Having read several books on Buffett and having done some research of my own, I sometimes wonder whether there is still more to learn about Buffett's investment strategies. Thankfully, this book is very insightful and while the points are not all new, the material is presented in thoughtful and interesting ways. Points such as the importance of superior management, low leverage financing for investors and firms, avoiding listening to most
talking heads, meaning of adequate diversification, emphasis on downside risk while looking for growth prospects, doing a lot of research before buying stocks gives you the conviction to have staying power and patience and will lower the chance you will panic when there is volatility in the stock price, are worth repeating.

I have particularly liked reading a book by an academic since the arguments/points are made in a logical manner consistent with general finance theory. Sometimes when you read stuff written by practitioners, the
reasoning is not entirely logical and sometimes inconsistent with general finance theory.

Prem is a well respected Accounting/Finance Professor and has taught at some of the best schools. Fortunately, he has avoided the dogmatic/ideological positions taken by many academics on the efficiency of markets and he allows for the possibility of above average returns for skilled investors. His personal investing experience may have influenced his opinion on these issues.

Finally, some of the valuation examples appear a bit too approximate. Prem's background in accounting and personal investing experience could be a potent combination that provides rich insight into various valuation aspects and deliver high dividends to his readers.

Ben Mezrich’s Accidental Billionaires, the basis for the film, The Social Network, tells the story of the creation of Facebook, the characters involved, their motives and actions and the outcomes. The book takes us from Harvard and the creation of Facebook as a student project, to Silicon Valley and the multi-billion dollar company that Facebook is today. Accidental Billionaires is in large part a record of personalities and their interaction: Mark Zuckerberg, founder, primary owner and CEO of Facebook, who remains something of a mystery; Eduardo Saverin, his initial partner and co-founder, who takes legal action against Zuckerberg for later exclusion from the company; the Winklevoss twins, who sue Zuckerberg for alleged theft of their idea; and Sean Parker, Silicon Valley celebrity who connects Zuckerberg with venture capital and is himself later excluded from involvement with Facebook. The cast is virtually all male, with women present on the margins merely as sex objects.

In its narrative technique, Accidental Billionaires constantly switches viewpoint from one character to another, so that no one has the whole picture, the perfect, all-knowing overview. There is no omniscient narrator who decides among the competing viewpoints, an omission that allows the author to attribute criticism or condemnation of others to characters within the drama, but makes it difficult for the reader to reach a definitive conclusion about the events. Did Mark Zuckerberg steal someone else’s idea and get mega-rich on it, or was he a computer genius who developed an idea way beyond its origin and made that idea his own? The issue remains undecideable.

One aspect of the book’s appeal is that it gives the reader vicarious entry into a world of privilege, a series of exclusive subcultures: Harvard and its elite societies, the influential billionaires of Silicon Valley and the insiders to Facebook itself. Accidental Billionaires is partly a story of “lifestyles of the rich and famous” at a barely post-adolescent stage of their careers. This aspect, the exclusivity, is in tension with the “here comes everybody” ethos of the internet. Ostensibly, Facebook was always going to oppose and exceed that exclusivity, either sexually, where geeks could hope to hook up with hot girls, or on a much wider scale, where anyone with access to the internet could connect with and “friend” anyone else. Of course, Facebook has produced its own hierarchy and elite, where a few people are plethorically wealthy and control huge amounts of information about the rest of us.

Generically, there are large issues involved in Facebook and the internet as a whole: the relationship of private to public, individuals to institutions, elites to masses, security to risk, order to disorder, information and its ownership and so on. This is why reading about Facebook is interesting and useful, not so much for the details of its creation, or who stole what from whom or didn’t, but as a prompt to consideration of major issues that affect all of us: our relation as individuals to society, government, politics and power, to freedoms and restrictions, issues that go way beyond Facebook. The thoughtful reader will look past Mezrich’s enjoyable account of Facebook’s creation to consider these wider questions.

This book is about the last Marian apparitions and the governance of the Roman Church.
The catholic clergy has never taken a clear stand as far as supernatural appearances by the Virgin Marye are concerned. This uncertainty gives room to create a marvellous novel based on some historical facts enriched with the creativity, precision and skilfulness of Steve Barry.

Barry is very good at creating a storyline in which the good ones (the German Pope, his Irish secretary and a African cardinal) want to help the Church restoring the truth and the bad ones (the secretary of state and other Italian cardinals) want to help the church restoring the original faith . In this struggle, knowing the secret behind Fatima is crucial and who will succeed will be in the position to forge the future of the Church.

What I did like the most in this book? First, I could not put it done. The book comprises of a series of events that are quite unpredictable. This author does not annoy the reader with lengthy and tedious descriptions of places and feelings: the focus is always on the unfolding of the events
Second, it was able to stimulate my interest in history and specifically in the history of Church.
Barry is a declared history-lover and and his passion is able to affect the reader.

The thrilling plot and the historical base are probably two features of all Barry’s books, but I regard this even better than the one I read before, “The Romanov Prophecy”, which was already 5 stars

At end of the book Berry states accurately which facts are historically true and which are his own creations. This is methodologically very correct and shows great respect towards the importance of History.

This book has a great concept, I just think it would've been better if:
1) So the author is British, and he focused on British interviewees (I'd say about 70% of them are British, most of them relatively unknown outside of the UK). I'm from the Dominican Republic, and I would definitely appreciate more if his interviews had a more international tone. For example: why put Andy Murray and not Roger Federer? Why Sandi Toksvig and not Oprah? Why James Rhodes and not Andrea Bocelli? Why Michael McIntyre and not Eddy Murphy?
2) It would've been better if he interviewed more business-oriented individuals, instead of so many artists, who give --in my opinion-- the book a tone too liberal for my taste.

