Under Alien Skies should have been a picture book, but that doesn’t mean it fails in its mission as-is.
Why We Are Restless Review
Reading it will affirm your notions that there is more to life than a quest for immanent contentment and universal, unmitigated approbation, but it may well leave you feeling more restless than when you began.
The Dragon Waiting Review
A few, core, what-if questions form the foundation of Ford’s genre-blending The Dragon Waiting. The most important is what if Byzantium adopted a policy of religious toleration instead of Christianity? Oh, and what if there were vampires and wizards, too?
Destiny of the Republic Review
Even putting aside my desire for it to be a more comprehensive biography of Garfield, Destiny of the Republic is a somewhat confused book that never really lives up to its grandiose title, nor successfully makes its main argument.
The Discarded Image Review
It is about informing our understanding of our modern world, of the ideas we continue to echo, and of the assumptions which we make without questioning, without realizing they are assumptions at all, so fundamental are they to how we view the world.
Canterbury Tales Review
More even than other historical works, it is a true portal to the past, replete with everything that implies for the historian, the author, the worldbuilder, and the simply curious.
A Story as Sharp as a Knife Review
The book spends more time on Bringhurst’s analysis, philosophizing, and linguistic and cultural musings than it does actually presenting Haida stories.
Lord of Chaos Review
Mainly, this is another book about Rand, and Jordan again manages to convey both the sense that Rand is going mad, and how each step and action he takes is reasonable and logical for itself.
American Catholic Review
Perhaps of the greatest interest in American Catholic is the acknowledgement of some of the foundations, largely from the political and cultural movements of the 1960s, of the modern tensions between establishment and exercise.
The Healing Hand Review
The Healing Hand is a fantastic piece of nonfiction which I think anyone could find interest in, but it should be required reading for anyone writing about wounds in a historical (or secondary world historical) context.
