The Titan's Curse.......2007-10-10
This book is a my daughter's favorite! My nine year old daughter loved this whole series and wouldn't leave me alone until I got her the 2nd (and ultimately the 3rd) book. She loved the hidden twists and turns to the story. She thought the book was quite exciting. She likes the mix of ancient mythology and action. She reads one to two 100+ books a week and this is her Favorite series, by far, of all the books she has read.
Simply Outstanding!.......2007-09-23
I think The Titan's Curse is an oustanding book. It will enchant readers so that they will never put the book down! I'd say it is as good as any Harry Potter book. This book is a must have for kids around 10 years old. The Titan's Curse is about the gods and the titans. Kronos' forces are putting him back together piece by piece! Artemis chases an important monster and she is caught by Luke and Atlas. Annabeth is also trapped. 5 campers from Camp Half Blood are sent on a quest to free Artemis. There is a prophecy that says when one specific half blood turns 16 he or she will save the gods or destroy the gods. It could be Percy Jackson or Thalia. This thrilling story will get people hooked immediately!
A Titan of a Tale.......2007-09-01
This book thoroughly lives up to the quality of adventure and plot seen in the first two. It still has the savvy wit, and yet the characters are still visibly growing. I'm excitedly looking forward to the next book, because I absolutely have to know what happens next. :)
Can't get enough!.......2007-08-26
Although I was a little concerned at the new angle taken on this book, it was still a wonderful read. Percy is now growing into the role he was destined for and understands the struggle for power in the mortal and Olympian worlds. This series is a must read for Harry Potter fans! Adults will love this series as much as young adults!
Riordan Roars!.......2007-08-23
After the second book came out and disappointed, I wasn't sure that this series was going to last, but I'm happy to report that this entry might be the best of them all. The plot zips along, and the heroes engagement in lively battles, dialogue, and interpersonal relationships ring with some of the best written work in memory for a novel of this genre.
An excellent adventure filled with action, humor, and humanity. Not to mention the cutest sea monster in history.

Breaking the Curse.......2007-09-17
Breaking the Curse of Willie Lynch is a profoundly insightful book. It is evident that a significant amount of research was done in preparation of this writing. I was in awe at how Mr. Alvin Morrow incorporated not only history but science nutrition and spiritually in the development and breaking of slavery. I have recommended this book to so many of my peers and look forward to ordering more copies for African-American children in the public school system. Too many Black and White children are unaware of the "true" history of this country and the causes and effects of slavery. I think this book would create at the least curiosity in the minds of any individual willing to learn more about the damage of slavery.
It's Still Working.......2007-05-13
The Willie Lynch method of controlling your slave: turn the old against the young, the light against the dark the male against the female and cause them to believe that you (the master) hold the key to their happiness. This science worked three hundred years ago and still works today. Fortunately more of the affected group are becoming enlighted and no longer believing in the science of slave psychology. But some have not seen the light. They do not read and do not listen. I wish that everybody no matter the ethnic identification will read this book. I believe this knowledge will help bring unity.
BREAKING THE CURSE OF WILLIE LYNCH.......2007-02-22
THIS BOOK LITERALLY CHANGED THE WAY A THOUGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING IN THIS COUNTRY. ALL BLACK PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY SUFFER FROM CURSE OF WILLIE LYNCH. HE DEVELOPED A PLAN TO CONTROL ALL BLACK PEOPLE FOR OVER 300 YEARS AND IT HAS BEEN A SUCCESS. WE STILL ARE CONTROLLED BY THIS CURSE AND MANY BLACK PEOPLE DON'T EVEN REALIZE IT. PLEASE GET INFORMED ON WHAT HAS TAKEN PLACE IN HISTORY AND ALWAYS BE AWARE OF WHAT IS GOING ON NOW IN THE 21ST CENTURY. SLAVEERY IS STILL GOING ON IN THIS COUNTRY, BUT NOW IT IS MORE MENTAL THAN PHYSICAL. WE HAVE BEEN TAUGHT TO HATE OURSELVES AND SETTLE FOR LESS ON EVERY ENDEAVOR IN LIFE. BLACK PEOPLE EVERYWHERE.. THIS IS NOT BY ACCIDENT OR BY MISTAKE. THIS IS THE WORLD WE LIVE IN TODAY AND WE ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN CHANGE IT BY BEING EDUCATIONED AND GOING TO COLLEGE. THE AUTHOR OF THIS BOOK REALLY DID HIS HOMEWORK BECAUSE THE BOOK IS A STEP BY STEP METHOD OF CONTROL THAT WILLIE LYNCH DESIGNED HIMSELF. THE SAD THING ABOUT THIS BOOK IS THAT IT IS ALL TRUE AND IT STILL IS IN PRACTICE TODAY.
Removing the blinders.......2007-01-11
This is an excellent book, if you want to understand the terrible system
of slavery, and it's present day ramifications this is a must read book.
paradise Island
C&B Reviewer Tanya Bates - .......2006-05-28
Alvin Morrow explains the methods of the Willie Lynch Letter in terms that anyone can understand. The ability to break down these effects are uncanning. With each new chapter, Black men and women are able to see how these brutal mental conditioning methods first used in slavery, affect each Black person today. Also, honest solutions are provided to promote unity, allow for healing, and ultimately freedom from these damaging mentalities.