My love of reading has led me on great adventures, to different lands, to the past and into the future. My interests are wide and varied when it comes to books; however, I have always been attracted to books of great quotations. I recently purchased this excellent Dover thrift edition of “Books and Reading: a book of quotations” edited by bill Bradfield and found it to be a fantastic read.

As we all know sometimes wonderful things come in small packages and this 65 page soft cover volume proves this point. The focus is on 450 quotations about reading and the writing of books. Some of the memorable quotes come from history’s best known writers such as Andrew Carnegie, Virginia Woolf, Mark Twain, Will Rogers, Henry Miller, Theodore Roosevelt and many others.
Here is just a very small sample of the quotes in this volume: “After three days without reading, talk becomes flavorless.” Chinese Proverb “Literature is the art of writing something that will be read twice” Cyril Connolly.” “The best of any book is that it excites the reader to self-activity.” Thomas Carlye “Show me the books he loves and I shall know the man far better than through mortal friends.” Silas Weir Mitchell.

Like most book lovers and writers I have a large collection of quote books and if you are of the same mind-set you may want to check out this small gem of a book.

Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Martial Art and Warrior Haiku and Senryu).

This book goes way beyond your typical railroad book. This is an outstanding corporate history that happens to be about a railroad that went through a succession of owners and finally gelled under the ownership and guidance of Henry Ford. It is filled with text, stories, maps and photos that demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of a railroad in America. Every business library and college archive should have a copy without exception. This book is a must have for every railroad buff. If you don't spend a penny for another book, buy this one!

With classics such La Vie en Rose, A Kiss To Build A Dream On and Hank Williams' Your Cheatin' Heart, Satchmo Serenades is the perfect place to enjoy the vocal charms of Louis Armstrong. Blessed or cursed with the most unique rasp and frog-like voice, Satch knew how to make the most of his vocal limitations. Like his trumpet playing his phrasing and rhythm are impecable. Then there's his skatting, check out It Takes Two To Tango or Someday, (You'll Be Sorry). It doesn't get any better than this.
Recorded between 1949 and 1953 Armstrong was no loner able to play the extended solos and hit the same high notes he had in his prime. To compensate he developed a vocal styling and let his magnificant personality shine through. Nowhere is this more appearant than on these delightful selections, eighteen in all. It's true Louis never hit a wrong note and he always knew precisely how to interpret a song.

評価[編集]
アームストロングは明朗な性格と高い音楽的技術をあわせ持つカリスマ的かつ独創的な演奏者であり、洗練されていない地方的なダンスミュージックをポピュラーな音楽形態であるジャズへ発展させた。トランペット奏者、歌手としても有名。ジャズ界でも稀であるほどの天才トランペット奏者と言われ、ウィントン・マルサリスは「色々なトランペット奏者の良い所を盗もうとしたけど、アームストロングだけは盗めなかった。とにかく凄すぎるからさ」と賞賛[9]。歌の方でもスキャットという手法を広めたことで知られ、「サンセット・カフェ」で出会ったキャブ・キャロウェイにスキャットを教えた。マイルス・デイヴィスは「アームストロングは喋りまでジャズになっている」と語っている[10]。
著書[編集]
アームストロングは優れた文筆家でもあった。
『Swing That Music』（1936年）：最初の自伝
『Satchmo - My Life in New Orleans』 (1954年）：二冊目の自伝
『In His Own Words』（1999年、オックスフォード大学プレス）：雑誌への寄稿文・妻への手紙・若者へのアドバイス記事などを編纂したもの
注釈[編集]
^ a b アームストロングは自分がいつ生まれたのか正確には知らないと言っていたが、7月4日の誕生日を祝っていた。彼は公に話すときは1900年生まれであると言っていた（とはいえ、社会保障や他の政府の書類には1901年を用いていた）。彼の祖母が彼に洗礼を受けさせたときのローマ・カトリック教会の文書を用いて、ニューオーリンズの音楽研究家タッド・ジョーンズ Tad Jones はアームストロングの誕生日が1901年8月4日であると立証した。他にもこれを立証する各種の証拠により、この日付はいまやアームストロングを研究する学者に受け入れられている。
^ 通説では、アームストロングが歌詞を忘れたためと言われているが、音楽評論家のマイケル・ブルックスは2002年の編集盤『ザ・ベスト・オブ・ホット5・アンド・ホット7・レコーディングス』のライナーノーツで、アームストロングがわざとスキャットで歌った可能性を指摘している

I remember the excitement when this was released -my relatives in USA phoned and said " we are sending you a Xmas present" .Thankfully this set arrived and has become a treasured possession. Later editions do not have the same physical appeal of this large box set-about the size of an LP.
Musical critics gave good reviews quoting from the booklet that came with the set as if it was their own description--"jangling buttons " etc.
Songs that became Dylan classics are on these discs-too many to list.
IMO, this is the best of the Bootleg Series and is the one I would grab if my house went on fire.
A great set for both Dylan diehards and those exploring " why is Dylan treated like a God?"

This album cuts right to the heart of the thorny question: "Can you be a true fan of an artist if you are primarily a fan of their greatest hits compilations?" Much as it hurts me to say this, my gut has always told me the answer is "no". Why does it hurt so much to arrive at this answer? First, I absolutely adore Creedence Clearwater Revival's Chronicle Volume I - it has to be one of my top 10 all-time favorite albums. But since I don't love any of CCR's "real" albums, I'm not a true fan of CCR according to my rigid standards for true fandom. It pisses me off to have to admit that. My second reason involves my girlfriend. She is hopelessly devoted to Bob Dylan's imported Best of 1 - I reckon it is her favorite album. And yet, she rarely listens to his other material. I mean, she has several of Dylan's albums, but it is Best of 1 that she returns to time and again. So, according to my standards, she's not a true Dylan fan. Don't get me wrong, she's more than just a casual fan. But a true fan? I fear not. In my opinion and (I suspect) those of several influences from my formative years (Chris S., David F., and Steve M.), a true fan appreciates most of, if not all of, an artist's works. So, I'll keep enjoying my Chronicle and N.G.A. will keep enjoying her Best of 1, but until we develop more complete appreciations of CCR and Dylan, respectively, we simply won't qualify as true fans.
What do I think of Best of 1? That's easy. There are a bunch of amazing songs here and it would be foolish to even consider giving this album less than 5 stars. There's not much I can say about the individual songs that hasn't already been said more eloquently by countless others over the past 30 years. On this one album, you will hear timeless folk music, classic rock, and the roots of "the (alt-country) movement". Heck, Dylan even had a punk attitude long before that genre was born. Simply put, if you don't have any of Dylan's other albums and have at least a passing interest in popular music, this album belongs in your collection.

