Niccolò Machiavelli

A guide to gaining and maintaining power
This book was written by the famous Italian statesman Niccolo Machiavelli in 1531. This book is a classic and I was pleasantly surprised that the content was not dated and the principles translate easily into the modern worlds of business and politics. The author wrote this book as an instruction guide for governing princes in the 1500's when Italy was divided into city states and were being ...

A Time Tested Classic
If I was stranded on a desert island and could only take one book with me, it would be this one. It does not matter how many times I read this book over the years, every time I pick it up, it is as if I was reading it for the first time. I realize something new and profound with every reading. This little book is so compact with depth of meaning and wisdom, it is truly as timeless as wisdom ...

Smart and brave trumps cuteness
Although this fairy tale is a nearly thirty-year-old classic, it is still timely for girls. The book was a birthday present for a great granddaughter named Elizabeth, who loved reading a story about a heroine who shares her name. But the book pleased her even more because Elizabeth the heroine is smart and brave, and learns that sometimes handsome princes are just silly and not worth the ...

Explosive Artistic Ability!! Silva's Best Allon to Date
When you read a review saying that Daniel Silva can flat out write, believe the hype! Silva can really write, and "Prince of Fire" proves just that. Another reviewer said that he didn't think Silva would raise the bar with this one, and that he was wrong. That's accurate enough, because I felt the same way. If somebody were to tell me that Daniel Silva isn't up to snuff, I'd be laughing for a ...

`Do the ends justify the means?'
A young colleague of mine recently said `management is easy'. I smiled enigmatically and considered buying him a copy of `The Prince' but I fear it would be wasted. I am now on my third copy of this book which, alas, I can only read in English. The George Bull translation (as reprinted in 1995) is the version I currently refer to. I first read this book when studying economic history at high ...

Incroyable!
This is probably one of the best books I have ever read. We read it in my fourth year french class, right before graduation. It is such a simple tale wherein lies a deep and meaningful message. It is open for interpretation, which is part of what makes it so great. You really have to think in order to gather the entire message. I hope to purchase the french version soon.

Loved it!!!
I read "Lair of the Lion" first, and that lead me to read this series. (I love Vampires!!!) I loved this book, seriously didn't disappoint. I plan to read all of this series, and I think anyone else would enjoy it.

Definitely one of the best volumes
This volume pretty much blew my mind away. Flycatcher had usually been such a insignificant character, and now... wow. The whole story was incredible, and I am eager to see what Volume 11 will bring.

TRANSFORMING!
This book has so brought fresh revelation of Jesus Christ and His beauty and work of redemption on the cross!! My husband has been a Pastor for 7 years in a "Word" church and we have bought about 25 copies to give away to friends and family. (and keep buying more!) The only warning this book warrants is "Hazardous to Religious Spirits". Honestly, you will fall in love with Jesus all over again! ...

Blue collar broken dreams
If you have any "blue collar blood" in you, Rick Bragg's writing should appeal to you. In The Prince of Frogtown, he peers into the past of blue collar Americans, specifically mill workers and mountain people of the Appalachians. These are his relatives. Fighting, drinking and cussing are a way of life for them. This is a story of Rick's father, Charles, and the search for the reasons behind ...

Through the looking glass; Physik takes Septimus beyond...
Angie Sage keeps the Septimus Heap series going strong with Physik - the third book after Magyk and Flyte. In Physik we have a complex web of plot elements (no spoilers in this review) that take the narrative deep into the history and architecture of the castle and deeper into a an increasingly sophisticated magical realm. There's more about the forms and uses of magyk in this title, and less ...

Great Book!!
I first read this book when I was eleven years old, and have loved it ever since. I cannot even count the number of times I have re-read it. It is excellently written with a deep plot, well-made characters, and an amazingly believable feel of the world of Ancient Egypt. Even if you are not a fan of ancient Egyptian books, you will soon become interested in the characters and before you know it, ...

Septimus Heap rocks and this set is the best way to get started.
Pitched at 4th-8th graders, the Septimus Heap books are awesome and have wider appeal (my second grade son is now reading the 3rd and his mother and I devoured these with glee). They are well written with relentless page turning pace and, while packed with danger and excitement, light enough not to cause nightmares or anxiety. Septimus Heap novels are situated in a Tolkien-style magical world ...

Intense love between the hero and the heroine
Lots of real tension and development of love between the two main characters in this book. I read it in one sitting, wanting them to fall in love the whole time. If you like books where the focus is on the hero and heroine rather than lots of plot twists, then you will LOVE this book. Love scenes are quite steamy as well...
