Alex Thiele alexthiele — An amazing tear-jerker book. It's an unforgettable, touching story. I had to read this book 2 times over to get enough. The story of Adeline and her fight for freedom, and her father's love is indescribable. Reading this book has made me realize many things, and also opened up my eyes to new cultures.

Sadece Arayüz sadecearayuz — I was reading this when Washington's former Governor Locke made the news as he arrived in China to be our new ambassador-- with his traveler's backpack and buying his own coffee--very simple and humble and so much like Professor Dodd's philosophy of public service just as Hitler rose to power in 1933. I grew to love this decent man and quiet American hero who tried to represent the best of American democracy in an impossible situation. Larson creates a gripping story out of dusty archives and brings the fear of an era to life.

Elena Brusyanskaya cheberinaa448 — Finally got to what I was waiting for but still left a huge amount of things hanging....

Alexey Shadrin _l_hadr — Can be hard to follow, I had to take notes, but it was worth the writing time.

Nicki Patel nickipatel — This is Shakespeare's darkest play not only because of the restricted palette of its images--shades of black occasionally varied with the bright red of blood--but also because, in the play's vicious world of warfare and witchcraft, its hero is half-damned from the start.

Olga Gribanova _elogalea9cc — This is actually a bit of a letdown from the previous six books. My understanding is that McCullough intended the series to end with The October Horse, and it shows. Although "Antony and Cleopatra" is sprawling with history and is quite entertaining, it does feel more obligatory and less passionate than its predecessors, which felt more like a single, massive tale. Brief recap: The October Horse ends with Julius Caesar assassinated and many of the conspirators dead, including Brutus and Cassius. Marcus Antonius (Caesar's cousin) and Octavian (Caesar's grand-nephew and adopted heir) form two-thirds of Rome's Second Trimverate, along with the largely irrelevant Lepidus. Antony and Octavian have essentially carved up the Mediterranean world, with Antony ruling the East like an Alexander, and the still-too-young-for-the-Senate Octavian left to deal with the mess that is Rome proper. Antony seems to have the better of the deal, but his oversized passions and appetites catch up with him as he ages. Octavian, meanwhile, is the underdog with youth, patience, subtlety, and a core of supremely able allies to guide him toward the final confrontation. Each has his setbacks and triumphs, and the Triumvirs cooperate and undermine each other as they see fit. Antony's tendency to live in the present puts him at the disadvantage to Octavian, who plans years ahead. The real challenge in this book is that McCullough seems to have little affection for Antony, magnifying his flaws to create a deeply unsympathetic portrait of the man. Granted, Antony didn't fare much better in CAESAR and The October horse, where his earlier antics were at least somewhat tempered by the lower body count and youthful, er, charm of the outlandish younger man. The bitterness and self-doubt of the co-ruler of the world, after Caesar's near-complete snubbing in his will in favor of the too-young, asthmatic Octavian, results in a horrific death toll in battlegrounds throughout the East. Octavian, likewise, isn't a deeply sympathetic character, but at least the qualities that lead him to become the architect of Imperial Rome are showcased believably, and however insidious some of Octavian's manipulations are, one is left at the end of the book with the sense that Rome is far safer in his hands than in Antony's, which was certainly true. Even before Caesar ditched the presumed heir, Antony had committed massacres, insurrections, and instabilities inside Rome, disqualifying him in Caesar's eyes from the right to rule. Cleopatra, meanwhile, who was fairly sympathetic when connected with Julius Caesar, becomes in many ways everything Octavian's propagandists paint her to be: a deadly threat to Rome. Far from the epic love stories elsewhere, this Cleopatra discovers her love for Antony only near the end of her life; prior to that she is a calculating politician, using Antony to her ends. Though one gets the sense that the two richly deserve each other, even if the rest of the world doesn't deserve them. As in the other books, McCullough makes the ancient world her canvas, including further Spain and Gaul in the West and the farthest reaches of the East. You feel the scope and the limits of Roman influence. The challenges of ruling Rome are also depicted from a variety of angles: piracy and grain prices, ambitions of those who see the vulnerabilities of the still-young, still unproven Octavian, jealousies and intrigues of the Noble Families, and living up to the Divine image and practical expectations of Caesar when others can carry it off with so much less effort. For centuries Romans had a cursus honorum, the course of honor, which decreed at what age a proper Roman politician rose to prominence. The last decades of the Republic saw many breaches of this - from the seven consulships of Marius to the Dictatorship of Sulla, Pompey's early-twenties generalships, the too-young consulship of Young Marius and Pompey, the first Triumverate, and on and on. By the time Octavian grabbed the brass ring at age 18, the Usual was no longer so common. Even so, Octavian revolutionized Roman politics, and this book gives a good feel for how he went about it - and it's often anything but pretty. That's the irony of this book. The man who ushered in the decades of Pax Romana had to change his name to begin the new era for a changed Rome. The events in this book walk us through the last nails in the coffin of the Roman Republic.