From the harp point of view, this book is just a collection of honest transcriptions. If you want to play exactly like Bob Dylan, go ahead, buy this book.

But talking about the "harp styles", it seems that there is no style at all. It says nothing about how to use the harp support, or about any technique, embouchure, etc.

There is ONE single page talking about how Bob start playing rough and amateurish and, that after 5 months, he was a "competent" harp player (I don't agree). Then, the music sheets.

So, what are the "styles" the books claims to talk about? Almost no bends, lots of chords, lots of go-forth-and-back-notes. No harp teacher I know will teach his students to play like that. They will insist for months until their students learn to breathe and how to play single notes, with nice tone and vibrato.

This book may be nice for Dylan's fans, but certainly is not suitable for real harp players.

I had my doubts about this inverter, as it is a modified sine wave. However, it has been more than adequate for the job!! Make sure that you have plenty of battery, you going to need it to run the air conditioner during the summer. This 48 volt inverter is more than adequate to handle your air conditioner, your washing machine, your water pump, your microwave, your ice maker, and all the things you have in your RV. With a 10000 watt Spike protector, this thing will go for 20 seconds before shutting down, if you overload it.
Delivery was fast, installation was so simple! The three wire output gives you the full 5000 watts of continuous operation, well running just about everything you need on your RV.

Para tener un precio tan accesible son una relación excelente calidad-precio.

En mi casa uso unos audifonos krk 8400 y para el celular si quiero escuchar bien, usaba unos m6 pro de mee audio, que tienen una firma de sonido en V muy marcada, comento esto para que sepas mas o menos que referencia de sonido tengo si es que conoces estas marcas.

Los bajos son potentes, muy marcados sin embargo no le ganan al resto de frecuencias, eso si, los altos en estos audifonos no son lo mas fuerte del mundo de manera que la firma de sonido no es precisamente algo en lo que tengas las voces extremadamente presentes, sin embargo el sonido esta muy bien balanceado. Conforme los he seguido usando creo que cambia un poco el sonido y va mejorando.

Si te gusta escuchar mucho metal, jazz o cosas en las que los tonos altos son importantes, creo que no son para ti estos audifonos, sin embargo se defienden muy bien en estos generos.

Todo lo demas como electrónico, rap etc, la verdad es que suena muy bien y cada ves me enamoro mas de estos audífonos en especial por el precio. Estos son mis audifonos de uso rudo que no me importa si en una de esas los pierdo o algo asi, si quiero un sonido mas nítido pues me salto a los m6 pro pero para el uso diario, en el gym, llevarmelos al trabajo, estan EXCELENTES.

Si tengo algún problema actualizare este review, veamos si con este precio puedo tener algo de uso diario, aunque eso si soy cuidadoso a la hora de guardarlos y no ando dandole mil vueltas como si fuera hilo al cable ya que eso es lo primero que te va a crear problemas de falso contacto en el audifono o en el plug.

Finally got around to buying Nokia again, and surely ain't disappointed. It was sad to see MS take them over, mess their product up, then close them. Really glad the locals bulled ahead and took back their products. The 6.2 battery system is little lacking, but it's rare and expensive to find smartphones that will go for a week without sucking down electrical juice. It's a little tight in my shirt pocket, depending on the shirt I'm wearing, but at least it fits most of mine. It's real slick (very limited surface friction) and likes to slide off just about anything, as well as out of my dry hands. Dropped a few times (without cracks or chips) before my holder arrived, and now things are all good. Can disable or remove most built-in apps, so only a few remain that aren't of interest to me. Picked up an alternate interface fairly quickly, just 'cause I like to fiddle and tweak to make it mine and organize my way. In short, I haven't been disappointed by returning to Nokia. Thanks guys. Y'all still do good work.

A group of campers go into the woods and encounter the territory of a wood spirit or ghillie suit bigfoot. It spent 31 minutes on pointless character development, who is having sex with whom and unrequited crushes and tensionless drama but that is much shorter than the 40 - 71 minute typical of movies trying to do full length with film filler and it was short enough that it didn't trigger my this is stupid reaction. The result was the film was shorter but when the action began it had a decent amount of time to develop. The creature suit was typical, a standard ghillie suit bigfoot and it was decent enough construction but the hands were distracting. Those pink stubby un-clawed protrusions made the monster look ridiculous and I wish they had spent time on a set of claws or CGI or something to augment it. I did really like the Harbinger, he was a terrible guardian but a decent crackpot Harbinger and it was odd to see him speaking like Yoda. I'm not sure if that was a part of the actor's regional or historical dialect to do that or if it was deliberate to make him seem a bit off but either way I liked seeing the translation subtitles done as Yoda speak. For some reason it fit for me. Once the attacks begin they were done with a bit if irony and I appreciate that. I also liked that the boring human drama I hate you for sleeping with him/her/it oh look a monster whatever blah blah was kept to a minimum and did not become more prevalent than background noise; this is appropriate for a movie labeled as horror. The scenes once the attacks begin were ok as was the acting and it lacked so much of the film a drop of water or scrolling wilderness for two minutes film filler that a lot of these outdoorsy films are infected with so all in all I would consider watching it at least once.

