This is a brilliant and very cheap little book. It doesn't take much reading and has all the area you could require for a simple garden. The A-Z of vegetables is clear; just what is needed to go with the month by month guide. It is also helpful to deal with any problems one might come across. All together a well rounded book! Some of the diagrams would perhaps benefit from some colour though. Carla x

Books : The Chrysalids (Penguin Modern Classics)

The Chrysalids (Penguin Modern Classics)

Used Price: £0.59


We think that Wyndham's book 'The Chrysalids' was an extraordinary book with amazing descriptions. This book would be suitable for people of 11 years and upwards. Some of the ideas are quite challenging, but we read it in class, and were able to have discussions about some of these elements, for example whether the Great Horses were a deviation or not.

The book starts with David's dream of a calm sea, and a shining city with flying fish shaped machines, but this is a world that the people of Waknuk have never seen. The introduction made us think initially that the book might be a little boring, but then we met Sophie. Sophie is a normal, fun loving girl...or is she...

'The Chrysalids' is great because it doesn't give ... Read More:

The majority of the story appears complex as it unfolds, but blossoms into a beautifully written conjunction of the three main story arcs: three characters of different times and places, one the creator of the technology another relies upon, the other hopelessly intertwined with both. The inexplicable and deeply interesting events of the plot somehow follow one another into deeper madness, yet never confuse or put off the reader. The net result is an easy-to-read, intricately composed piece of literary fiction pretending to be sci-fi.

Awesome: 8.5/10

Wonderful prose, wonderful imagination, a writer who has brought fantasy and literary fiction together in one of the most powerful creations in the genre; and he's a writer who refuses to let the conventions and limitations of genre and place get the better of him. This is an essential read for anyone who demands more than a simple page turner.

This is a very helpful commentary for anyone wanting to read Medea in the original ancient greek. The reviews above seem to refer to another book. This commentary has the greek text but no translations so the remarks about a translation are misleading.

And that's saying something. I read up to three books a week and have done for 20 years. As has already been commented, this guy uses between a paragraph and a page to write what others would in one word. It's so bad that it is often difficult to work out what is being said because you've forgotten the context by the time you reach the end of the description. Someone else mentioned an Iain Banks credit on the cover... well yes, but he was reviewing the SF Masterworks series rather than the book, which smacks of desperation. Possibly they couldn't find any other positive comments to use? As to the plot and characters, well they were terminally depressing in every way. I found myself skipping whole chapters just to see if anything improved.
Avoid at all costs.
