What a wonderful conclusion to a fabulous series! I've loved this trilogy from the word "Go" because it engaged so many parts of my brain and interests. The side of my that enjoys engineering and science was completely enthralled by the descriptions and pictures of the fabricated beasts and Clanker machines. I also love historical fiction, so the setting was perfect for me. So many elements came together in these books, and I enjoyed each one immensely. One of the main points in Goliath is the introduction of Nikola Tesla, an electrical and mechanical engineer who claims to possess the weapon that will end the war completely. Having had a nasty run-in with a Tesla Cannon in Behemoth, the crew of the Leviathan is none too pleased to take Tesla on board and transport him to New York City, where his weapon is housed. Dr. Barlow, the "lady boffin" who has been on board the Leviathan for their entire journey, isn't exactly trusting and sends Alek and Deryn to do some investigating. Alek seems quite taken with Tesla, believing that he can help Alek achieve his destiny. Especially since Tesla seems to have switched from the Clanker side to the Darwinist side, much as Alek himself seems to have done. I must say, when it came to the revelation of Deryn's great secret, Alek took it better than I thought he would. I don't want to say much more on the issue, except that throughout the series, Alek has held very strong opinions on the proper stations for men and women. A female in the British Air Service most definitely not fit into his views, and Deryn has been wary of this since she realized her feelings for him. It's definitely a test for Alek and turns his opinions upside down. There are reappearances of familiar faces, like Lillit and the disgusting reporter, Eddie Malone. There are also a few American women who come on the scene and give Deryn an idea of the kind of freedom and options she may have one day. I know I've mentioned it before in my posts about the previous books in the series, but I want to draw attention again to Keith Thompson's illustrations. Coming up with the visuals for all the machines mentioned, and bringing them to life in such amazing detail is such an awesome accomplishment. It brings to much life to the story and add a whole other dimension. They add a whole new level of enjoyment because there's no way I could have come up with those images on my own. I love the bits of pop culture from the early 1900s that are put in the novel. I was watching Beach Blanket Bingo the other day, which is a Frankie Avalon / Annette Funicello movie from the 60s (a HUGE weakness of mine) and there was a reference to The Perils of Pauline. I'm pleased to saw that I knew what they were talking about because of this book. :) I've loved this series and these characters so much! I'm sad the trilogy is over, but it was such a great ending and wrap up. The Leviathan trilogy is definitely going on my all time favorites list!

The Chemical Brothers ‎– Push The Button CD TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından:

An early story, reworked by a more mature writer, i have lost my copy and wish i could compare with the original version. The People live in the depths of The Carpet foraging and hunting. A peacable folk (barring the usual drunken punches up) their world is catastriphically altered by an attack of Fray. This is their story and is beautifully crafted. The parallels between the Carpet and the real world are subtle and much debate has been generated into the exact nature of Fray. This book can be read as a childrens morality tale, or something much more adult.

I read this book several years ago while I was in college and I don't remember it being "dull" or "boring." Maybe it was because at the time I had recently been in Egypt and therefore connected with his accounts of Egyptian village life... but I enjoyed it enough that I bought a copy several years later because I had enjoyed it so much.