Book Description
The Curse of Lono is to Hawaii what Fear and Loathing was to Las Vegas: the crazy tales of a journalist's "coverage" of a news event that ends up being a wild ride to the dark side of Americana.
Customer Reviews:
One of the best and funniest I have read!.......2007-06-07
It is a must read for people wanting to know more about Hawaii. I especially liked the section where he makes merciless fun of the Kona Board of REALTORS. The drug culture of the 60s revisited?!
One of his finest.......2006-11-10
Set behind the scenes of Hawaii during the 80's, the docter's portrayal of hawaii is by far one of his finest books. Growing up in hawaii, I recommend this book whole heartedly for its mixture of truth and surealism to portray hawaii the way I remember it.
He discribes the Hawaii's drug culture and tourism industry perfectly.
Definatly a must read if your a fan of Hunter Thompsons work.
The way to remember HST..........2006-11-06
In this finally reprinted book, HST travels to Hawaii to cover the Ironman Triathalon for Running magazine, and winds up deep in ancient Hawaiian religions and history, along with how Captain Cook first visited the Hawaiian islands. True gonzo adventure, and unavailable except in paperback for too long. If you have only read "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" by HST, this book will bring the reader closer to today's reality, or at least as HST sees it.
Good, clean fun.......2006-11-05
Well, not exactly "good, clean fun" but it is fun. I loved this book because it's not as acid-adled as a lot of HT's writing and it's funny as hell. Also, it's a primer on what is actually happening (around you) when you catch a trophy fish in Hawaii (which I did before this book came out). At the time, I was baffled by how fast my fish dissapeared and how I was being treated (like a cheap trick) but this made it all painfully clear (after the fact). Well worth the read.
Praise For Lono!.......2006-08-18
Once again HST delves deep into the dark side of the human mind. Whether it's fishing for drugs in an airplane toilet or running over stray dogs in a drunken stupor, Hunter takes his reader on a wild ride through mysterious Hawaii. If you want to take a trip without the airfare (or the acid) crack open this oversized volume and enjoy.

Book Description
Recorded history is a finely-woven magic fabric of intricate lies about events predating the sixteenth century. There is not a single piece of evidence that can be reliably and independently traced back earlier than the eleventh century. This book details events that are substantiated by hard facts and logic, and validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources.

