Ahhhhh, The Adventures of Black Jack Pepper, is a book that should be a must read on everyone's TBR list. Technically geared towards the younger generations, adults will find this book to be such a hilarious read that they'll be amazed that they actually enjoyed a book way out of their age range.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and my daughter did as well. If you've been curious about the YA or MG genres and don't really know where to start, or if you have a child that is just starting to explore the wonderful world of reading and their imagination, then this book is for your.

Because Amazon doesn't do half starts, I give four stars above and a half star here.

I have not had the time to go through all the book but it looks very good. there are a lot more pictures and more colorful diagrams. The new diagrams look more intuitive and easier to follow. Thanks a lot guys!!

I really like this book. It is very interesting even though I didn't previously have an interest in crystals. It has a lot of information and the author makes it easy to understand. The book has all the information that you need to know. I really like it, I had a few times where it was hard to put down. The book is made well too. It is paperback but the pages are thicker than other books I have read. The text is very easy to read and there are pictures of crystals showing what they look like. It explains crystals, how to use them, and where to use them. It has a part that talks about how crystals can help things like balance, anxiety, regret, motivation, self confidence, prosperity, trust, love, patience, and many other problems.
I think this is a great book if you want to learn something new or have an interest in crystals. It has all the different crystals and one whole page each explaining their origin, shapes, colors, energy, what that crystal helps with, and many other things. It also has a part that talks about how a person can feel a crystal's energy. It talks about experiencing it in a meaningful way, by being open to it, setting aside your expectations of the outcome, any preconceived notions, and more. I did receive a copy from the publisher but that did not affect my opinion. I would recommend this to family and friends.

I am in the process of building a tube guitar amp and picked up this book. This has got to be the most comprehensive book of it's kind. Everything is explained very simply with great illustrations/pictures to help pull it all together. You don't have to have an engineering degree to understand what he's laying out for you. On the same note, he doesn't over-explain things but manages to leave no stone left unturned. All in all it's a job very well done. I'll be keeping this book handy for years to come!

I was already sold on the importance of magnesium. This book was filled with solid references and explanations on the workings on magnesium. I wasn't aware of how many diseases (like asthma) magnesium might be helpful in. The sections about how magnesium is measured were also very informative.

I have recently started getting ''into'' crystals, and of course have been searching high and low for information.  I have gotten about 8 books on crystals, and have been rather disappointed in many of them.  This one however, I really love!  It's not a big book, and it's very basic.  But the thing is, it's got all the basics in it!  This is not a book with a bunch of crystals pictured and identified.  This book is one to give you a feel for what you can do with them, what you should do with them, and just lots of basics.  It's got several really great charts in it.  It has got a very basic rundown on many crystals (no pictures) giving a short description and a short list of uses for them.  It has really got a lot of good info packed into a compact but very readable book.  I would recommend this for someone who is interested but not sure HOW interested, or to someone who is starting out and needs some basics.  For people wanting to get into it deeper at all, I totally loved Melanie's book.  GREAT book!  (No pictures though.)  As far as a picture and scientific descriptive book (both of which I would recommend if you are going to get into it deeply), I don't have one I would recommend.  I have the Judy Hall book and the Book of Stones, by Robert Simmons.  I just couldn't recommend either one of them, though I thought they'd both be fantastic.  At this point I think I'm going to order a Field Guide and go with that!  Right now it's looking to me like you have to choose a particular aspect and just get one book that's good on that.  I have not found one that just has everything!

But this book is definitely great for a starter; I am very pleased with it.

If you are interesting in M-theory in any capacity this would be for you. Smolin is a bit on the technical side in this book but if you have a basic grasp of strings as a whole you can follow this no problem.

Smolin and Magueijo are a tag team for the ages. I would definitely recommend this book.

I had to read it all in one sitting! I've enjoyed reading MG survival stories since I was in that age bracket, and this one goes even deeper than that, with sharp dialogue and tense situations that kept me hoping for the best even as I feared the worst. Highly recommended!

I have all of MG's books and was not disappointed by this one. Always engaging and insightful and well researched.

This guide is so much better collectors edition than the one that I bought when this game was released back in September.  This edition offers more tips than the standard guide.  I enjoyed getting the signed Lithograph that came with it and even the maps.  Even though I had maps that came with the game case these were printed on white background compared to black.  However there isn't much difference other than glossy or regular paper.  I liked reading the history of Metal Gear.  From the beginning and up to the last installment was very interesting  I liked how they broke down every gun, item and technique on how to fulton extract someone.  But above all else I liked how they would push you to do the mission for yourself then read how to get that ever popular S rank.  Even includes Bios of Big Boss, Eva, Sigint, Miller, Ocelot to name a few.  Not to mention it includes all major players in this franchise that is worth a read.  Like the tips it gives you in regards to motherbase and how to properly keep it running smoothly.

Recommend this guide not only to owners of Metal Gear Solid V game but also those who wish to know a little bit more of this very nice and stealthy game.

I am very happy with this book... It is a tiny book so it is very portable, yet it is filled with great information that you don't find in most crystal books, like how to charge your crystals in sunlight or moonlight, storing crystals, etc. Overall I am very happy with this book find.

How to Power-Tune MGB 4-cylinder engines is a good all-around book, although some of the language can be confusing.  A good point about this book is that it does not only focus on the engine, but on exhaust, intake,  tires, carburation, etc.  It tells you exact brands that are good, and that  is also nice.  However, as this book is produced in England, many parts  from companies are not available. I highly reccommend this book to anyone  owning an MGB.

I really enjoyed this book.  The author does a solid job of explaining everything you need to know to write games for MIDP devices.  If you are familiar with Jonathan Knudsen's book on J2ME (probably the best book on the subject), this book expands the single games chapter into a fun and interesting book.

The book starts with a quick sample showing us how to use the Sun IDE and how to run our games on the emulator and how to download our games to a phone.  The author shows a couple of example games, a maze and a jumping game, that give a good overview of the basic techniques games use on MIDP devices.  She then expands those examples by showing proper use of threads and shows how to play tones and music during a game.  Storing information (such as high scores or user preferences) is demonstrated.  Downloading game enhancements such as new levels for a dungeon game are also demonstrated.  The book is full of well-commented code samples (worth stealing) that show the techniques being discussed.

The author of this book has a nice, easy to read style of writing.  Her enthusiasm for the topic comes through and makes you want to try the many sample games.  If you have been spending too much time on enterprise programming then playing around with some MIDP games might be just the antidote and this book will get you started on the fun.

I really enjoyed reading this book. It gave a great overview of everything. It is designed for someone getting into the hobby like myself. The book is a little shorter than I expected, but all of the key elements are in there. Lots of pics and an easy read.

This is great for learning the basics. It's written by a woman who makes it easy for other women to understand. Now I understand all this 'mechanics' talk from the guys. Lots of illustrations and very descriptive. Really enjoyed this book.