ORIGINALLY POSTED AT Fantasy Literature. I read and enjoyed Kushiel’s Dart years ago after it won the Locus Award for Best First Novel and I’ve recently re-read it so that I can finish the series (I’ve read only the first trilogy) and move on to Ms. Carey’s newer books. This time I listened to Tantor Audio’s version, which was read by the incredibly talented Anne Flosnik. The Kushiel series is set in an alternate Europe which is easily recognized by its geography, language, culture, religion, mythology, and politics (e.g., ancient Tiberium is ancient Rome, Alba is England, the Yeshuites are Christians, the Tsingani are gypsies, etc.). The greatest difference in this alternate Europe is the religion, for when Yeshua hung on the cross, his shed blood mingled with the Magdalene’s tears and produced Elua, who roamed the Earth in the company of the angel Naamah who supported him by working as a prostitute. Eventually he was accepted in Terre d’Ange (France), a passionate land upon whom he bestowed his beauty and whom he taught to “love as thou wilt.” And so they do, with little restraint and without any pesky hang-ups about heterosexuality or monogamy. In fact, men and women serve Naamah as sacred prostitutes in the Night Court. Phèdre has been rejected by the Night Court because of the scarlet mote in her eye. But scholar Anafiel Delaunay recognizes the blemish (it’s Kushiel’s Dart) and what it symbolizes: Phèdre is the first anguissette born in decades — she finds sexual pleasure in pain, and the unique services she can provide will be highly valuable to certain unconventional patrons. Anafiel purchases, fosters, and trains Phèdre for his own unknown political machinations and hires Joscelin Verreuil, a warrior vowed to celibacy, to protect her. And so Phèdre serves Naamah and Anafiel by loving as she wilt (and wilting as she loves) and she and Joscelin are soon caught up in dangerous court intrigues. It sounds kind of sleazy, with all the BDSM and the bastardized version of Christianity, but in Jacqueline Carey's hands it isn't sleazy — it's decadent. Mostly what sets it apart is the writing style which is beautifully lush, and even more gorgeous when read by Anne Flosnik’s rich smooth voice in the audio version: "I was flawed... To be sure, it was my eyes; and not even the pair of them, but merely the one. Such a small thing on which to hang such a fate. Nothing more than a mote, a fleck, a mere speck of color. If it had been any other hue, perhaps, it would have been a different story. My eyes, when they settled, were that color the poets call bistre, a deep and lustrous darkness, like a forest pool under the shade of ancient oaks. Outside Terre d'Ange, perhaps, one might call it brown, but the language spoke outside our nation's bounds is a pitiful thing when it comes to describing beauty. Bistre, then, rich and liquid-dark; save for the left eye, where in the iris that ringed the black pupil, a fleck of color shone... And it shone red, and indeed, red is a poor word for the color it shone. Scarlet, call it, or crimson; redder than a rooster's wattles or the glazed apple in a pig's mouth... Thus did I enter the world, with an ill-luck name and a pinprick of blood emblazoned in my gaze." I should mention that one issue I had with the audio version is that many of the unfamiliar French-sounding names seemed similar when read aloud and it took me longer to distinguish all the characters than it did when I read them in print. It will help to be able to look at the Dramatis Personae in the front of the book if you listen to the audiobook. There is a map in the book also, but this isn’t necessary since the geography is an alternate Europe. The plot is complex and the political maneuvering is intriguing, there’s plenty of adventure, and the characters are colorful. But my favorite thing about Kushiel’s Dart is Joscelin. He is one of the best male heroes in fantasy literature. Tall, strong, quiet, serious, courageous, deadly, and passionate, all he has to do is stand there wearing his mail gauntlets and steel vambraces and I’m completely entertained.

I really loved the book Cold Mountain by this author, and I couldn't wait to read this, his most recent book. I love the way Frazier tells this tale; a comfortable, slow, but beautifully painted story of one man's epic lifetime. Shuffled off as a boy to make his own life, the Native Americans who adopted him, his horse, and the woman he was to love so intensely all of his life only to lose her. Her memory haunts him still, as an old man shuffling around his house, hearing her voice on the newly-installed telephone. And I should have known going into it that, being a Frazier book, it wasn't going to end on exactly a high note. But like Cold Mountain, it did at least end with some amount of hope, and satisfaction.

A great collection of short stories. I think I liked this one better than his other collection, Wolves in Their Youth. Some of the stories fit together loosely in the second half of the book. It's amazing how far Chabon can pull you in in such a short number of pages. hands down, my favorite living writer since Vonnegut is now dead. P( sad pirate.

This is the very best kind of travel writing, in my opinion. Augias uses narrative vignettes to uncover some of the richness of Rome's past.

5 stars if not for the swift ending. I laughed, I felt sad (did you think I was going to say? "I cried"?...what do'ya think I'm some kinda wuss?) but for real, with just a few dots or one panel Luen Yang was able to do a little yank on my inside that left me sad, surprised and impressed.

this one's ok... would i give it the pulitzer? no. did it get the pulitzer? yes.* does his representation of "the sea" seem to differ with every poem? yes. does that make it more intellectual? possibly. more annoying? yes. i give it a five for cover art. and i'll say there are specific poems that are clear and enchanting. ("2002," "the rose," "2032," "mother and son") but i can't give the book overall more than a three. of course, i don't even have a clue how they choose who gets the pulitzer. *This book did not win the Pulitzer. See comments below.