Calculations are only as good as your numbers.......2007-08-03
Yes, we can all agree that mainstream history is nearly 100% BS due to politics, economics, ego, problems with dating techniques, and various conspiracies. Agreed. But, I've been researching the distinct possibility that human history (in terms of civilizations) are much more ancient than we've been told, so coming across this book was very interesting to me. I wondered how Fomenko could be wrong (if at all) because he is very persuasive in his presentations. Then it dawned on me. If at previous times in prehistory, due to the various catastrophies that are well documented (comets, asteroids, planetary disruptions, plasma discharge, pole reversals, etc) the Earth was in a different position in relation to the sun, different tilt on its axis, different orbit, different rotation (in terms of velocity and DIRECTION), and the continents were in different positions, then would this not cause the ancients to see the sky (constellations) differently? In other words, is Fomenko making erronious assumptions about the physics of the Earth in pre-history, which then corrupt his data with regards to dating the relevant astrology? The last event to seriously disrupt our planet occured roughly 3500 years ago, according to other good researchers, so is it possible Fomenko has been confused by this? The vastly different physics of our planet in the not so distant past may explain this confusion, which is not to say the "mainstream" version of history is correct; on the contrary. I am not an expert in these fields, but wanted to see if this idea could spark discussion.
Pants on fire?.......2007-07-19
Will people ever read before spamming? Yes, Jesuits could not rewrite world history alone, they had help. Anyway, Dr Prof Acad A.Fomenko does not point to jesuits as the driving force of world wide history manipulation in published volumes 1,2,3;, actually he barely mentions the poor devils. Check it with 'Search inside' feature, please. China is rarely mentioned either, in fact, Dr Fomenko is completely eurocentric. Right, his theory contradicts all mainstream schools of history, because in their actual state they are all built on blatantly erroneus chronology. You don't need a mysterious cabal (conspiracy) to falsify history, the falsification is its modus operandi. It is inherent to history(ians) to falsify (distort) events, as it is inherent to humans to boast as it is inherent to power (authority) to legimize itself by referrring to glorious past made to its own order. Dr Prof Fomenko and team have identified scores of instances of such manipulation in Russian, European, etc.. history, and delivered valid statistical proof thereof. His own 'reconstruction' is completely another story. Forget c14 as a valid method of dating. W.Libby has initially discovered a brilliant method of INDEPENDENT dating. Too bad, c14 method has become a joke after a forced marrige with dendrochronology with consensual chronological scale inbuilt. Radiocarbon method can't stand blind tests, but is so very productive as a rubberstamp.
Accepted History & Chronology Must Be Changed. .......2007-04-09
There is no doubt that history as most know it is a sham, & institution's version of History both University & Church is fradulent & inaccurate. Everything was established with an agenda, The real "Dark Ages" are now when we have access to incredible amounts of information past authorities & more important 'common folk' didn't have but our institutions & educators are slow to evolve because of what has ignorantly & arrogantly been taught for too long. This is on many subjects not just Chronology.
For anyone to question "Why would a Mathematician have anything credible to say of History?" The answer is from Dr. Fomenko's preface in the book: "It would be worthwhile to remind the reader that in the XVI-XVII century Chronology was considered to be a subdivision of Mathematics." These volumes could possibly be some of the most important works to date & should be read by everyone with an interest in History, especially professors & educators who have a duty to the public. I have read both books & must say that 'Chronology 1' has some very eye opening & revolutionary information. Even if these volumes are part true the implications are profound & opens the doors to further investigations & questions which must be done. I speak several different lanquages & must say the logic Dr. Fomenko uses with "inflection" of words & words being read from left to right in one region & right to left in another then written backwards, the removal of vowels & get down to basics of words, or different cities & locations having the same name etc. is correct. Vowel usage has always been optional & varied, actually complicating linquistics & study. The first thing one has to understand is that words never had a fixed spelling in history like we do now, the spelling of words was mutable & regional, as well as names & titles of people were vast, varied & changed, NOTHING WAS FIXED or understood linear. Matters of Life & Death as well as financial profiteering yesterday & today were & are made with ignorant, illogical & conspiratorial views of history & reality, it's time people get closer to the Truth & society collectively grow up.
Very Interesting.......2007-03-07
It is a good proposal and I believe it will mature into something even better in the future. I think it deserves to be read.
History as Science Fiction.......2007-01-10
Anatoly Fomenko has written a very intriguing book, full of pictures, charts, and computer 'proof' of his thesis: backwards of AD900 we don't really know what happened or when. Between AD900 and AD1600 there is more certainty, but there is still a lot of fuzzy ground, and things don't get reliable until we get past the 1600's where the printing press made it very difficult for the perpetrators of this timeline manipulation to change anything that had been committed to print. The Dark Ages did not happen. Books were burned for a reason. One organization has doubled the actual length of its existence by expanding the real chronology. Read why.
I had always wondered why Christ died about AD33 and yet men waited until the 11th century to form the Knights Templar, the Cathars, etc and go after the Holy Land by force. Why the 1000 year gap? Turns out there wasn't more than a 10-12 year gap and he proves it using astronomy. This also implies that the planet is not as old as we have been told, and current Christian and other creationist scientists are already championing that idea without being aware of Fomenko's book. The two groups, creationist scientists and the Russian mathematical analysts corroborate each other. Fascinating.
Of course, all this flies in the face of what we have been told traditionally is the 'proper' chronology of western civilization, and most readers will experience 'cognitive dissonance' in reading this book. It means that our history going backwards from AD1600 becomes progressively more incorrect and unreliable until it cannot be trusted at all... in the space of 700-800 years.
Naturally, the curious, open-minded reader will want to know WHO did this, WHY, and did any of the events we think of as really ancient ever happen?
Dr. Fomenko is a respected scientist/mathematician at Moscow State University who has already answered these questions to the satisfaction of his initially skeptical colleagues. Most of them are now believers, a few still refuse to believe (the usual diehards), and of course the western press has ignored Fomenko's work -- for obvious reasons when you read the book. The ones who perpetrated this chronology ruse have a lot to answer for. They are still with us. That's why this book is a well-kept secret.
I gave the book a 4-star rating because I was unable to check out some of his claims; those I checked were as he said. But if even 1/3 of his claims are true, this punches a big hole in what we think is our history, the meaning of western civilization, our educational process (for repeating the ruse as gospel), and the trustworthiness of the organization that perpetrated this ruse, well-intentioned or not.
This book relates to current research into a Young Earth paradigm, to John Keel's discoveries about our planet, and Fr Malachi Martin's insights (in his now out-of-print books). We are indeed sheep who are manipulated and kept ignorant -- for a reason. While knowing what these men have to say may be the "booby prize" (as in: 'what can you do with this knowledge?'), it will provide interesting reading. Didn't someone say: "...and the Truth will set you free."?? For you to judge if this book contains the truth.

