Review:This "graphic novel" sucks big time. The illustrations are amateurish and the story line is very weak and totally disappointing as it rehashes for the most part old information about Odd before his girlfriend's death. I definitely do not recommend this trash, especially at the price of $10+. Read more
Review:The Bern Saga became an addiction for me right from the first chapter of the Parsona Rescue. I couldn't read them fast enough and at the same time I wanted to read slower so I could savor them. It was hours of joy, torture, nail biting, and long nights when I should have been sleeping promising myself "just one more chapter".
So when I started reading the Fight for Peace it seemed bittersweet. The final installment in the Bern Saga, I couldn't wait to find out how it ended, I never wanted... Read more
Review:Hugh Howey always fulfills my desire to be entertained with a good story. This time he focuses on a future in which man has depleted the world of much of our ocean life. And it is a story of redemption. Hugh is a good storyteller. Read more
Review:Rather disappointing. Too much of the same kind of thing: paranormal, horror, thriller. Too many authors trying to surprise readers with a (sometimes predicable) twist ending. It's the kind of stuff we wrote in creative writing class. Maybe it's the short length that makes the stories so hollow and unrewarding? Sorry, but I'm glad I didn't pay for this one. Read more
Review:I recently read the Wool Omnibus which was so good it just blew me away. So I immediately headed back out to purchase the sixth volume in the story. Mr. Howey is very talented and overall I enjoyed the story; however, it wasn't as gripping as the ones before and some of the plot seemed a little off or perhaps unlikely so I wasn't drawn into the story as completely as with the previous volumes in the story. I'm not at all saying I didn't enjoy the read. It was interesting and I very much enjoyed ... Read more
Review:The Bern Saga was the first series published by Hugh Howey. His writing just continues to grow as his publications continue to grow in number. The Bern Saga has great characters from various alien places.... A great author not to be missed. His new Wool series is one that I just couldn't put down. I can't wait for him to start another world for me to enter... Read more
Review:So i feel I can no longer objectively review Hugh Howey's books. I have in the last week read the entire Wool series to date and the first two Molly Fyde books. I think I have now wandered into fanboy territory. I still say you should buy this book. If you don't like it I owe you a Coke. Read more
Review:This is not your normal book. Told from the perspective of a number of different people (zombies), it feels random. With all the other zombie books, and TV shows, and movies, it is nice to have something from a mostly different angle.
The author warned that the book might be too much for some people. I didn't have any trouble with it. The Walking Dead TV show has bothered me much more. In any case, not a book I would recommend for children. Read more
Review:Others who read this book should know that even though it is translated to english, it is still difficult to read at times. The translator left in Irish idioms and words that do not translate directly into American version of english. Read more
Review:Very enjoyable read! For a long while, I'd wanted to read the complete and unabridged version, so my parents picked up this one for me. There was a lot of fish classification, but that made it a little like traveling under the sea with a scientist as a tour guide. Neat stuff.
If your looking for something action-packed, this might not be your read, due to the long distance between exciting scenes. Read more