When I tell others they say 'what a heavy story line', though maybe since I am from Europe kids films there are more like this and I am used to? No idea. Don't forget to switch on subtitles. :)

One day I was at work and I lost my cross ring similar to this one in color and style... So I decided to look for a replacement and found this... I was a bit apprehensive because the quality of the Tungsten ring I lost was great... Well, after receiving this and seeing it for the very first time... Not only did this product exceeded my expectation, it also surpassed the overall quality of my old ring that I lost... The band is very comfortable and hard to scratch or damage... The picture is exactly what it looks like... The product also came in an elegant King Will box with the KW initial on the front of the box, making this item look very sleep and professional... Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase and will purchase more from King Will...

Slappy is my all-time favorite character in the Goosebumps series. Anything he is significantly in, I seek it out. This is such a complex character and every book tends to add on something new about the character. That being said, now to review this one.

I've not read a Goosebumps book since "Slappy's Nightmare," which was a little strange but still very delightful. However, I have to say "Son of Slappy" is currently (as of this post) my least favorite of the Slappy books. This book felt somewhat strange and out of place from the very beginning. I'm not sure what it was, but it just didn't feel...right. Slappy just felt very different and out of character. He was barely even in the story, said very little, was actually rather annoying, acquired a new adverb (tinny. Stine, what's up with that?), and his motivation was out of left field. I mean, at least in "Bride of the Living Dummy" he had a misconstrued motive. I'm not even sure what Slappy was hoping to achieve in this one. It felt like it just wasn't part of the canon. We learned rather little about his character. It just wasn't...SLAPPY. He just didn't make sense and it seems so weird for him to practically be an entirely different character altogether. I just didn't get it and this was, as of the time of this post, the weakest storyline of the Slappy books.

HOWEVER, all of that being said, it's not a terrible book. I would say that "Son of Slappy" is a good read for someone who has never read the other Slappy books. It feels like a stand-alone story and not part of an ongoing venture of one character. If anything, Slappy (after reading NotLD 1-3, Bride of the Living Dummy, and Slappy's Nightmare) is just not the same character and it's the first in the Slappy books I've read where very little is added on to his complex character aside from a new voice. Granted, we can argue the differences in Slappy's character is the up-in-the-air notion that this is not the same Slappy, but a copy (after all, the words are supposed to bring pretty much ANY dummy to life, if we are to believe the previous books).

To be honest, even the main character felt strange. Jackson is not a terrible character. If anything, he's actually really nicely written and you can't help but really feel sorry for him once Slappy comes along. Rachel is actually a very annoying character, though I think that was somewhat the point. It just felt like there was less story and this book was a collection of whining characters and a Slappy that was just like "I'm too old for this crap." Okay, seriously, if Slappy had actually said that in the book, that would have made this whole thing totally awesome. Just that one line would have made this book awesome.

But, please, let me clarify that the book, on its own, is a good book. It just kinda has its own little thing going on that just feels really different from other Goosebumps books, and especially the Slappy books. It's just very...different. If it was a stand-alone book, it would have probably gotten a higher rating from me. As it stands though, since it is part of an ongoing character arc of sorts (Slappy books, to this point, seemed to build off of each other to make Slappy a more and more real character, while this one felt like it made him a lot LESS of a real character. And his insults were just...really really lame. Granted, he was always kinda cheesy on his insults, but, this was just...groaners galore), it just didn't feel as strong as the others and Slappy was just not as good of a character.

Is there anything (from a major Slappy fan) that really stands out as good? Yes. The ending. And I don't mean that in a sarcastic way. The ending was actually rather satisfying. It still had the open-endedness that Stine is known for in his Goosebumps books, and while that can work or not work in each book, depending on the preference of the reader, the ending of this one did offer me a little something I needed. I just needed SOMETHING to redeem Slappy for me, and that was the ending. I won't give it away, but when I read it, I just felt a little bit of ease, as I felt like I had gotten a little bit of something I had been wanting out of the character for years. It's not HUGE on its own, but to me, it stuck out and made me rather happy, even if it was just so little. It was just the RIGHT thing to do with Slappy in this book and it is very much appreciated. It made him feel a little more real in a story where he just felt otherwise.

So, long story short: It's an okay book. Good read on its own. As another book in the SERIES of Slappy books, this is the weakest one.

Amazing continuation of a great story.

The First story "Home for Christmas" was a cute Christmas Story. It was a little fast paced and a little predictable. I wished that Jason and Faith didn't jump into sex so fast, but it was a sweet story of love and hope. If Nora had just made it longer,instead of making it fast paced it'd have been better. Over all it's a cute story that i enjoyed.

The Second Story "All I Want for Christmas" is the cutest story. About twin six year old boys, Zack and Zeke, and how this write a letter to Santa asking for a mom, wait not a mom "THE mom". It's a totally cute story, and you totaly fall inlove with The boys as well as with Nell and Mac.

Now, "Gabriel's Angel" was my favorite, and the reason i bought this book. I had previously read it, and i loved it so much i had to have it for myself! i ordered it with the other two novells instead of by itself because i wanted to read the others as well, but lets get to my review. This is about Laura, pregnant and alone, she is running from her baby's father's parents. She finds herself in the hands of Gabriel Bradley, a famous artist, in a cabin by themselves. Stuck in a snow storm for days, she must put her and her baby in his hands. A bit of a scrooge, Gabe is, but he takes them in. Little by little she opens up her story to him, and little by little they fall inlove. What started out as a marriage for money to help Laura keep custody of the baby, ended up with love, hope, and trust.

I HIGHLY recomend this book, if mostly for Gabriel's Angel.!!