Math Curse Review.......2007-09-24

I teach math and I read this book to my class. It is one of my favorite books.
Math Curse.......2007-05-23
Have you ever had the math curse? Well, in the book Math Curse, a young boy gets put under the math curse. It all started when his teacher said, "You know, you can think of almost everything as a math problem." That got his mind turning. After that, EVERYTHING was a math problem to him. This little boy had a creative mind. 24 cupcakes, 25 students, 365 days, 52 weeks, 12 months hmm... Will this curse ever leave him alone?
This story is realistic fiction. The author, Jon Scieszka, does a wonderful job explaining every thing. It is easy to understand and to follow. I think that anyone who knows how to read would enjoy this book. Never before have I read a book quite like this one. It is almost like a Roald Dahl book, where your mind will be wondering what will happen untill the very end. Personally, I loved this book, and I am sure that you will too.
Math Curse.......2007-05-23
Have you ever gone through a day with a song stuck in your head? The same thing happened to a young boy, except he couldn't stop seeing math problems!
In this interactive children's book, a boy is told that life can be looked at as a math problem. After that, everything he sees or does is a math problem! He has to break the curse and go back to his normal life.
Math Curse is a well written children's book. It has maturity mixed with adolescence, and helps children develop skills for life. It's humorous and parents will enjoy reading it, too. To Jon Scieska and Lane Smith-well done!
Great bok!.......2006-11-18
I bought the "Math Curse" for my 6 year old and he absolutely LOVED IT!!! There is no going wrong with this book, your kids are guaranteed to be excited about math in the end of the story!

