series , Vol 1)
from White Wolf Publishing
Customer Review:
Colvin is now referring to the review 'above' when in fact he's actually referring to the review 'below'. Just to reiterate that the review 'above' is about the actual book advertised and the review 'below' is about an issue of New Worlds edited by David Garnett (good, but not the same NW)!