Si quieren ir contemplar el reto del hombre ante los problemas,elevar el espíritu,viajar al Himalaya,no pierdan esta lectura donde además de una excelente prosa viven la emoción de la accion,la superación del ser humano,un amor supremo,además de comprender el pasado el comportamiento Ingles de respeto,tradiciones y contradictorio,en síntesis no se la pierdan.

I've read many, many Perry Masons, and this is by the far the most far-fetched and unbelievable. No court scene, but gun-running out of Shanghai, undercover detectives, secret communications, cats shooting suspects, Mason announcing that he's Lt. Tragg's brother, and an incredible range of characters from a typical American family to a highly stereotyped Chinese "first boy." (I should have counted the number of times "inscrutable" was used.) It's hard to keep track of the plot and even harder to stay interested in the characters, but Gardner's lean, fast style enable one to follow along if only to wonder how in the world he will wrap it up. He does wrap it up, but the conclusion doesn't have Gardner's typical psychological satisfaction. Gardner addicts will enjoy or tolerate it, but this one is not good for a first Perry Mason.

So far I only read the fist story and it seems a bit cheesy to me. Jessica seems like an inmature girl and Brodie seems like an overbearing tyrant that comes across as more future abuser than sexy take charge. The book is ok if you just want some mindless reading and not have to think too much.

How can a guy who can write the Metarese Circle barf up a waste of time like this. The drama wasn’t dramatic. The danger was ho hum. His referring to black men as blacks when that detail was wholly superfluous was annoying and points to his issues with black people. I finished out of respect for his other works, but this is a book to avoid.

Ormai sono passati 6 anni da quando ho acquistato e letto questo libro, ero convinto di aver già scritto una recensione, invece....mi sbagliavo!
Mi sono avvicinato alla serie Jason Bourne dopo aver visto i film (il primo lo presi in dvd in edicola) ed essermi appassionato alla storia.
Veniamo subito ai fatti: chi si aspetta un libro per "approfondire" quanto visto nel film, ha sbagliato indirizzo! il libro è molto diverso (ed ha molto più senso). A chi critica tali diversità, vorrei ricordare che il film è "basato su..." e non una ricostruzione cinematografica del libro.
Resta la storia di un agente operativo della CIA che ha perso la memoria, viene ripescato dal mare nel sud della Francia....ed inizia la storia de "l'uomo senza volto"; di come inizi ad ingegnarsi per trovare uno spazio al mondo, necessario per arrivare a quelle risposte, le cui domande, gli impediscono di capire chi è!
L'incontro ed il viaggio con Marie e....della missione "Caine ", da cui è nato tutto.
Dal mio punto di vista, il libro può definirsi "conclusivo" e lo consiglio vivamente

Es gibt ja viele Actionromane, Krimis, Agentenromane und etliche Schubladen in diesem Genre. Was ist das Besondere an Robert Ludlum? Er ist kein vielfacher Preisträger, und auch kein in den Medien stark gefeierter Autor.
Seine Bücher handeln von Menschen, wie wir sie im Alltag auch treffen würden. Die Beschreibung solcher "weißer Flecken" wie Geheimdienste kann mehr als gelungen gelten. Wo sonst bekommt man real wirkende Menschen in einem Geheimdienst präsentiert? Diese Beschreibungen üben eine eigene Faszination und Authentizität aus, die einen regelrecht in den Bann ziehen. Dabei vergisst man glatt, dass der arme Jason ein Einzelkämpfer gegen nicht nur ein (!) großes Unternehmen ist, eine in der Realität recht ausweglose Situation.
Damit ist Robert Ludlum mit seiner Bourne-Trilogie ein zeitloses Meisterwerk gelungen.

Le Shōnen manga par excellence, précurseur du genre, rempli d'humour(assez grivoise), beaucoup imité, jamais égalé !!

Culte pour toute une génération, si vous ne connaissaient pas faites vous votre propre avis, foncé et vous ne
saurez surement pas déçus!!

Un nouveau cycle commence, les aventures du jeune Sangoku sont finies, l'histoire fait place à un Sangoku devenu adulte et
ayant crée une famille.
Comme beaucoup je regrette énormément que l'humour des Tomes précédent qui faisait tout le charme de Dragon Ball
disparaissent à partir de ce Tome.
Malgré cela l'auteur continue(ou essaie pour certains) de nous réjouir avec une histoire prenante et des combats palpitant.

Dans le même genre je peux vous je peux vous conseiller Hunter X Hunter, One Piece, Naruto,Bleach, Fairy Tail, Death Note autres shōnen à succès et plus récemment My Hero Academia.

Bonne lecture à tous

Book one of the by-now very well established PRIVATE series of crime novels from The Incredible James Patterson Book Machine is the perfect example of not only how he writes his books, but also why they sell so incredibly well. Jack Morgan runs a firm of international private detectives, complete with a huge budget and the most talented and skilled of staff (in the world, no less) to keep it successful.

In this opening salvo, the reader doesn’t just have a single plot line to follow, or a single murder to solve. We have several of both running at once. Mixed up with the violence contained within the book’s covers are real life characters, with their own personal problems to solve, growing pains to get used to, heart aches to get over, and of course thugs (and killers) to beat up, or to put in jail, or simply to kill (in self defence, of course).

Book one is principally about catching the long term serial killer of school girls. The count is up to eighteen (yes, i said eighteen!) by the time the story gets started and we learn some disgusting facts about life in the far-too-accessible internet age when we are introduced to the sicko’s that are on the murdering spree. Then a major betting scandal hits the NFL, and Jack agrees to investigate. And to top it all off, the wife of Jack’s best friend is found murdered in her bedroom, leaving the husband (Jack's best friend) as the main suspect. With the open-case count at three, the firm closes it’s doors to any more, but that means making an enemy of a local mafia boss. Yikes! And they come to get their revenge at the book’s forty percent mark, but even then, the baddies get more than they bargained for.