A Must Read!.......2007-08-06
This was the first Christine Feehan book I read and one of my favorites. I highly recommend it to anyone who might be interested in a Gothic historical. It is full of mystery, love, passion, action, unforgettable characters, and even some magic.
And after you finish, read Feehan's other books! She is an extremely talented author, so make room on your bookshelf of favorites.
The Scarletti Curse.......2007-08-01
This is another of Christine Feehan brilliant books. She can make you part of that, that is written. You start reading and you can't put it down, I know I couldn't. If you enjoy books of physical,telpathic and romance you will love this. Every time I read one of her books they just get better.
Beautiful & Touching.......2007-05-24
I really love The Scarletti Curse, having reread it for more than 5 times I believe.
The pacing is good, with enough action, excitement and unconditional love (a necessity to destroy the evil curse at work).
The book starts with village girl Nicoletta being summoned to accompany the village "healer" Maria Pia, who raised Nicoletta since her mother's death, to the Scarletti Palazzo. They keep this charade to prevent the people at the palazzo knowing about Nicoletta's extraordinary healing powers (this heritage is explained in the Carpathian book "Dark Symphony, in which the lifemate is a descendant of the main characters/couple). As Maria Pia is a midwife herself this causes no problem.
At the palazzo the patients turned out to be Don Giovanni Scarletti and his niece Sofia, suffering from food poisoning. While both "healer" and assistant do their work, Don Scarletti keeps observing Nicoletta, asking her questions when Maria Pia fell asleep and after many dissatisfying non-answers says "I am not so blind as you and the healer seem to think"!
A few days later the "healer" and assistant were summoned to the palazzo again, but this time Nicoletta knows that no one is ill. Maria Pia therefore went back to the Palazzo with another assistant, but this assistant is old and when asked about Nicoletta kept telling the Don how wonderful and extraordinary she really is. This gives Don Giovanni a reason to choose a bride at The Bridal Convent. His choice is Nicoletta, who gets escorted (begging and struggling) back to the palazzo by the Don.
In the following days up to and after the wedding arguments heat up, a few murders commited, the staff gossip, while Nicoletta grows into the role of the Lady of the Palazzo.
Excellent Gothic romance.......2007-02-20
What an excellent book. Great use of characters and character growth. The chracters are revealed slowly in layers. Multidimensional supporting characters. There are a pair of young girls that are so well created you can hear the russle of their gowns and the patter of their feet running down the palazzo's corridors. A mystery that grows slowly throughout the book. Wonderful sense of the time and place. I have cried 3 times while reading this book.The level of mystery and intrigue reminds me of her Ghostwalker series which has the same depth of conspiracy interwoven into the romance.
This is certainly one of Christine Feehan's defining works.
again having a hard time getting into this one........2007-01-03
I have read about 1/2 of this.... it goes somewhat w/ the Dark series but I haven't gotten far enough to recognize any names yet.

10 Curses that Block the Blessings.......2007-09-16
This book is extremely thought provoking. Whether you agree with everything the author says or not, it really makes you think about your own views on blessings, curses, and the power of prayer. I appreciate the way the author gives you very specific things to pray about and prayers to say for each of the "10 Curses" (things such as gossip, negativity, racism, unforgiveness, etc.) Several of the women at my church enjoyed this book so much, we decided to use it as curriculum for our Sunday School Class.
Wow! We can tie the hands of an omnipotent god!.......2007-08-30
I used to attend pastor huchsters church in Portland before it bacame the top of the line marketplace with all the bells and whistles. I rember the huchster telling me that god looks down on us and says "wow, i'd sure like to bless this person but you know, there's nothing i can do until they take that leap of faith and give their paycheck to the church" and then when he'd say I can have a new corvette and a cadillac to go with my mansion if i only gave until it hurt. Because that's what we all desire more than anything right? Worldy posessions, you bet. I'll have to write some missionaries to be sure they tell the persecuted Chinese Christians that they're doing it all wrong, they can all have lavish, decadent lifestyles if they only had more faith. The bible says we deserve eternal death but huchster says children of god should live like kings and queens. And then he told me that god has no power over certain aspects of my life because i have these "family curses" that put up a force field around me that god can't penetrate to free me of. He said many wonderous things over the years, i remember once he said that i still carry a heavy yoke around my neck even after i ask for forgiveness and repent. Oh, and i mustn't forget the presumptuous (false) prophecies. The list goes on and on. Good times. And folks rarely accused the huchster of sermonizing. Nooo he wouldn't want to scare away a visitor living a sinful, worldly life, after all it's not about Christian fellowship and edification, it's about entertainment and not offending the unsaved with one of those fire and brimstone sermons because who'd want a god who punishes and corrects? Not the huchster. Christians are suppose to be 'cool' in the worlds eyes. Call me crazy, but i think that God can do whatever He wants. Family curses and unbelief never stopped the God of the bible. And the God of the bible has much to say about the fate of those who deceive his elect. Don't be fooled bretheren. I have experienced this author and his teachings. Don't take my word for it, take God's. You could take the huchsters word for it, but it'll cost you.
Very Needed for Every Christian Today.......2007-05-07
I have ordered many copies of this book to give to people I know that are born-again, but have things that they are still struggling with. It is a relief to know that many of the things that we struggle with, could possibly have been handed down from generation to generation. We need to be aware that even though we are saved. We are always a work in progress. We will not be totally like Christ until we see Him face to face. I have just read this book with an open heart and have prayed sincerely to God. I have seen the Holy Spirit move in might and power in my own life. I pray that God's people would now have a desire to get rid of the spots and wrinkles, as the Holy Spirit directs them through tis book.
Very well written-very informative!.......2007-03-30
In my life and ministry hearing about curses that block our blessings is not something new; however it is always a joy to read a book with another's perspective on the subject. Mr. Huch's work is packed full of Spiritual insight on the many causes that are hindering our full blessings from the Lord. His writing is clear, simple and easy to understand; showing you what some of the major blocks may be and how to rid yourself of them in your life.He backs his work with Scripture and also shares his own struggles to be free and blessed. You will be amazed at how even your words are causing you and others pain and suffering. A revelation I have known for a long time, but certainly was glad to have a reminder. I truly believe this work will help all Christians in their walk with the Lord and will also be of interest to others. Very good book and much needed in the Body of Christ.

