Sorgulayan Denemeler - Bertrand Russell ücretsiz kitap indir

Brian P _roductions — I was surprised by how much I liked this book. I didn't expect to hate it, but I didn't think I'd enjoy it like I did. I really liked the protagonists - Harry, Storm, and Emma. Although, Emma was my least favorite of the three. Something about her just wasn't quite right. And I found the relationship between Harry and Emma a bit hard to swallow. Something about it just didn't seem right to me. But, I'm able to overlook that. The story itself was well-written and very engaging. I especially liked that there were some occurrences I didn't see coming. It's great when a book surprises me and I can't necessarily see what's coming. Gold of Kings was an engaging, fun, and suspenseful story. I had fun reading it, and will be looking for more books by Davis Bunn.

Bersabeth Caiza betsy14068e1f9 — This 3rd of the Condor trilogy spans 5 generations of Martial Artists, and characters from the earlier novels appear only in spirit. It picks up from the end of Return of Condor Heroes (神雕侠侣), but soon winds its way to the founding of Wu Dang. It isn't until vol 2 of 4 that the main character is even born. Part of my problem with the book is that the main character himself does not have enough charisma to carry the story. He is a boy scout. And a somewhat subconscious player. Therefore, he goes through the book mostly confused, and having no great aspirations of his own. The title of the book refers to two sharp weapons that were rumored to grant you unlimited power in the Martial Arts world, so naturally everyone chases after it. But really, the central themes are father-son relationships, and good bad guys/bad good guys. This book continues the trend started in Return of Condor Heroes in describing the superficial moral superiority of the "moral" martial arts sects that hide pettiness and dogma, as well as the earnest respect and relationships underlying the unkosher behaviors of the "evil" sects. The main character, with a "good" father and an "evil" mother, leads an "evil" Persian cult and associates with "evil" Mongols. (This theme is refined in 笑傲江湖). Historically speaking, the novel has an interesting account of a Persian cult, the founding and theories of Wu Dang, as well as China under Mongol rule. Unlike his later novels, the idea of Confucian Han vs. Steppe Barbarians is still very strong. It almost seems to be a book of tying up loose ends that you didn't even know existed.
