I recommend this book to anyone interested in modern music. It's full of interesting facts about my favorite groups and introduced me to bands that I had never heard of.

Easy read, lots of action, and a touch of scifi. Looking forward to reading the other books in this series.

If you like Rock and Roll history, this is great book. It goes through each act that played at Woodstock, with interviews from band members and other festival participants. Commentary by the author, who was an FM DJ at the time, puts it all in context, and provides a feel for what was going on in music and the country in the 1960's.

Set in London's SOHO in the 1950s, the story is full of action, mystery, and a bit of romance. The Doctor gets in deep trouble with malicious aliens and earthling gangsters more often than usual. And it makes you think... A good read.

This book presents a view of Batman that I, a longtime fan, have never considered. What is Batman's life outside of crime fighting? Does he have one? The answer is "not really", which does does not make for a healthy balanced human being. There is still plenty of action, and villains to thwart, but this inside look at Batman's personal life is interesting as well.

A real page turner - I finished it in less than 24 hours. Mystery, action, and a little romance; a fun read.

My first experience with this author/series. Great twisted-serial- killer-hunter fun. Already bought another book in the series and will be looking for others.

Another great book by one of my favorite authors (or co-author in this case), Neal Stephenson. The FBI, CIA, NSA, Turkish spies, and an Iowa deputy sheriff all play a role in combating Iraqi terrorists in a small mid-western town. But while the powers-that-be in Washington are deciding whether to believe that trouble is brewing in Wapsipinicon Iowa, the deputy is on his own... A real page turner.

If you are a Neal Stephenson fan, you will love this series - very deep plots and great characters, set it the late 17th / early 18th century, mainly in western Europe, but with adventures all over the world.

Typical Neal Stephenson story - lots of interesting characters, plot twists, and a touch of technology. I read everything of his that I can get my hands on.

Edge of your seat biotech thriller. World-changing events are unfolding, but no one wants to believe it.

Nice mystery with humor and great characters, just like the rest of the series. Fun read.

If you like William Gibson cyberpunk novels, you'll like this one. Less emphasis on computer technology, more about bio-engineering (gone very wrong, in this story). A gripping read.

I liked the first book of this series and I liked this one even more. Complicated scenarios and plenty of action in exotic locales. Reminds me of Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. Highly recommend it.

Twelve short stories, each about one of the first 12 Doctors and each by a different author. All very different and very enjoyable. A must read for any Doctor Who fan.
Review Date: 11/26/2019
Good Doctor Who tale, with terrifying bad guy aliens, set to destroy a world for their own gain. And the world's leaders won't believe what's going on. But once again, the Doctor and his allies triumph using only his wits and trusty sonic screwdriver.
Review Date: 11/27/2006
Good murder mysteries. Kept me guessing until the end.

Enjoyed this book. This came out before the Nightside series and contains many references that Nightside fans will recognize. If you like the Nightside series, you'll like this book.
