better than interview, one of my favorites from the series.

Garrison Keillor featured Max Shulman on his Writer's Almanac, saying that he wrote hilarious material. This was funny, but not THAT funny for me -- young Jewish men schtuping in the 1930s. I don't really appreciate satire enough, though. Someone who really likes satire would probably give this its due credit. If you like satire, I would recommend it. It's not deep; just funny. I continually read portions of this book to my husband and he doubled up laughing EVERY TIME. Boys and schtuping . . . The "potatoes are cheaper" line, by the way, comes from a song in the 1930s that took a positive view of the severe depression . . . at least potatoes are cheaper [now:] . . .

This is a two part books - each story printed back to back - they are based in the established worlds of tales of terror and the mortal engines series. Both are standalone stories but a built upon the ideas in the rest of the series- on one had they are tasters to encourage people to read and try before you by and on the other hand they are an easy way in to a much larger and expansive world (and body of work) these world book day titles are just as exciting and appealing as the main books just smaller- if you can find them they are worth it.

Absolutely cracking, freakishly creative action/adventure mystery - this one had my jaw dropping left and right. It'll make a great movie someday.

This book was doing the rounds amongst my older cousins in about 1983 when I was about 11 years old. I read it at that point and then later watched the tv series starring Richard Chamberlain and Rachel Ward when it hit South African screens about a year or so later. I reread the book when I was in my 20's. I decided to put down a few words about it on a whim as I came across the book while browsing the site. Please bear in mind that I last read this book over a decade ago. While the thought of a celebate Catholic priest loving a woman and fathering a child with her was considered scandalous at the time, recent admissions from factions within the Catholic Church have lessened the degree of shock somewhat. Indeed there are those of Catholic upbringing who might be forgiven for whimsically thinkiing "If only...". I for one, who experienced Catholicism first hand for 8 years at a school founded and run by Brothers, if forced to, would certainly have chosen a scandal about sex between consenting adults than one in which it emerges that randy priests have preyed on children for many years. That said, the book is well written and presents an interesting study in a subject seldom tackled in fiction, viz. the political machinations engineered by an attractive man to woo favour from a wealthy woman - favour which he was able to use to get to the very top of his industry. Froma technical perspective, there were some questions left unanswered. For example, what did Fr. Ralph do to get him transferred to the town where Meggie's childhood is set; or, did he consciously engineer his relationship with Mary Carson. Of course these could have been strategic oversights to enable a sequel (Thorn Birds - the Missing Years?), or perhaps a desire to leave some questions unanswered to force the reader to think about the book. Perhaps the latter is so, as many years later, I still seem to have remembered enough of this book to be able to write about it without having to read other reveiews or google names or places. People have referred to The Thorn Birds as one of the greatest love stories of the modern era, while others have pointed out its paedophilic undertones and portrayal of child seduction. Yes, sometimes people can get a bit too deep. I suggest that you give it a read - even an atheist will find some joy in Meggie's anger with God - and judge for yourself. Writing about it has made me nostalgic so I'm going to go home and fish out my old dog eared copy. I may amend this review after this 3rd reading.

I love love loved this book. I love how this author can capture change in people without getting deep and introspective. This is the 3rd book I've read by her. This book reminded me to see the beautiful world through a child's eyes. It reminded me to relax a little and enjoy the moments of life and not to sweat the small stuff. I know there are horrible things out there, but it made me want to foster parent. It made me want to make a difference in a child's life. And what more uplifting message can there be?

Very entertaining, a plot that zooms along. I enjoyed the characters and little life lessons along the way. A great read for pre-teens. (11)
