I thoroughly enjoyed reading this boxed set.  You cannot read just one book in this series.  It is very dark, one of the darkest I have read.  It is not for people who do not like violence and bloodshed for there is a lot of it in these books.  There is good storytelling in these books and reminds me of the mafia movies I love to watch, but better because books are always better.  My favorite of the set is the first called Colour My Ugly and I was really shocked at the end!  Monochrome My Madness is really out there and that is why I enjoyed it so much.  My Black Hole Heart was not how I expected to turn out which was another reason why I enjoyed it.  This set is not written like many books out there and is very unique.  I plan on reading more from Ashleigh Giannoccaro, I found her writing intriguing to read.

I have been following this series from the beginning and am so glad that the author finally released it as a boxset with episodes 1-4. I was hooked on this series from the start and love the fantasy-urban mythical creatures that devour the story. The series has got great characterization and the drama unfolds in ways you can't predict. If you are looking for something to read this weekend, I highly recommend you grab the box set now because after reading the first episode, you're going to want the rest of them anyway!

I couldn't put these books down.  I was literally reading them 20 minutes before my  wedding. Even thoug I have read all 3, I still have to read just a little bit of one every night. Great set at a wonderful price.

I was able to read this series from beginning to end in a couple of weeks.  It is a remarkable set of books and I highly recommend them to anyone.  The concept of transfering an attribute to another is amazing and somehow makes a lot of sense.  Farland captures you in the first book The Runelords and does not let you rest until the very end of The Lair of Bones.  Absolutly fantastic,  take a little while to read this and all the others in this series.  It will be worth your time.

I've enjoyed these books so much.  I can't believe I've rushed to read the third before I've even given a review for this book !  I'm heading to the fourth and just realized I've been so wrapped up in the stories that I've missed the last two reviews !  That's saying a lot.  this second story was one of the best !  They get better and better.  I love this author and this set of books.  The reviews speak for themselves but oh this one kept me glued to the book till I finished it in the wee hours of the morning.  And I just went right on to the next !  I will go back and re read them when I've finished only to enjoy the full connection between all the characters.  I love how they are connected but each a totally full separate story that could be read as a stand alone.  But oh, please treat yourself to the whole set.  These are good stories.

After reading the six books in John Mefford's "Booker" series independently, I only continue to be truly delighted by his books and writing. You can go back to each one of the books and verify my reviews where I was  a VERIFIED PURCHASER throughout. My reviews have consistently been very positive. I agree with all five-star reviews and I will not be giving you any spoilers here!!!

The three books in this set are packed with quality writing, character development, and action, which will PULL YOU IN & ENGAGE you. As you read you will learn about the characters so much you will feel you know them personally, and care for them almost like good friends. At times one bad things happen to them you will feel as if it happened to you or someone you know.

I would just like to make a specific comment about  the book 'No Ms' and I hope that it will illustrate how I have really enjoyed these books. I was born in Guatemala and speak Spanish fluently. All through  'No Ms'  Mr. Mefford uses Spanish and I can't avoid thinking he must be bilingual! Details like using two languages fluently show not only talent, but also careful preparation.

Warning: You will not just read this thriller, you will LIVE IT!

If you're like me, something of a late-comer to the addiction that is Harry Potter, this boxed set is pretty much a no-brainer.  You get the first four books in the series in a very impressive and artistically appealing format, each volume a more than worthy bearer of the magic, fascination, and all-around magical wonder that is Harry Potter, complemented extremely well by the seemingly simple and subdued yet quite telling and well-nigh perfect illustrations of Mary GrandPre.  All four of these books are enthralling, and I heartily recommend you do purchase them all at once; while the wait for Book Six will be a long one indeed, it's amazing how long a wait just a day or two can be if you find yourself finished with one of these volumes and unable to immediately pounce upon the next one in the series.  Thrill to the wonder of Hogwarts and its world of magic in The Sorcerer's Stone, delve gleefully into the mysteries contained within the Chamber of Secrets, watch in fascination as the story of The Prisoner of Azkaban is revealed, and then get ready to enjoy the lengthy yet all too short narrative of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, easily the best book in the series thus far and, quite honestly, one of the most compelling, exciting, thoroughly enjoyable novels I have ever read.  If you want to know what all of the incredible hype is about, you really owe it to yourself to visit the magical world of Harry Potter, and this boxed set is the perfect avenue by which to enter the realm.

This box set has three great stories you definitely won't want to pass up. All three stories in this boxed set will warm your heart. The writing is fantastic, the setting for these stories are magical, but also very believable, as well. The town where these stories take place is pretty small, and the people who live there are a pretty close nit bunch. So....you will get to see most of the characters that live in that small mountain town, throughout all three of these books. I like that factor the most, because you don't have to go through and learn about a whole new set of people each time you start the next story.

I would highly recommend this boxed set to everyone.

I am so in love with this set! I can reread to my hearts content. Such complex characters, and they develop at an easy pace(not shoved up your gourd). I will be reading any I can get my hands on now, huge fan. I enjoyed the creative writing in this story, especially when it came to our main alpha. I was strong, dominate, but willing to embrace life. I am impressed. Thank you so much for the awesome read!

This is simply an amazing set!  The book is wonderfully made, and should appeal to children who want to see the stories and also to musicians.  The CD...ah, the CD!  This isn't just a kid's music CD by any means!  Not when you have the Spin Doctors and Hootie & The Blowfish and Blues Traveler inside.  Not to mention Billy J. Kramer with the three-part genius that is Cow Planet!  Plus the Bacon Brothers, and Weird Al dueting on the most subversive kid's song ever with, of all people, Kate Winslet.  I need a nap indeed!  There's even some old-school Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme action here!  I have to be honest here...I bought this for my own shelf, no kids involved.  All bow before the towering amazingness of Sandra Boynton for putting this incredible set together!

This is a wonderful set, which includes both season 1 & 2 as well as the Christmas special, that I read was not always included in other sets.  The story line is intriguing and pulls you in, both with the residents of Downton Abbey as well as their servants "downstairs".  I highly recommend this set to anyone who loves the show, or even if you came in late and have only seen a couple of episodes.  You will not be disappointed.

This second collection is every bit as good as the firstmaybe even better. These are so well-written, intelligent, and witty. I'm just in awe of the way the author uses language to paint such vivid pictures.

It would be hard to pick a favorite from this set. Every time I thought I'd found the one I liked best, Ms. Cie delivered another one that knocked me over.

It's safe to say the author has earned a new fan. These collections should be required reading for anyone in literature or women's studies courses. They're so rich and beautiful, and I wish I had ten more people to discuss them with.

I was given this in return for an honest review by Inked Rainbow Reads.
