No matter how Declan Idrys looks at his situation, he comes to the same conclusion every time: He is about to die at the hands of the first dark elf seen in 700 years. Fate, fortunately, is not so cruel, though, and after barely surviving this initial encounter with the er’endehn of Eserysh, Declan and his friends find themselves in a tentative truce with the war-loving elves. They share a common enemy, after all, and their mutual hate for the Endless Queen and her growing legions is enough for the two groups to set aside their mistrust for one another, if only for now.

Great continuation of an amazing story!

Bryce O'Connor and Luke Chmilenko continue to deliver exciting fantasy with characters I enjoy. I (nearly) always love the first book in any fantasy or sci-fi series more than the rest because discovering a new world is fascinating to me, but in A Blood of Kings O'Connor and Chmilenko have expanded their world, deepened the various relationships between many of the characters, and introduced new elements that combined to form a sequel that I enjoyed ALMOST as much as the first.

In his first-ever Doctor Who novel, Tom Baker’s incredible imagination is given free rein. A story so epic it was originally intended for the big screen, Scratchman is a gripping, white-knuckle thriller almost 40 years in the making. The Doctor, Harry and Sarah Jane Smith arrive at a remote Scottish island when their holiday is cut short by the appearance of strange creatures - hideous scarecrows who are preying on the local population. The islanders are living in fear, and the Doctor vows to save them all.

The Doctor writing and performing a Doctor Who story?? Yes please!! Tom Baker is just as much the Doctor today as he was back in the 70s, yet this new adventure has all the excitement and pizzazz of the modern series. Highly recommended to any Whovian!

Best-selling author Laurie Halse Anderson is known for the unflinching way she writes about and advocates for survivors of sexual assault. Now, inspired by her fans and enraged by how little in our culture has changed since her groundbreaking novel Speak was first published 20 years ago, she has written a poetry memoir that is as vulnerable as it is rallying, as timely as it is timeless.

Vulnerability and power are synonyms
Revisado: 03-17-19
Speak was put into my hands by a collage professor 17 years ago. It led me first to pick up a pen, then to begin to feel, then to slowly start speaking all that was within me to say. Today, I can laugh and sing with a joy and freedom I'd never known before! When I heard that the author was publishing a memoir I immediately preordered the audible edition, narrated by Laurie herself. I was so gripped that I stayed up far too late, unwilling to silence her even for a few hours. And of course, the next thing I did was pick up my pen again. Inspiring, visceral, eloquent, vulnerable, and above all, powerful.

He has no idea where his journey will lead, or that the grandmother he’s been told is dead is desperately searching for him. Alone with no home of his own, Logan looks for a safe place to hide.

Nearly everyone swears - whether it's over a few too many drinks, in reaction to a stubbed toe, or in flagrante delicto. And yet we sit idly by as words are banned from television and censored in books. We insist that people excise profanity from their vocabularies, and we punish children for yelling the very same dirty words that we'll mutter in relief seconds after they fall asleep. Swearing, it seems, is an intimate part of us that we have decided to selectively deny.

Fan-f***ing-tastic!
Revisado: 03-09-18
As a linguist by trade and a closet cusser, this book was fascinating to me. Bergen relays the history, grammar, stigmas, physiology, and varieties of profanity across the world. It is accessible and entertaining enough for the less scientific and still portrays enough facts and data for those with a scientific bent. He is professional and straightforward, but allows for the occasional tongue in cheek joke to entertain the reader as well. I learned so much and can't stop talking about it!!

A leading dog-blogger offers a tour of military working dogs' extraordinary training, heroic accomplishments, and the lasting impacts they have on those who work with them. Maria Goodavage here tells heartwarming stories of modern soldier dogs and the amazing bonds that develop between them and their handlers. Beyond tales of training, operations, retirement, and adoption into the families of fallen soldiers, Goodavage talks to leading dog-cognition experts about why dogs like nothing more than to be on a mission with a handler they trust.

I learned so much AND was enthralled!
Revisado: 09-17-17
The author does a wonderful job of offering factual information in the context of stories. You don't just learn about how military dogs came to be; you get to know the earliest soldier dogs. Same for the current training methods and qualifications. You meet real dogs and their handlers. The author also compares her dopey lab to the working dogs, as of course I was doing with my little choodle!

I listened to this while doing menial tasks at work and it kept me from being bored out of my mind, which was all I needed it to do. there are several "laugh out loud" bits, but I wouldn't rush out to buy another Tom Stranger book. I got it for free, and I got what I paid for.

One of these days she’s going to take in the wrong stray dog, and it’s not going to end well.BronteMy brother has no right to talk about Brewster that way — no right to threaten him.

Great story! I finished it in one sitting as I was so compelled and drawn in. Having multiple narrators was absolutely key in effectively relating this tale. I wasn't especially thrilled with the voice of the younger brother, Cody, but it wasn't distracting from the overall experience.