Being book one of the series, we learn how the business got started, and we are gifted with a tiny dose of emotion with a cameo appearance from Jack Morgan’s father before he dies in prison. I think the book could have benefited with a larger (background) role for him to play, as well as more (realistic) grieving from the son when we learn what happened to his Dad.

But Mr Patterson’s books have never been big on emotional depth; they are plot driven, action based classics. And as the famous old saying goes, ’if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!’

This is clearly a solid beginning to this series. The release is not a new one; I think the book count in PRIVATE is approaching ten by now (May 2015). This one is not rushed by any means, but having just read PRIVATE VEGAS a few short weeks ago the newer books feel smoother and more sophisticated .

But this book is a great read in the James Patterson Genre, so I am happy to give it four solid stars.

BFN Greggorio!

The Mysterious Rider perhaps would have been better titled, Beauty and the Beast, and I am not in any way being disparaging. Zane Grey used the same type of plot lines for many of his books, and then added an extra character to bring the book to its logical conclusion. A young girl, the adopted daughter of a wealthy rancher, is forced to marry the rancher's no-good, drunk of a son, while the young girl loves another cowboy as different from the son as could possibly be--a similar scenario is found in Heritage of the Desert. But here a "mysterious stranger" is on the scene to make things right. And we can all guess who this "mysterious stranger" is, can't we? If you can't guess, I'm not going to tell you and ruin the book. Still, having said that, this book is a good Zane Grey romance told as only the master of historical romance could tell it, and worth reading--even more than once.

This is a direct sequel to last year's The Legend Of Caleb York. That novel was based on Mickey Spillane's unproduced screen play for a Western Movie for his friend John Wayne. This and much more is all covered in Max Allan Collin's entertaining introduction.

So this time Spillane's input is less being that he created the town and all the characters that inhabit it, while Collins does the new plot and creating some new characters and the actual scripting.

While the Mike Hammer books and most of Collin's solo work reads fine in any reading order, I strongly suggest the reading of Legend Of Caleb York prior to reading this volume. All the events in that story are otherwise all spoiled and the enjoyment of this novel is enhanced greatly by being familiar with these characters.

Since the body count in the first novel was rather high, we are introduced to relatives of many of the deceased players in this book. Harry Gauge the evil mastermind behind last volumes plans has a cousin named Zachary. The whore house madam Lola has a younger sister Rita. And Vint Rhomer the sadistic sheriff and Gauge's right hand man has five brothers, all bent on revenge.

The story takes place in the same town of Trinidad where Caleb York's first adventure took place. He has acted as Sheriff until he found a suitable replacement. Now on the eve of his departure for San Diego a bank robbery takes place and the new sheriff is killed.

The Bank Robbery is part of an intricate plot and soon multiple people are being murdered. At this point the novel kind of transforms into a Hard Bolied Crime story ( like both Spillane & Collins excell at) except set in the old west.

The mystery is fairly easy to figure out , but it's all about the journey to reach that point. It is very well written and fast paced. We get a small dose of sex and bigger helping of gory violence.

I throughly enjoyed this book and hope that the proposed third volume materializes. Highly Recommend.

For my purposes, this book was worth the price. I read it to my kids (9 & 12). My kids would not have read it on their own--the reading level and content was age-appropriate but it was perhaps "TMI" but I am glad we read it. It was a good enhancement to their study of World War I, provided some insight into the Middle East situation today, and prepared them for to view the 1962 film starring Peter O'Toole. The book is out of print and hard to find (I tried to get it through interlibrary loan). I was happy to find a used copy on amazon.

Elle James - Total Meltdown - (Hellfire Series Book 7)

The 7th Book in the Series is about the only female in the Grayson Family. She grew up with Four Alpha Brothers. But Lily Grayson can hold her own anyone, including her brothers. Lilly 24 years old and is a teacher in Hell Fire. During the summer she becomes an au pair with wealthy families and see’s the world on someone else’s dime, so to speak.

When her current summer au pair job is canceled at the last moment, one of her students suggests that she apply for the job with her student, sister and father, Antonio Delossantos to Cosa Rica where Antonio has a business interest. Antonio’s wife was killed by drug cartels, and he hasn’t gotten over her loss. He workes to drown the pain leaving the children under the care of a nanny. Just one small problem, she told Antonio off on the last day of school regarding not being in his children’s life. In the end, she is hired and travels with Antonio and his two children.

Lilly and Antonio are attracted to each other, and Lilly is determined to keep those feelings to herself, and besides, Antonio has a rule, never date an employee. So, when the white-hot passion takes over, Antonio must do one thing; first, he must fire Lilly. When the Drug Cartel come after Lilly and the children, Antonio must get them back safely, so he hires Hank Petersen and four of his best men from Brotherhood Protectors in the Crazy Mountains of Montana.

Will Antonio and the Brotherhood be able to get to Lilly and his children before it’s too late?

So, you ask yourself, why should I read this novella? If you haven’t read Ms. James books, you have missed one of the greatest writers of military romance books around. You will sometime laugh, cry and most of all, you will find that her white-hot passion will cause you to keep turning the pages until the last word. If you do read Ms. James’ books, you will love this installment of the Hell Fire Series.

I was given an ARC for an honest review.

I continue to enjoy this series. I loved the first book for all the funny banter between Ana and Christian, and the draw of the second book is learning more about Christian's background. I have a thing for wounded heroes, and he's one of the best. Fifty Shades Darker is also interesting due to the deeper exploration of their relationship, with its peaks and valleys, negotiation, and character development.

One thing I love about this romance is how much both characters influence each other in a positive direction. Ana stands strong many times, and she's appropriately appalled when Christian buys the publishing company where she works. (I know others think this is stalkerish but for some reason this made me laugh. Boys and their toys!) We do learn Christian has some legitimate concerns about her boss.

