Review:You know, "classics" often are . . . well . . . boring. It must be admitted. But the Three Musketeers is actually quite good.. I was surprised. When I was done I was sorry it was over. I will very likely - gasp - read it again someday, and undoubtedly will buy the mobi collection of Dumas' works for my Kindle Read more
Review:Big surprise was revealed way too early and the rest of the novel contained the "fallout." Dumas tied up almost all of the loose ends so it ended well...I guess I was expecting it to build a bit more with the big "reveal" at the end.
Oxford World's Classics are the way to go with this series.
Still a good book and I recommend that you read it; especially if you've read all of the other previous books in this massive saga as I did :). Read more
Review:This is unabridged which I appreciate and didn't see noted before I purchased it. Whether you like classics or not, this a great tale of intrigue and adventure. I have laughed out loud a few times. A good laugh is always good for the soul. Read more
Review:An imaginative concept carried out with beautiful writing. Taking the story of "The Stranger" by Camus told from the point of view of the unnamed arab boy who was murdered by the protagonist in the original story, filling him out with a history and coloring in the background that was omitted. The story told from the other side. Brief, compelling and angry. Read more
Review:Although the Plague is not my favorite Camus, that honor belongs to The Stranger and The Rebel, it is nonetheless a great allegory for the grinding nature of life under occupation by a foreign dictatorial regime.
Just as Camus experienced first hand the way in which the Nazi occupation of France beat down the spirit of the French people, in The Plague he parallels that with the way in which an isidious disease can beat down the will of a city's people to live life.
Perhaps, the way in whic... Read more
Review:I received an ARC copy in exchange for an honest review.
Twin siblings Shaun and Sarah are demon trackers, throughout the entire book they are tracking down demons, vampires and witches. I really enjoyed the storyline but due to the length of the book it took awhile to read it. Read more
Review:I really liked this story a lot. It's not another Wildcard which is what I think all of LL's fans keep hoping for (myself included). Maybe I wasn't paying careful enough attention, but I read the dates in this book to be as follows: They met 8 years before when she was 22, she started working with the Ops 2 years later at 24 and is now 30. I do wish Jordan had been in his early 40s. This would have been more consistent with his character in most of the rest of the series (his 1st appearance... Read more
Review:To create fascinating conflict on many levels, maintain a future interest in the series as well as tell a darn outstanding story is a remarkable accomplishment. This author is superior in plotting, character, setting and--holy cow!!!--terrific sensuality. This book pulls you in and just when you think it's another typical paranormal--whammy!--a great plot twist or character spin. My only caution is it's not really a stand alone book in the series because there is a lot of world building and r... Read more

Nathan is fine with never seeing his wife again but when he learns that Sabella is in trouble with the Black Collar Militia, he can not just stand by and do nothing. Only how long with Na...

Review:I am a big Lora Leigh fan, with the exception of "The Breeds" series I have purchased her books without even knowing the subject matter. That is how good her past books have been. I couldn't wait for this book to be published and purchased it at the first opportunity. This book could have been a great book comparable to "Wild Card", however it read as if it was hastily thrown together with little thought given to plot or character development. There were typos, incorrect grammar, thoughts that ... Read more
