Love it! Love it! LOVE IT!
Just got my copy today and I'm more than thrilled. It's a nice heavy, quality book for the price. The photos are good and the little blurbs about the artists are very nice. Yes, we have seen some of the beadwork by famous artists (Diane Fitzgerald, etc.) before in other books, but a lot of it I haven't seen before. Can't wait to sit down tonight and pore over every page!

very useful look into changes related to 2012
essays run the gambit from explaining the Mayan calendar to evidences of global change for the better as well as theories of extraterestrial explainations for the source of the Maya themselves. i found the book comforting and non alarmist as well as broad in scope. a very useful book for those who are wondering what 2012 is all about

Awesome...Awesome...Loved it!
I loved this book, this book, I could not stop reading. This book focuses on Des who later becomes Darth Bane. I love how each chapter just focuses on him and only him, from his times in the mines to his training in the sith academy. I was very impressed with this book, and was only annoyed in the fact that I read it so fast that the ride of excitement of this book was over. I just hope the ...

Travels with Geezer
Jim Harrison's Legends of the Fall is one of my favorite reads and so I was curious to see how he would approach a more personal subject, in this case his own aging process. I was not disappointed. He tackles the subject by exploding the droll existence of his main character, 60-year-old Cliff, forcing him to move beyond his comfort zone which in this case means literally away from the strident ...

My curiosity was satisfied with this rather peculiar tale...
I am not a huge fan of short stories, because it never fails that by the time I find myself invested in them I have reached the last page. Same can be said for `The Curious Case of Benjamin Button', a rather delightful little story that is engaging, interesting and very rewarding. Yes, this is a short story, so I'm going to say this straight off; you may not want to invest your money in this ...

It's only "happily ever after" if Bill Willingham says it's so...
I don't know why it took me this long to get on board the FABLES bandwagon. For years now, left and right, everyone's been pimping this series to me. Now, count me converted. I finally read a FABLES trade paperback, and, it turns out, everyone's right. This is some of the best reading currently being produced in comic book-dom, and I got straight-away hooked. FABLES: STORYBOOK LOVE happens to be ...

Great Book , Wrong name
The older version of The Haunted Bridge was published in the late 1930's. It is a wonderful book with the wrong title name; which is easily noticed by the mid-section of the book. Although this book is not as full of action as many other books in the series, it still contains much fun. It has an obnoxious man who likes Nancy, a parted romance, a burned down mansion, and a stolen jewelry case. ...

This is the one to buy! Perfect in every way!
I ordered 4 books on being a flower girl for my 4.5 year old granddaughter. This was the best of the 4 books I ordered. My granddaughter wasn't very excited about being a flower girl but this book changed her mind! She absolutely glowed when I read this to her! Each turn of the page was a delight! The book explains the steps to prepare for the big day. The author didn't miss a detail and wrote a ...

I've also owned a number of Internet businesses and been involved in the Home Business industry ...
