My three -year -old son is crazy about this book . It 's practically the only book he wants to use for story time , which gets a little old . It 's great for kids who get bored with just one picture and one short phrase on each page . My son loves checking out all the busy pictures - with all the fun vehicles .

Great read . I learned a lot about the Hundred Years . This sequel to Book 1 is a real page turner . I couldn 't put it down . Most of the unresolved issues came to fruition . I 'm a bit partial to Bernard Cromwell because of the 13 books I read on Richard Sharp and the Napoleonic wars . This story takes you back to 1346 and the 1st of 3 major English triumphs in the Hundred Years War . I 'm looking forward to the Agincourt battle but the protagonist of the Novel will be in his 90 's , double his life expectancy .

The Hobbit book gets better with each read . I was compelled to read again after watching Peter Jackson 's final instalment in his Hobbit trilogy . What a let down the movies are ! Reading the book again was akin to cleansing the palate after tasting something bitter (the movies ) . Not saying the movies didn 't have their good parts but to stray so much from the spirit of the book was disappointing to watch . Glad I could go back to the book and remember why I loved the story so much .

The Kindle version of For Whom the Bell Tolls is not very good . I don 't know if that is because it is an abridged version like other reviewers claim or whether its just not a good story . If the Kindle version is indeed abridged , I would have expected Amazon .com to alert buyers that it was so . Basically , For Whom the Bell Tolls is the story of a critical mission by a band of rebels accompanied by an American sympathizer fighting for the Republic against the Fascists in Spain during the Spanish Civil War ( 1936 -1939 ) . The rebels mission was to blow up a bridge , but the interplay among the characters leading up to the attack dominate the story .

C . S . Lewis has a wonderful talent for explaining Christianity in simple , clear terms . Example : "You don 't have a soul . You are a soul . You have a body .

Finally , like the Apostle Paul , he became one of Christianity 's greatest proponents . This book relates the conclusions of his personal journey to faith .

This is not a typical fantasy story , it 's a never ending series of well -described events involving perfectly profiled characters in a wonderful setting .

What a great story ! Aubrey is in trouble by land and sea because of bad decisions and yet brilliant at sea when it comes to sailoring and battle tactics where O ' Brian has never swayed with regard to the captain . Aubrey is endeared to me as a reader because he 's brilliant , doesn 't know it or dwell on it , in his element . He is the polar opposite of brilliant in personal matters , knows it and dwells on it . What a great balance in story telling because I , as a reader , worry about Aubrey every moment one foot is ashore and I 'm concerned for him at sea but feel that every sea encounter will end as well as it can which doesn 't mean with success . This is another great installment by O 'Brian and I highly recommend it .

This is one of my top ten classic reading choices , and it pairs well with a reading of George Orwell 's 1984 . Huxley shows us a world where entertainment has become the center and everyone just wants to have a good time . He conveys tragedy in his story , and provides some scientific detail to ground the story in believability without being cumbersome . I recommend this as a dystopian classic , and I also recommend reading it with Entertaining Ourselves to Death by Neil Postman , as Postman applies the concepts in the book to a critique of the real world .

Nothing happens and those things that do happen just piss you off . . . the book go no where and once you hit the last 5 chapters you want to throw it out the window becuase of what happens to a certain character . . . I loved all the other books , this one just dragged its feet and dissapoints severally . Not sure if I even want to purchase the last 2 in the series when they appear in 2035 ~ only took what 5 years for this one . . . . /rant

Well written and easy to follow . I have been camping many times , but this puts things in a different perspective . Might be a life saver if you throw this in your BOB (but go ahead and read it first ) . I would pair this with a better reference book on plants to eat (with pics ) and you should be set for any SHTF situation .

I have multiple copies of the Hobbit . This one is so I can enjoy the beautiful illistrations by Alan Lee . The story of the Hobbit is great for all ages , it really sucks you in . Tolkien 's descriptions are so vivid . It 's a great adventure .

I was extremely disappointed by this book . Instead of providing a thoughtful explanation of Christianity , the author dishes out his trite biases against women , gays and others . His analysis of why Jesus should be accepted as the divine son of God is that , in the Bible Jesus says that is who he is , Jesus was either that or mad , and we know he wasn 't mad , therefore , he was divine . I don 't have to read a book to get that . I could ask a 10 -year old after Sunday school what he thinks .

Great story . Dialogue , action , puns , sarcasm , realism . One of the best in the Aubrey / Maturin series . If you 're new to the series , start at the beginning with "Master and Commander " . Probably a scooch better than the Hornblower series .

Incredible series . I can not put these books down . Did not even expect them to be this amazing ! There are so many different characters and storylines that sometimes I get confused or if I didn 't have time to read for a while - it is so well written that , even if I don 't have a clue what 's going on , I am nevertheless constantly hooked . Pure reading ecstasy . : )

I read this story in preparation for a trip to Australia and New Zealand . It is well written and well documented , but it is a grim story . I am glad I read it , but actually I had to start skimming it and interspersing it with more joyful stories . It is a tale of cruelty , often "man 's inhumanity to man " . But it is a story that needs to be known as the first settlers of Australia lived this life and endured the hardships related here . When I visit the countries , I will have a better understanding of the foundation of their world .

I saw this in a bookstore several years ago , and not since . I 'm very glad to have found it here on Amazon . It 's wonderful to see Pauline Baynes 's illustrations (in color ! ) throughout the book , some of which I had never seen before . I do wish it had a better shot of the Baynes map of Narnia than what 's on the covers , arguably the best Narnia map available , but it is an excellent copy of the Chronicles for the money , and I highly recommend it .

I used this book for my theater class . I only bought is since it was around 5 $ . I was happy with the translation , although I feel as though Hamlet is the least difficult Shakespeare play to read . I enjoy how in the first couple pages there is a description of the characters and who they are since sometimes it is easy to forget .