10 Curses That Block The Blessings .......2007-03-30
Found the book very informative. We are doing a small group study. It is another tool in the tool box for those in the healing ministry.
Book Description
Life's trials and triumphs can seem accidental. One person may feel that life is a constant struggle in which pitfalls abound and someone seems out to get him. Another may feel that every day is a gift from God with special blessings just for her. That's because forces are at work in our lives: the blessings of a loving God or the curses of our spiritual adversary. This hugely popular classic work of Derek Prince helps readers recognize if there are curses at work in their lives and shows them how to get out from under those curses to live under God's blessings.

Consistently Excellent.......2007-08-23
Derek Prince again doesn't disappoint those of us who have come to expect from him solid theology and understandable exposition of Scriptural principles.
Again, in this vitally important volume, Mr. Prince continues his divine assignment to bring each and every faithful Christian the opportunity to live in the freedom that Jesus Christ intended for them and for which He gave His life.
Another Great Book by Derik Prince.......2007-08-05
Derik Prince is becoming one of my favorite authors. What a privilege to have this great Man of God teaching us the things he learned over a lifetime of serving the Lord. This is a great book. It reminded me once again who my real enemy is. I have greatly benefited from reading Blessing or Curse.
Blessing or Curse,: You Can Choose.......2007-07-28
A definite must for those seeking answers to "dead end" prayers. Prince, presents a sound and Biblical
truth of: cause and effect regarding one's spiritual past, present and future. Not for the faint hearted or those seeking a quick fix; a serious answer for serious seekers.
Watching My Tongue.......2007-03-03
Excellent Book. I learned so much about the power of the tongue and how our words can curse others or even ourself.

You Cannot Get any better than this!!!.......2007-01-16
This book was purchased for myself. I love the music of this movie and really love the challenging timing of each song. This is a must have for any library.
Lots of fun pieces to play!.......2006-10-29
The pieces in this book are very fun to play. They are written very well and it sounds very similar to what you hear on the soundtrack. I would reccommend this book for intermediate pianists, not beginners!
Great sheet music!.......2004-06-21
A great book of sheet music, and very promptly delivered; it only took around 1 week to arrive!
The music has just the right blend of simplicity/complexity to make it easy enough to play while still being challenging for my teenage daughter, and yet sounding GREAT and very satisfying to belt out.
We are very pleased, and would recommend this to anyone who likes the Pirates music.
liked this book.......2004-05-21
Klaus Badelt is one of my favorite composers. While this is not my favorite among his work (I was looking for sheet music for The Time Machine) This book is very good. It contains one lone grand staff for piano playing. The songs range in difficulty. The book is very well made and lies flat with ease and without breaking. The songs contained in this book are "The Medallion Calls" "The Black Pearl" "Blood Ritual/Moonlight Serenade" "Underwater March" "To the Pirates' Cave!" and "He's a Pirate".
Welcome to the Caribbean, love!.......2004-04-08
Never before have I been so pleased with a movie soundtrack music book before. This is really great. The pieces are probably a little advanced for most people, but if you know the music, it's not hard to figure out. It has every theme you'd want to play. Very, very, good!