Here Ana won't back down when Christian doesn't want her to go to work due to one of his crazy ex-subs threatening their safety:

His mouth presses into a grim line, as I place my hands on my hips. I am not budging on this. Who does he think he is?
"I don't want you going to work."
"It's not up to you, Christian. This is not your decision to make."

I was pleased when they find a compromise. That's what couples need to do when there's disagreement.

And when Christian fights his fear to let Ana touch him? Those scenes made me well up in tears. Ana is the perfect person to help Christian overcome his Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Much better than the quack Dr. Flynn, who doesn't even name the correct diagnosis for Christian:

"Of course, there are obstacles--Christian's haphephobia, for one."
His what? I gasp.
"I'm sorry. I mean his fear of being touched...He has a morbid self-abhorrence. I'm sure that comes as no surprise to you. And of course there's the parasomnia...um -- night terrors, sorry, to the layperson."

Uh, Dr. Flynn, Christian fears being touched because it triggers a re-experiencing of the trauma from his childhood, and he wants to avoid any reminders of the trauma. Nightmares are another symptom of re-experiencing. A clear case of PTSD.

It's no wonder Dr. Flynn admits "Ana, in the very limited time that you've known him, you've made more progress with my patient than I have in the last two years."

Doy! It would help to start with a proper diagnosis, Dr. Flynn!

The ending is a great way to keep the reader interested. But the "inner goddess" stuff was starting to get on my nerves so I think I'll take a little break before book three--there are a lot of awesome novels by fellow authors I can't wait to get to first.

Ich war mal ganz faul und hab es vorgelesen bekommen von Alexa, es war zum Teil sehr holprig.

Die kurze Story passt, David hat mal was kurzes abgeliefert mit dem Camels Club.

Ich freue mich schon auf Band 7 "Sean King und Michelle Maxwell", leider noch nicht übersetzt.

Ja, ich mag die Bücher von "David Baldacci", die TV-Serie "King & Maxwell" nee nicht wirklich, es lag aber auch nicht an den Schauspielern, das Koppkino war besser beim Lesen.

It came on time and in a box protector, which was really nice. It is a great looking pop, and I love that it's the COS version of Tom Riddle and that he's in the flashback sepia color.

The frogs are very cute. However, I did not read former reviews and assumed I was ordering a small bag of frogs, not just 2 frogs (2 packs, 1 frog in each). So I received 2 packs, and one of the frogs was broken. This frog did make a very cute addition to my sons Harry Potter themed Bento. However, these frogs are a bit spendy. Having received one broken was a disappointment. I'm giving 3 stars because, all in all, it's a cute splurge item. I'm sure my son will love the wizard card inside too.

I am enjoying the content of these stories and that I do not have to break the bank with the cost.

I have been collecting Harry Potter Pops for the last few years and I take them out of the box - I know - scary!!! (I do make sure the boxes are looked after too.)

I have over a hundred of them on shelves in my office and on my book case, although I am running out of space now, but that won't stop me.

Yule Snape is a great figure to add to my collection. He has a lovely navy blue suit on. Stands up unaided and works perfectly with the other figures. The box arrived in perfect condition too.

Bought for a great prices - What more could I ask for?

I absolutely love this mug. I got it to replace another stainless steel mug like this and this was honestly an upgrade.
It doesn't leak (maybe a little if not closed all the way). It stays cold (I use it for water, I fill it with ice and the ice will last me for hours. Even when I left it in the car on a hot day there was still a ton of ice). I love the design and it does come off super easily. Easy to clean. And if I drop it, I'm more worried for the floor than I am for this mug.
Overall I just love this mug

Spoiler alert - the plot and the story have a Twilight Zone minute when we recognize this village is a theme park, but the true power of the story comes from quietly, simply imagining the inner life of Jews in Poland circa 1925, and a briefer, off stage imagining of a triumphant Third Reich running the whole world, a century into the thousand years and no end, no challenge in sight. No alternative easily imaginable within a functioning totalitarian society with 'way too many self-selected enthusiastic Nazis, so many that they bug every conversation, analyze and respond in a few hours.

With a few deft brush strokes, the inner solitude and even community of re-enactors starts to become clear, as a window on a society where the banality of evil has consumed almost all the oxygen, the spiritual space John Paul re-awakened preaching in the old Evil Empire. There's a parable about God being able to create sons for Abraham by the open power of His original act of creation, but here I think we see the quiet working that may be a greater miracle. Or as Hillel said, where ever two or three gather to study Torah, the true presence is also there, even in a theme park.

I received these as a Christmas gift and man they're great. Excellent value and shockingly comfortable. The doors are difficult to open, but I didn't want to tear them up anyway so I opened the box from the top. Ironically, the socks weren't even placed behind the correct doors.

Wegen der früheren Rezensionen hatte ich zunächst Bedenken, die Kaffeebecher zu bestellen. Als die Lieferung eintraf, habe ich die Tassen zunächst auf Mängel untersucht, konnte aber keine finden. Nun habe ich sie schon einige Wochen in Gebrauch und bin sehr damit zufrieden. Erstens sind sie groß genug, um damit Cappuccino zu brauen, zweitens kann ich die Tassen im Regal stapeln und drittens sind alle Gäste von dem hübschen Design entzückt. Ich hatte Glück und habe keinen Ausschuss erwischt. Kann sie nur empfehlen.

Cheap thin .. it’s a piece of fabric not a placemat

Cute as a button, baby loves this but first one it broke... :-(.
Bought a new one still need to return the old one.

Definitely a fun game. I bought it to go along with our homeschooling anatomy unit we are currently covering. It is fun enough for older kids, but my 6 year old got bored a little too quick... I'd say some of the questions are rather hard and the game is mostly reading. Overall, the game is okay and the kids have learned a few new things (like people in the 1800's used urine as mouthwash). Gross.