Marika Giudice marikagiud — Even though James Frey is a liar, this is still a good read. Just don't eat and read it at the same time. :o)

Lior Mizka _iormizka — I read this in 2006 and recently found my review that I had written right after I finished reading it: my book is goood. i explained the theory of the book to james today and he seem pretty interested in it. y'all know i'm reading my life with corpses, right? the theory goes like this: people die, every day, and they still live. in fictional theory, you have a corpse inside you and it's waiting to come out. people are walking around you all the time but they've already died. Literally, they have died and become corpses, however only the narrator sees them for what they are. But they still function, still living the life they know, they don't usually know they are dead. the narrator is "dying" ie. seeing her corpse more prominently then before (i've had too much to drink and I still like big words!!). the only way to push your corpse back is to live. metaphorically, it's excellent. how many people do you know who have mentally died but their bodies keep functioning?? if you go about your daily life without passion, are you dead? it's really a great book and has so many good passages (which i share below). But, as we've already established, i am interested in death and the way people handle it, so this book may not be for everyone. death is obviously a big part of the plot. "Good. This evening I need a god." (i would just like a god that i could believe in not to tear me apart for fun and games.) "..of course, it was easy to be "faithful" when your definition excluded one-night stands and anything done out of town." "..that when we harm another on purpose, the execution of our intent can form a vector from us to the other, forcing a part of our life down its line to be destroyed as well." (that kills any chance of revenge...) "I no longer needed what he had once been willing to give me. I had unexpected new nourishment for the fragment of life that had survived." (for people trying to suck the life out of you. some part of you can still hang on and fight.) "My thinking was this: if I simply turn around and walk back, and if I do that every time I come to the brink, won't that save me?" (that's my theory as well. so far, i've been able to turn around and walk back.) "When walking blind you might, for instance, come to a brink already occupied by another and that other might be waiting there with no better purpose than to throw you off." (oh yes. i know people like this. they are "dying" and willing to sacrifice you to save themselves.) "There are those who never get enough [life] no matter how much they use up and, so, they grab and take life without reciprocation - the stealers.." "..but it seems that regardless of where we go, we are, as far as cause and effect are concerned, all in exactly the same spot." "We need other people to live and, yet, they might well be killing us, all at the very same time." "We are all carrying our corpses with us, ready for the memorial service." death isn't a morose topic if you approach it right. half a bottle of wine later and i feel the need for a bubble bath.

Stefano Coviello stecoviello — For a children's book this is a very witty and enjoyable bit of escapism. I can't help feeling sorry for the Troll though.

Shohidul Islam firoz_009 — I have been trying to get through this book, but the narrator is so annoying!! I may have to see if the library has it and just finish reading it myself!

Marimba Rojas marimbarojas — Quand on croit que tous les Allemands ont été nazis pendant la seconde guerre mondiale.....on se trompe beaucoup. Voici les histoires croisées de plusieurs Allemands, familles, maris et femmes, dames et messieurs.....qui se sont battus contre le régime imposé par Hitler avec conviction et désespoir, jour après jour, et qui ont souvent perdu la vie pour leur rêve. Il existait un mouvement général et organisé de résistance allemande qui s'appelait la rose blanche. Ils ont été traqué et quasiment tous tués ou réduits au silence.

Nik Carole nikandcarole — Felt like a short episode, that may be read without the novels, because they do a bit of back story delving. It was like a 'welcome back' to the world of Harry Dresden with all the snarkiness, danger, and magic, and spurs me on to catch up on the titles I fallen behind on.

Ariff Abd ariffhamid99 — I really enjoyed this book. It is Butcher's first, and in some places that shows, but overall it was a very good read. The plot kept me interested, and I did not figure out the whodunit until the end.

Anna Hlebutina annahlebutina — Intriguing. I felt very inspired by Daniel.
