the most realistic description

This has to be one of the most realistic description of the effects of war. The story is compelling, the sense of emotion is overwhelming. I have already recommended this book to friends that loved it. It's a must buy, and a must talk about. Excellent.

This book is depressingly real.  While most of us will never be famous academics, the real story of early onset alzhemiers is very real.  I think the book captured, very realistically, how one might feel and how our families would react to such news.  This is not a light read where everything ends happily.  I found I could imagine knowing Alice and her family felt like other people that I know.  From the first time she forgets how to get home, I could imagine how I might feel in the same situation.  It's a good, if hard, read.

...in an almost "logical" way for a life that unfolds in a most "natural"/realistic way, described with a beautifully concise style.

A very nicely written fictional account that is probably as close to reality than one would imagine.  It was an enjoyable read that was done with research and experience.  Any pilot would enjoy this book.

I loved the way this story was laid out; it seemed so realistic.  There was nothing that I could see that led me to believe it was in any form unbiblical.  Extremely enjoyable with few editorial mistakes.

Damien is more realistic to the real world.
It's still a dream guy that you'll probably never fine but I gives a more real feel to real life than some over the top fantasy

This book is SO real that I had to keep reminding myself that it's fiction! The compiled characters are so real that I've known kids just like them. The truisms of special ed are all over this one, including the last line--"No one was lost, hurt or crying-a good time was had by all." (location 463). How true! This is a realistic look inside of a more severe disabilities classroom (with loads of behaviors) with a terrific teacher; not every teacher is cut out for such a classroom.

MOST highly recommended

They did a pretty good job of making it look real. Nice scenery and informative since most of it is pure speculation.

Nicely detailed combat accounts that vividly give you the sense that you were there.  One of the better combat descriptions I have read as he does a wonderful job of expressing what it actually felt like to him as he was experiencing it.  I can easily see why this was a huge seller during  wartime.

I was pleasantly surprised by this one. The descriptions painted such a vivid picture. The story really had me wondering what experience the protagonist would run into next.

This is the MOST REALISTIC COMBAT SIMULATOR ever made. I spent 6 months in the Persian Gulf with a Marine Rifle Battalion, we were the 3rd Unit to enter Kuwait City, and contrary to CNN and all the critics, it was pretty hairy. This game comes as close as a computer game can come to pure realism. There are 40+ add-on missions to the demo, which allow you to explore all facets of the Simulator. From Armored Combat to Squad Tactics.
As for James Cope, you do know you can remap all the controls brainiac. No need for Star removal.
THIS GAME RULES!!Semper Fi

I love this book. It describes real life situations that you either have been in or knows someone who has.

So realistic, with  wonderful character descriptions, that I found myself hoping against what I knew was their terrible fate. History at its best.

Very realistically presented.  Present the probable effects of an EMP on various sectors of the community in addition to its effect on the primary characters.  Characters are likable

In the case of such an event ever -would- happen, you can count on this book actually providing realistic and very serious guidelines for a highly unlikely, fictional scenario.

For a fan of a zombie outbreak, this is not a bad choice of a read.

This is one of the more realistic views of what will happen after an emp in my opinion. No sugar coating here the author has done his homework and tells it like it is. While this isn't a how to book it's more a what if or when it happens this is what to expect book.

This is an engaging detailed description of a sperm whale's life, including small details of mother-calf interaction, whale community games, and shared knowledge. I have no idea if it's accurate but it sounds pretty realistic to us! They should re-issue this.
