Some things were new to me, some not. I got tired of the author's use of "liberalists" and "extreme left wing". I wish he would footnote his research on the actual page he includes the information because bits seemed taken out of context. I did like the suggestions of what to read for more information and the extensive bibliography and index. Overall, I got more frustrated with the government's negative role in our lives, mismanagement of our money, and the lies told to the American public. After reading this book it makes me even more glad I have never chosen a political party. I wouldn't say I'd recommend the book due to it's ability to infuriate but I also wouldn't say not to read it due to the viewpoints it offers.

Maybe I'm getting too old for the Valdemar books. The focus on Kirball just felt like it was lifted from quidditch. Its own rules, of course, and no flying on broomsticks. But having these games in the middle of the book felt like I was reading a Harry Potter wannabe. I still have the Arrows of the Queen novels, as well as the Vanyel trilogy. I could still sit down and read those - I think they were a tighter story and better written than this latest series. Not that this book was all bad. I suspect I know where this is going, and what will tie in, and I'm curious to know how it will all end. I was sucked in enough to care about what happened to Mags. Certainly not as preachy as some of her stuff can be. But she can do better. I know - I've read it.

This is a beautiful book. I received a free copy of this at the MSU Comics Forum and was instantly impressed with the artwork. The plot features both a tornado and fire and Novgorodoff captures the rawness of both within each panel. I wish the narrative could match the art - I really wanted more depth to the verbal story and felt the verbal did not do justice to the visual. The plot concerns an out of place firefighter and a Mexican groom who is working illegally at a Kentucky horse farm, whose paths cross when lightening causes a fire at the farm. However, I think because this book is so visually stimulating, the thread of the narrative continually got lost for me. I repeatedly found myself devouring the panels and paging through without reading a single word. However, regardless of what I felt were narrative shortcomings, this is truly one of the most beautiful graphic stories I have seen.

kind of weird. I wonder why it won a Newberry award?

I found this book slightly confusing primarily because I saved it for subway reading. It got better near the end and all came together in a rather surprising(and pleasing to some including me) end.

This book was a significant improvement on the previous one. I enjoyed the resolution to most of the plot lines. The character development in this novel was well done, and the trilogy as a whole leads well into the original novel. If anything, while these prequel novels certainly do not overshadow the original ones by Frank Herbert, they do set things up well, causing me to want to read the original ones even more. I am glad Brian Herbert and Kevin J Anderson decided to continue the series, their works add much without taking away from the original, and this book was a perfect example of this.

This is a great science-fiction book. I really liked it. It is full of adventure and you don’t know what might happen next. The characters seem real and the author did a great job of making them descriptive and made them act like real teenagers. You really get to know each characters personality. The book is about parents having the ability to choose whether or not to unwind their child between the ages thirteen through eighteen. Being unwound means your life will not go on but your organs will be transplanted into somebody else who needs them. It is about three teens on the run from being unwound. Connor was always a troubled kid who found out his parents wanted him unwound. Risa never had parents and lived in a home who decided to unwind her. Lev was a boy who's life has been tithed to the church. Throughout the book Connor, Risa, and Lev make quick decisions on how to escape close times of being caught by police. They go through obstacles and turns but manage to get by. I really liked how the character actions and thoughts were. It made them seem real. Also the book was so descriptive and I liked how it transitioned from scene to scene. It was like a movie how smooth the scenes transitioned. I really recommend it to teenagers who like sci-fi or who are interested in a future world. Unwind is a great book for people who like interesting adventures and exiting scenes. It is a good book and I really recommend it.

With a penetrating perspective mediated through simple prose, many have regarded the Politics of Experience as R.D. Laing's crowning jewel. I am forced to agree. PoE is rich with deep insights and yet unburdened by a maze of theories (which, if one is so inclined, can be found in his other superb books, such as Self and Others and The Politics of the Family). We are, for the most part, estranged from the inner world. Case in point: Most of us are unaware of its very existence. Thus, as R.D. Laing cautions us: "... from the point of view of a man alienated from his source, creation arises from despair and ends in failure. But such a man has not trodden the path to the end of time, the end of space, the end of darkness, and the end of light. He does not know that where it all ends, there it all begins..." Die to the known and reclaim your spiritual birthright of the Silent Self, the Unmanifest, the ultimate Unknown Reality.
