Andrew Gabriel andrewgsm — Finally, a book that lives up to its reputation! This book was wonderful, as promised. I was particularly impressed with the pace of the novel which always seemed just right, despite frequent changes in time and action.

Mathieu Nantel _antel_hotographe — fun read, totally absurd future distopia where everyone has plastic surgery to become "pretty" on their 16th birthday. good teenybopper book about body image. plus a little sci-fi never hurts...

Jane Lee janey98f3ae — When I read Liar’s Moon, by Philip Kimball, I was fully expecting just another cheesy portrayal of the West. But what I found was a lushly beautiful portrait of an unforgiving, developing world. This book, published in 1999, maintains the gritty and unabashed realism McCarthy made us love, but somehow manages to give us a little bit of that barely-believable mythology that surrounded many of the old western figures. The story follows the narratives of several different characters as they all converge. There’s Brother, a wandering preacher in search of his lost brother; Autumn Tallgrass, a young white girl abducted by Indians when she was a little girl, raised as one of their own; Cannonball, a freed slave trying to make a name for himself driving herds and causing havoc (famous first words: ”It was the whiskey made me do it.” [pg. 50:]); among others. Each of the characters maintains a unique voice, written with so many little nuances that you can hear the character’s voice in your head as you read along. That there are two kids raised by wolves thrown in the mix only makes the story that much more intriguing, especially since they’re the ones who tie the all those little stories together. I definitely recommend checking out this novel–or as the author calls it: “Long Story”–even for those that aren’t big Western fans. It’s an amazing story of America’s sordid adolescence, peppered with more than enough great stories and characters to keep you reading it non-stop. Philip Kimball has a keen ear for style and tone, as well, which makes the read a pure pleasure. For more on book, see: http://bravenewworks.com/?p=80

Paul Jarvis jarvis_p — My interest flagged after the telling of the ill-fated polar expedition of 1910-13; there's a lot of detail here about that. Cherry lived a fascinating life, well a few years of it was anyway to be sure, but first-rate adventure comes up against third-rate personality. In many ways this is an attempt to write the biography of a man whose big moment had been lived before he reached the age of thirty, and who shows little intellectual growth past his pampered public school days. "The world spun away from Cherry," writes Wheeler, and similarly her narrative struggles to find an anchor after 1913.
