The War of the Worlds
from Public Domain Books.
War of the Worlds is an absolute classic of science fiction, a masterpiece of the art form. This book is powerful, gripping, and an absolute page turner. It spawned countless sci-fi imitators, but Wells' finest work still stands up amazingly well in the face of contemporary versions - which is very...
Last Dragon Standing
from Zebra.
I, too, was looking forward to this book. I was hoping for some redemption of Keita the Viper, and to some extent she was salvaged (spoiler) by being a "spy for her kingdom", but the whole book missed the mark. NOT STAND ALONE book. There are so many fleeting references to family it would be...
The G-Free Diet: A Gluten-Free Survival Guide
from Center Street.
THE G FREE DIET (A Gluten-Free Survival Guide)is an excellent road map for navigating the in's and out's of eating gluten-free. Whether you have Celiac Disease, are gluten sensitive or just want to lose weight, Elizabeth Hasselbeck makes the daunting task of tackling a gluten-free diet highly...
The Time Machine
from Public Domain Books.
it is very unscientific which i do not like. thenn again i am a science freak so you might as well read it.
Vocabulary Workshop: Level G
from William H Sadlier.
This was in really good condition with some of the answers written in already (yay not having to work as hard).
It shipped extremely quickly, which is perfect because I have weekly vocab assignments in my class and managed to lose my book.
The Invisible Man. A Grotesque Romance.
from The British Library.
In the beginning of The Invisible Man, by H. G. Wells, attention is brought to a scientist named Griffin who has discovered the means of invisibility with an invisibility serum. Griffin has apparently gone insane in the process. The book is very descriptive and with so much of a scientific...
Orthodoxy: Centennial Edition
from CreateSpace.
Chesterton's slant on an idea is interesting since he said in his time people were not believing in sin so let's call it something else and look at it from that angle. I'm enchanted with his look at the history of the time even through it was very much written for the time and place, for instance it...
In the Days of the Comet
from FQ Books.
An extremely verbose book on the social and political issues between the Boer War and World War I in England with a solution to the world's problem via the green mist left by Earth passing through a comet's tail. I truly enjoyed the movie renderings of "The War of the Worlds" (the first version with...
My Man Jeeves
from IndoEuropeanPublishing.com.
This DVD contains three Jeeves stories, wonderfully interpreted by the talented Martin Jarvis. The reading of the stories is so good that you can easily envision the hilarious antics of the ever-bumbling Bertie and his "gentleman's gentleman" Jeeves. The first story is the best because it is...
The Food of the Gods and How It Came to Earth
from General Books LLC.
H.G. Wells wrote it, and that doesn't make it good.
The Food of the Gods deals with giant humans created by a primitive idea of what an advanced 'science' growth potion might do. The giant (human) beings described in the novel would collapse under their own weight, given the limitations of...
What a Dragon Should Know (Dragon Kin, Book 3)
from Zebra.
I really enjoyed this book. I did not want to put it down until I finished reading it. There are not a lot of books that I enjoy reading that much that I do not want to stop except the Twilight Saga books and J.R. Ward's books. I found this book really interesting and fun to read. I had to buy more...
The War in the Air
from FQ Books.
Easily the best book I have read in several years. It has a very compelling storyline, with as much action as any teenage boy could hope for. It also presents arguments about society, progress, morals, and government that are incredibly edifying and persuasive.
The History of Mr. Polly (Classic Reprint)
from Forgotten Books.
I've never liked Wells. This is the first of his books I've been able to force myself to finish. I didn't love it but it was FUNNY! My friends, no doubt smarter and more learned than me, told me the book contained social commentary, that Wells was a socialist with an agenda of showing the...
Canon PowerShot G10 / G11: From Snapshots to Great Shots
from Peachpit Press.
I'm only reviewing the Kindle version here, as downloaded to my 24-inch iMac and iPod Touch. First off, it was a treat to see the photos rendered in color. What wasn't a treat was the quality at which they were rendered. They were pretty much lifeless, and the resolution was way too low. Each...
Psychology
from Worth Publishers.
The book is fine- I had to get it as a required text for an online course. I was really happy to be able to find it used (in perfect condition) for about $8 when the school was trying to sell it to me for over $100.
Twelve Stories and a Dream
from General Books LLC.
A collection that has quite a bit of fantasy contained therein, but which again tails off in the latter part as far as interest goes.
Twelve Stories and A Dream : Filmer - H. G. Wells
Twelve Stories and A Dream : The Magic Shop - H. G. Wells
Twelve Stories and A Dream : The...
Right Ho, Jeeves
from FQ Books.
What a word-smith! It was my pleasure to discover this humorous journey. I encourage you to take the trip soon.
Uneasy Money
from General Books LLC.
Wodehouse writes with a "tongue in cheek" style of humor that is characteristic of him and his time. If you expect Dave Barry, you will be disappointed, but if you have not read any of his works you will find an author with an intelligent wit. It is a free download. I recommend giving it a try.
Certain Personal Matters: A Collection of Material, Mainly Autobiographical [ 1898 ]
from Cornell University Library.
Conceptual Physics (11th Edition)
from Addison Wesley.
This book was in great condition and the price was unbeatable! Shipping was very fast, too. I would recommend this seller for used textbooks.