I love the minimal style that showcases the white Airpod case but also adds a hint of color. I bought it to match my red Iphone 10XR and I love how it complements it! This case provides great protection. After many drops the case isn’t scratched nor have my Airpods been damaged. My only compliant is the top half of the case has fallen off and is lost; now my Airpods are only halfway protected. I wish my adhesion was a bit better. Though I took points off for only having 1/2 of the case remaining, I would recommend! Just be sure your adhesive strip is used and firmly pressed onto the AirPod case lid

I already have the Impact Acoustics 40430 IR repeater in two locations in our house--- love them to death. What I wanted to find out was could I and then how to add a second IR receiver (NOT transmitter/ emitter) and unbelievably the World Wide Web as it is know did not have an answer for me. I had another brand that I tried and it should have been compatible-- but it was a no go. So I finally decided to buy a second of the same IR receiver and I use a Monster splitter---- my prayers were answered--- it works beautifully. What I have is a TV in one room and another TV with all of the equipment hidden in an entertainment center in another. Of course the TV is no problem, but I had to open the door to use the receiver, DVD, and cable box. After adding this I can now use it without having to open the door. I absolutely recommend this product and the 40430 repeater as well.

Fits perfectly on the iPad. The magnetic connection is very strong. The iPad does NOT fall out of the folio--whoever says this doesn't actually have the first party case. It does increase battery drain, but only by a little bit. Use is very seamless and I personally like the keyboard feedback. It's very slim and looks like a regular folio. The quality of the materials is really nice as well. The keyboard is water-resistant, which has come in handy for me once. The folio protects the front and back of the iPad. It looks really good with the iPad, you can tell that Apple put lots of time into making it look nice combined with the iPad. The color is charcoal-gray, not black as it might look in the picture.
Overall, I'm loving it. 5 stars.

I ordered two Xbox One Kinect sensors for a project i am working on and i ordered them around a day apart but both came from the same seller who was selling certified refurbished (this is a 100% lie as Microsoft does not authorize any dealers or distributors to certify anything), however there is a considerable savings so i was willing to take a chance that it could be a little banged up but fully expected the sensor would be in full working order. Both sensors i bought smelled really bad of cigarette smoke so the seller is likely a pawn shop simply passing off pawned/used sensors as certified refurbished which shouldn't be allowed. BUYERS BEWARE you get what you pay for, make sure your sensor fully works, one of mine did not arrive and was 100% dead on arrival which i returned and have since bought another sensor which is on it's way, so hopefully this 3rd sensor will work.

These are VERY COMFORTABLE! Im on crutches a lot due various orthopedic issues. The sheepskin pads make you want to walk with your crutches(not kidding). There is no irritation or slippery feeling like other crutch padding. I had ordered another set of padding at the same time for about $8 more just to compare. There is not a little but a huge difference in comfort. I was surprised because the sheepskin pads were $8 dollars less. Another big plus is there washable. I washed and dryed them and still a perfect fit. Im ordering another set today to have on standby for my crutch use after my surgery this summer. GREAT PRODUCT!

I have been trying different kinds of pillows to get better sleep because I have very bad sleeping quality. This pillow is the best I have ever had!
It is either too soft or too hard. It just lies in the middle of sweet spot. It can firmly support my neck and shoulder. I used this pillow for the last few nights and I got very well sleep. My experience is that once you neck touches that pillow, you don't want to get up again.
One amazing thing is the price. Such a cheap price to get nice quality! Would like to recommend this to my friends. In fact, I would just place orders to buy ones for my parents too.

I was wondering why the image quality was poorer than expected, I put this protector on right out of the box so didn't have anything to compare it with - but this did seem to have an effect on the overall quality and it created a glare from light sources. Additionally, it does not stick well and can easily fall off if the side is clipped on your case. The pack comes with two, after the first one started to peel from the corners I applied the second (within a couple days from the first) and started seeing the same problem immediately.

Save your money.

Very nice tripod and ring light. The light has different levels as well as modes of lighting. Cokes with a wireless remote as well as a plug in to adjust the brightness and to turn the light off and on. I love that you can have your phone plugged in charging while streaming live or making a video.

We often have sprouted moong dal at breakfast and this product is perfect for that purpose. Although the seeds are small, they are uniformly sized and they sprout perfectly. The flavour is fresh and slightly sweet. I have purchased this product 3 times since the lockdown began and our experience has been completely satisfactory. I am surprised to some negative reviews from other customers.

Just tried these for the first time and am hooked! It’s like a flavor explosion in my mouth, they come in different fun shapes, vibrant colors and an array of flavors.

This is the best and most unique licorice I’ve ever had. (Placing a second order now, the first didn’t last very long). Lol

I'm not a big tea drinker but I use licorice root for the digestion benefits. First I tried the capsules but you have to take them all day long. Next I did the liquid which I did like but it way too expensive. I think the bottle only lasted 2 weeks so the tea is what I've settled on. Tastes great. I brew it then add it to my water and since I drink water all day it's a perfect fit. I also add a little to my morning smoothie for the sweetness. I feel like this is the most economical way to go

These are one of my favorite childhood snacks! They used to sell them at a store near me but stopped over a year ago. They also came about 5 days earlier than the delivery date. Will buy again!

Los regalices de fresa rellenitos de nata de toda la vida, vinieron blanditos y la caja cerrada y muy bien protegida con burbujas de aire a los lados.

En casa no duran nada por lo que ¡repetiremos!

Yo la recuerdo de ver a mis abuelos tomar estos caramelos y la primera vez que lo probé siendo niño me resultó fuerte ese sabor de regaliz con mentol y a lo largo de los años lo he usado por temporadas,pues al verlo en Amazon he vuelto ha retomar este agradable sabor que además despeja la nariz eficazmente inhibe el apetito del que voy sobrado y tiene un sabor a menta fuerte para algunos como mi mujer a mi me encanta.

I was looking for a specific kind of candy I used to eat in Spain. This fits the bill! So addicting.
