Shadow of Cain: A Novel2 reviews
Vincent Bugliosi, Ken Hurwitz

W. W. Norton & Company, 1981

IT WAS VERY HARD TO PUT DOWN

I thought the book was fantastic and the writing of this book made it seem so real. I thought it was, so I got on the computer and tried to find information about Ray Lomack and could not and when I didn't have any luck doing so I realized the book must have been fiction. You see I borrowed it ...
  
  











  



  
Monster Planet: A Zombie Novel16 reviews
David Wellington

Running Press, 2007

Good book so far

+ A good end to a good series of books.

I haven't finished this book yet but it is good so far. I am reading it to finish the Monster trilogy. Overall, the trilogy is OK. It is a little far-fetched or supernatural. i was expecting a standard zombie-type book.

On the Road (Penguin Classics)37 reviews
Jack Kerouac

Penguin Classics, 2002

So that is what the fuss is about

+ A book of people and places
+ Inspiring Read

Oftentimes I've heard so much about a writer's amazing talent only to be disappointed when I get around to reading his/her work. Ayn Rand falls into this category to a degree and Bukowski falls all the way into it--but not Kerouac. I don't know if Jack captured the heartbeat of a generation. I ...

Apathy and Other Small Victories55 reviews
Paul Neilan

St. Martin's Griffin, 2007

Absolutely hilarious

+ Hilarious
+ gator72

All of my friends said, "You have to read David Sedaris." And I did. I chuckled a few times, but couldn't help thinking, "Is this really as funny as literature gets?" Paul Neilan answered that questioned for me with a resounding 'No.' He tears everything and everyone a new one in his debut ...

The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder222 reviews
Vincent Bugliosi

Vanguard Press, 2008

Calling All Editors

+ A lot of questions for Mr. Bugliosi???????????????????

My future son-in-law, Kenny Rojas, was killed by an IED in Bayji,Iraq on October 29,2005. He was 21. I read a Stephen Spender poem at his closed-casket funeral. His death destroyed his family and devastated ours. Believe me, there is NO ONE who would like to see George W. Bush prosecuted for ...
  
  











  



  
Monster Island: A Zombie Novel77 reviews
David Wellington

Running Press, 2006

Outstanding Zombie Novel!!

+ Great concept, crumbles a little towards the end.
+ A solid and inventive zombie movie... er, book.

I've read many horror novels before, but never one dealing with zombies. Okay, a bit of a lie there. I read Cell by Stephen King. Loved it. And I've seen 90% of the zombie movies made (the legit ones, that is), and am a huge Romero fan. This book was something different. Not better, not worse. Just ...

This book was every bit as good as the first. The author is a great guy too. He let me mail him a copy to personally autograph for my mom's birthday. My mom read it then my two brothers. We are all waiting for the third in the trilogy.
  
  











  



  
Monster Nation: A Zombie Novel35 reviews
David Wellington

Running Press, 2006

A different flavor of Z book

+ Free SF Reader

I got the whole trilogy and read them in order thankfully. Monster Nation was my favorite of the 3 and dveloped a few interesting characters. The writing style seemed a bit complex compared to other "undead" based books I have read. The trilogy one was more in depth and had a supernatural ...
