My eight-year-old son loves these books. I read A Wrinkle in Time and A Wind in the Door when I was a child, and I loved both so much that I about wore the ink off the pages re-reading them. My son received this boxed set from his cousin, and we started reading them together. The books themselves are well-made. I've gotten box sets (of other series) that were flimsy, ...             The Buenos Aires Quintet (Five Star Fiction S.)2 reviews Manuel Vázquez Montalbán Five Star, 2006 Discover this author I first found out about Manuel Vázquez Montalbán while reading a book by Andrea Camilleri, Italy's most popular living writer, who specializes in literary detective novels. The name of Camilleri's usual protagonist is Commissario Montalbano -- a literary character as famous in modern Italy as Hercule Poirot or Inspector Maigret have been in other times and places. An Italian friend explained ...             In Sylvan Shadows: The Cleric Quintet, Book II3 reviews R.A. Salvatore Wizards of the Coast, 2009 A superior fantasy novel In R.A. Salvatore's second novel of "The Cleric Quintet" series, R.A. Salvatore brings us some his best writing outside of the Dark Elf series. Break neck pacing, intriguing plot, well done character development and growth, hilarious comedic relief, basically, everything you want in a novel, the author packed into this novel. "In Sylvan Shadows," for me, can be counted among the few novels ...             Canticle: The Cleric Quintet, Book I46 reviews R.A. Salvatore Wizards of the Coast, 2009 Why don't I know any clerics like this?? :) I hadn't read this book in years, so I thought I'd give it another whirl, and the book doesn't disappoint. If you're a fan of the Drizzt Do'Urden tales, you'll find some of the characters in this book pop up later on, which I was really thrilled by. The book revolves primarily around Cadderly, a young priest of Deneir, who is more concerned with inventing things than studying his religion. ...             The Chaos Curse: The Cleric Quintet, Book V1 review R.A. Salvatore Wizards of the Coast, 2009 Great Book This whole series has been a new and amazing idea for me. It delves into the world of priests, unlike all of the other R.A.Salvatore themes. The Chaos Curse is a must have for all R.A.Salvatore readers.             The Fallen Fortress (Forgotten Realms: The Cleric Quintet, Book 4)11 reviews R. A. Salvatore Wizards of the Coast, 2000 An outstanding book! I will give this book all my 5 stars and highest compliments, I hope any of you who have followed the series enough so far didn't get off course with the horrible reivews people have put in, this book is by far one of the greatest in this series, the series is great the characters are well developed and they do continue to develop unlike what other people have been saying, this book is basically ...             The Cleric Quintet Collector's Edition68 reviews R. A. Salvatore Wizards of the Coast, 2002 Epic fantasy tale - and thoroughly engaging I've read some of the Drizzt books, and really enjoyed them, so when I saw 5 Salvatore books for under $15, I was pretty excited. I read through this >1000 page series of 5 books (probably 1500 pages in regular paperback size), over the past few weeks. I was thoroughly engaged, and found myself staying up late and waking up early to get a little more reading time in between work and real life. ...             The Chaos Curse (Forgotten Realms: The Cleric Quintet, Book 5)22 reviews R. A. Salvatore Wizards of the Coast, 2000 A fitting conclusion to the saga On my first read through this series, years ago, I felt that Salvatore fell into a common writer's trap of overpowering the main character, to near god-like status. In many respects, I still feel that way, even though I recognize that he did make attempts along the way to temper that power. The book is the final installment in the Cleric Quintet, and if you have not read the prior 4 books, I ...             Canterbury Quintet : The General Prologue & Four Tales : A Reader-Friendly Edition1 review Geoffrey Chaucer Little Leaf Press, 2000 An Excellent Edition of Chaucer's Masterpiece Though this isn't a complete edition of The Canterbury Tales, it does contain the most famous stories plus the prologue. The Middle English text is retained with modernized spelling. Also included are copious side notes on archaic words and uses (eke = also, clep = call, etc.). Footnotes on more involved passages are also included. This helps resolve some of the more perplexing bits. ...             The Dragon Quintet7 reviews Orson Scott Card, Tanith Lee, ... Tor Fantasy, 2006 And now for something a little different... Overall, I thought this was quite a good collection of stories, and I found the majority of it interesting. Unfortunately, the first story in it, by Orson Scott Card, was a tad dull, and I kept putting it down because it was just not gripping enough to hold my interest. It wasn't really bad, but then it wasn't really great. The dialogue between characters in the story was excellent, though, ...             The Avignon Quintet2 reviews Lawrence Durrell Faber and Faber, 2004 Flawed but worthwhile I came upon Lawrence Durrell through his first best-selling book Justine, which was the first of the Alexandria Quartet series. The Quartet was Durrell's high water mark, in which his strengths outweighed his weaknesses. If you enjoy poetic prose, the rise and fall of sound, and a craftsmanship of language which appears too infrequently in this world, you'll enjoy Durrell's Quartet and, to a ...             Fancy Nancy Collector's Quintet (I Can Read Book 1)10 reviews Jane O'connor HarperCollins, 2009 Very Cute! One of my favorite Christmas purchases. It might not have had the pazzaz as some of the other gifts upon the initial opening, but my daughter has asked me to read all of these books every night for a week. We both enjoy them. The little carrying case is great for little hands.             Night Masks: The Cleric Quintet, Book III1 review R.A. Salvatore Wizards of the Coast, 2009 great book a must read great book, i have all of the ra salvatore books, he is a great writer.             Quintet: Five Journeys Toward Musical Fulfillment David Blum Cornell University Press, 1999 Quintet presents compelling portraits of five artists known and loved by aficionados of classical music: the cellist Yo-Yo Ma, the conductor Jeffrey Tate, the violinist Josef Gingold, the pianist Richard Goode, and the opera singer Birgit Nilsson. This gracefully written book offers a deeply personal look at the lives of these immensely talented and hard-working performers. The essays grew out of conversations the musicians had with the late ...             Complete Chamber Music for Strings and Clarinet Quintet2 reviews Johannes Brahms Dover Publications, 1968 Excellent! Very interesting edition. Noteheads are large and well readable. The preface is very interesting, and lists some passages found in Brahms' autographs that were crossed out and rewritten (e.g. the beginning of the Clarinet Quintet). Hans Gal (the editor) made a great work in preparing this edition!             A Sultan in Palermo (2006 paperback edition) (Vol. 4) (The Islam Quintet)5 reviews Tariq Ali Verso, 2006 Islam Quintet A sultan in palermo was the perfect final book to a wonderfully written series by tariq ali. i thoroughly enjoyed the whole group and was swept along with the main characters in all four of the books. the story of muhammad al-idrisi was supberly written, full of statesmanship, scholarship, and love. i highly recommend the whole series to anyone interested in the history of islam and of europe's ...             Know Nothing: Book III of the Beulah Quintet (Beulah Quintet/Mary Lee Settle, Bk 3)3 reviews Mary Lee Settle University of South Carolina Press, 1996 Septuagenarian author tells it how it was/is. I had vainly considered myself to be fairly knowledgable about current American writers until that beautiful Sunday morning of 7 September 97 when I turned to the Book World section of my Washington Post and read an essay written by a septuagenarian author named Mary Lee Settle. She told it like it is, revealing how the literary marketplace of modern-day America has slid into a disgraceful ...             The Ultimate Fryer Cookbook (Quintet Book)7 reviews Wendy Sweetser Running Press, 2004 Great cookbook Nice photos and simple to follow.
