Customer Review: Crichton was great at word pictures. In an entertaining, action-packed way the story shows clearly the lunacy of the environmentalist religion called "Global Warming." Incredibly well researched. Read it!
Customer Review: It took me a couple tries to get into this book... multi inch think books can be a bit daunting. However, once I was through the first section I quickly found myself infatuated. The interweaving of multiple different story lines into one tale makes for an interesting read.
Customer Review: It seems that the author was too committed to trying to tie chess and the number eight to everything in life regardless of how ridiculous the plot needed to be to make it happen. Characters were pretty simple, and the "logic" explaining thier actions just didn't make sense much of the time. I... more info
Customer Review: I've read the preceeding books in Brad Thor's Scot Harvath series. They usually read like they were meant to be easily adapted to silly Hollywood action films--except they are too patriotic to be made by Hollywood. And if I have to read about Scot Harvath's rugged good looks and muscular 5'10"... more info
Customer Review: Very well put together. Just when you think you have it figured out the plot takes a new twist and sends you in a different direction. Definitely worth the time.

The agent that emerges by novel's end is grim, resourceful and... more info
Customer Review: Abstract: Read this book if you want to learn a lot about the ethical/moral/practical issues related to genetic engineering in a short time. Do not read it if you expect a smooth, "idle brain" leisure-time novel.
Full review: There is a thin layer of society (scientists and few lawyers) that... more info
Customer Review: I enjoyed the book, it was fast passed and held my attention. James Rollins is a good author. This is the third book I've read by him, and they all have the same plot, similar characters, but a different environment. I say it's typical Rollins because just like the others I've read he has a personal... more info
Customer Review: You Only Live Twice is Connery's best portrayal of 007. Here, an accident happens in space which pushes Earth closer and closer to World War III, and now, James Bond is sent to Japan to investigate, when all of a sudden, he stumbles upon a Japanese space base, which plans to launch a satellite and... more info
Moonraker from Blackstone Audiobooks Price: $39.95
Customer Review: This is only the second Bond book I've read recently, the other being Doctor No (James Bond Novels) (Although I've read one, One Her Majestys' secret Service, I think, many years ago). It didn't live up to my expectations. It's a short novel, but the pace is still slow, and not until the last third... more info
