This was an engaging, entertaining, fast paced fantasy. The plot flowed. There were creative characters. The moral delima of war and taking a life even in self defense or to defend another was wrestled with by Ivan the main character who is only 13 years old.

This is by far the best cloak I've ever worn, it's so soft and the size and shape is perfect

All 3 of "His Dark Materials" in a single volume.  Contains Northern Lights (aka the Golden Compass), the Subtle Knife, and the Amber Spyglass.  These are challenging books of great ambition while delivering a fast paced story of high adventure.  I loved Rowling's Harry Potter books, but the His Dark Materials is much more subversive, entertaining, and satisfying especially for an adult audience.  Sensitive people with dogmatic traditional Christian world view may find the books upsetting, so caveat emptor.  The protagonist Lyra may be one of the strongest most admirable true female heroes in literature.  Loved it!

Ever since J.K. Rowling made it cool for adults to read kids and YA literature, adults have become even more aware of just how good "children's fiction" continues to get.  'The Tell-Tale Start' - designates for reader eight years and up - creates interest for kids and adults alike by bringing to life the great-great-great-great grandnephews of literary legend Edgar Allan Poe, orphaned identical twins Edgar and Allan who live in present-day Baltimore with their caring aunt and uncle.  The psychic bond between Edgar and Allan is almost supernatural; even when not together, one sees and feels and reacts to what is going on with the other, their minds virtually one - and while it's elevated both their intelligence and crafty senses of humor to levels adults can't begin to understand, it's also made them the target of a sinister scientist who kidnaps their best friend and cat, Roderick Usher, in order to lure the twins into his own experiments.  Fun, a bit macabre, and with enough Poe references (including a few cameos from the great writer himself) to both entertain adults and get kids curious about the literary legend, 'TheTell-Tale Start' (which includes wonderful illustrations by Sam Zuppardi) is a nice intro to a unique series.

Gift of the Ancient Grove is a wonderful story, full of strong, interesting characters.  In this book, we are introduced to the world of trolls, elves, gnomes, and sprites, told through the adventure of Naida and her friend Randin.  This world, and the young gnomes adventure will capture the imagination of all childern.  Naida and Randin set out on their unusual quest and encounter a wide variety of creatures. The character description leaves the reader feeling as though they can actually see, hear and smell the elves and their environments.
This book is perfect for 8 to 12 year old readers.  The language is age appropriate and descriptive.  The characters are not trying to be teenagers before their time, a quality lacking in many childrens books today. However, this book is very fun to read for teens and adults as well.

A great read intended for young adult readers that speaks to any age. Somehow Pratchett has the ability to reach inside to the reader's memory and imagination to make it a pleasing read for adults. The author portrays female characters with honor and grace which is rare among authors, both male and female.

Taking into account that this book is geared toward younger readers I still found it very entertaining. It melds history, religion, culture, magic into an intriguing storyline featuring straightforward representatives of good and evil that doesn't feature a lot of surprises but easily keeps your attention. The humour provided by the shape-shifting eunuch is an added bonus and I could almost picture those scenes brought to life in animation. An excellent book for its target audience.

Most D&D clothing is too corny for words but this is cool. Even though its technically a long-sleeve tee I wore it for 'ugly sweater day' @ work. Everybody loved it. Even dragons light their trees for X-mas !

This is a comedic tale of how true nobility is determined by character not bloodline. It is a story that appeals to all ages. My parents in their early 70's, my nephews and neices ranging in ages between 7 - 28, and my siblings and myself ranging in ages between 38 - 48 all enjoyed it from start to finish. Most people I know who have seen the movie go out of there way to see it more than once.

I loved this story! I can definitely see why this won the Newbery Award. There were so many great characters with intriguing life stories. I found the interwoven stories of the two time periods really interesting and loved the way everything came together in the end. It was really neat to see all the pieces of the story fall in to place and discover everything along with the main character. I think this story would appeal to all ages, not just kids. I loved it.

Pros Very heavy well made great fit
Cons should have a quality clasp already will add.
This cloak is very well made I have owned many new and old. The stitching is good. Wool outer layer and linen inner are great material choices. Should offer colors on linen side. It could be reversal if wanted. Very warm

Matthew Jobin's adventure fantasy novel, The Nethergrim, is full of magic and mystery, and is a story you'll not want to miss. This Old World tale is set in a place with shabby huts and hovels amidst mystical moors; a place where strange, evil creatures could be lurking around every corner. The author skillfully weaves a tale of friendship and heroism in this upper middle grade book with well developed characters and a plot full of twists and turns. I would highly recommend The Nethergrim to readers from the ages of eight to eighty!
