EXCELLENT
This was an extremely enjoyable book. I am a twenty-something and I was enthralled....I had to read it before I gave it to my young sister as a gift....I wanted to be sure that it was a good book. I certainly did not want to give her something that did not represent the values that we have. The young girl Abbey rebels against going on the next mission with the sleepers, she is very vain and ...

A Robert Benchley redux?
Way back in the 20th Century, my favorite humorist by far was the redoubtable Bob Benchley. Along with much of America, I mourned the passing of his dry wit and hilarious offbeat observances. Now, with the publication of Chuck Crisafulli and Kyra Thompson's "Go To Hell", I feel a Benchley reincarnation may be afoot. They have gone where Benchley might have dared to tread, embracing with ...

Astonishing, Powerful Articulation of a Non-Obvious Path
R.J. Stewart stands alone as the premiere voice and exponent for the profound inner teachings and "mysteries" of the faery tradition. All others before have not had the capacity or ingenuity with which to speak so clearly; all others after him will forever have to refer to his astonishing work in this book. Where the finite limitations of speech and the constrictions of cultural conditioning ...
Heyday: That Shocking Novel of New York's Lavender Underworld

Michael Viktor Butler
Arbor Books

A great read!
Intricate, captivating and fun. I assume (from the back cover notes) that this is Butler's first novel, but it's hard to believe. He develops characters quickly, draws the reader in and leads them through a complex, at times almost zany, plot. The New York Times review originally caught my attention -- pretty lavish for an unknown -- but now I understand why. I hope Butler's working on his next ...

William James Austin

, 1994
Cartographer of Hell
I think the first word that comes to mind when reading Austin's Underworld series is the poet's driving ambition. These are ambitious poems written in the grand manner of Hart Crane, David Jones and other heroic first and second generation modernists. I applaud this aspect of Austin's work. He attempts to give us a complete vision of the violence and depravity of the city--and sometimes its ...
Approaching Zero: The Extraordinary Underworld of Hackers, Phreakers, Virus Writers, and Keyboard Criminals

Captivating, but disjointed
This book is a bit scattered, and if you're looking for a novel on computer crime this is not it. However, these real life accounts of hacking are fascinating. The authors did a great job researching these accounts and the result is an intreging book that keeps your interest throughout. It's a nine.

Biblical Clues to UFO's
As a person that is knowledgeable of scriptures, I was incredibly rewarded to read this book and see that it wasn't just myself that saw some scriptures that screamed 'more than your pastor is telling you'. There is such an obvious connection between angels, demons, UFO's, creation, miracles and technology. This is not for the closed minded Bible thumpers, but for those of us that are educated, ...

Wonderfully deviant
My Standard Operating Procedure for reading Kaz's "Underworld" is to flip through until I read a page that makes me say out loud "Oh, my God! That's horrible!" Then I put it away for a couple of days until the mood strikes me to flip through it once again. Give copies to all your friends and family and watch with glee as they slowly realize you are not who they thought you were...

, 2006
Chicago Confidential
The detectives were like characters from a 1950s cop show: James Jack, an idealistic young family man; and Frank Czech, the cigar chewing veteran cynic. This is the case that made them both cry. They caught the case on October 16, 1955, when it was simply the puzzle of three young boys who went to a movie on Sunday afternoon and didn't return home that evening. Those pre-Amber alert days ...

The real realms of Faery.
Faery tradition tends to be trivialized in recent books on celtic spirituality, though without malice, this is a harmful practice. Not the case here! RJ Stewart knows his celtic history and spirituality. Yet, his books, including this one are still practical and inspiring. Some of the things you can learn about by reading this book include: Methods you can use to deepen your connection ...

An enjoyable adventure into mythos
If you love to read about adventure, monsters, magic and the horrors of war and brutal human sacrifices then this is the story for you. But, if you enjoy romance then Destiny's Warriors has that for you too. This is a book for everyone of all ages from every walk of life.

Want to understand REAL Authority?
If your spiritual life needs a `booster shot', you can't go wrong with a powerful work by Adrian Rogers. If your spiritual life needs `major renovation', Rogers also has that covered. In fact, if I were to be so bold, Roger's book "The Incredible Power Of Kingdom Authority" could best BE described as two books in one (2002, Broadman & Holman Publishers, 214 Pages). Rogers, known for his ...

Visually superb
This review is intended to compensate for deficiencies in Amazon's usually excellent descriptions of books. This book is the catalog of a traveling exposition of art photographs, taken entirely within Germany, and centered on underground places from historical times to the late 20th century. The bulk of the book, and its main value, lie in the reproductions of 83 color photographs. These are ...
Duh: Underworld 4

Kaz
Fantagraphics Books
, 2001
Delightfully twisted
"Duh: Underworld 4," by Kaz, is a collection of frequently outrageous comic strips. Kaz populates his world with a bizarre crew of recurring characters: Shy Boy, the anally-fixated Petit Mort, tough guy Sam Snuff and his buddy Creep Rat, the Ugly Family, and more. The humor is decidedly adult, and involves such topics as pot smoking, suicide, farting, mental illness, religion, breast size, ...

Fascinating and sane treatment of a controversial subject
So much bunk has been written about Queen Victoria's grandson -- that he was Jack the Ripper or at the very least connected to the Ripper murders, etc. Here at last is a responsible, intelligently researched and extremely readable look at "Prince Eddy" and the real scandals that plagued his short life. Aronson does a wonderful job of depicting the homosexual underworld of Victorian Britain, ...

Having Trouble with Ultima 7? This book is perfect!
Though Caroline Spector has yet to publish a book entailing Serpent Isle, Ultima 8, and Ultima 9, this book is perfectly suited towards its original purpose. It provides handy maps, goods tables, and a straightforward walkthroughs to the Black Gate as well as Ultma Underworld 1, and also the first small parts of Serpent Isle and Underworld 2. I particularly enjoyed reading the novelized ...

FOOT LOOSE AND FANCY FREE!
I read this book many, many years ago and have always wanted to obtain my own copy, and to read it again. I found this book to be UTTERLY FASCINATING...., interesting and a good giggle in places. The author clearly knows his subject, and one learns, for instance, the mystery behind Cinderella's glass slipper. It is NOT only a book for people with foot fetishes. It's a great read and I ...
