Book Description
In precisely the same spirit as Abelard and Heloise and Romeo and Juliet, Paul and Juliana are a fresh young couple who embody the near-impossible notion of perfect love. In this elegant, timeless, and lyrical love story, they walk the fine line between forbidden romance and tragic disaster that is the stuff of ageless myths.
Mr. Lawrence is a guidance counselor relegated to the mind-numbing task of proctoring standardized tests at his Chicago-area high school, then analyzing the results. Over-educated and over-cultured for his station, Lawrence is emotionally stifled, an island unto himself—until chance circumstance throws him into the lives of two high school students, Paul Berrisford and Juliana Franck.
Paul is a sloppy genius who would rather sing and play his guitar on a street corner than take the SATs and have his pick of Ivy League schools. Juliana is a lovely musical prodigy kept under the thumb of her old-fashioned, Viennese-born parents. Through Lawrence's furtive but well-intentioned design, Paul and Juliana meet one another, then fall in love, almost at first glance.
Together, the two are a picture of courtly love brought to modern life. Lawrence's guidance sessions with them begin to grow into a friendship between the three, and slowly, his own admiration and affection for the couple begins to develop into love. But is he in love with Paul, or with Juliana? Or is he in love with their love?
The situation takes an ill-fated turn when Juliana's parents catch her in a clandestine, prohibited moment with Paul. The couple's respective parents, concerned about each child's welfare, forbid them to see one other. Lawrence, like the friar in Romeo and Juliet, is caught in the middle, struggling between emotion and professionalism. At the climax, Paul and Juliana come to a fork in the road, one route that could kill their love—and another that could kill them.
Author Richard Hawley revives the classical romance in order to ask age-old questions: Is true adolescent love possible? What is perfect love? And what is perfection? Paul and Juliana leaves the answers up to you, while promising to take you on a magical journey of both personal and epic proportions.

Book Description
Crossing the wide realms of Faerûn in search of adventure, the dark elf princess Liriel Baenre and her companion Fyodor find themselves in the barbarian’s homeland of Rashemen. In a land ruled by witches, Liriel must disguise herself lest she spark the people’s hatred of dark elves.
Yet from the deep tunnels of the Underdark, glittering eyes and a mind twisted by malice are watching her every move, preparing for vengeance.
The release of Windwalker brings to a close a series first begun by New York Times bestselling author Elaine Cunningham more than eight years ago. Following the recovers of Daughter of the Drow and Tangled Webs, the first two titles in the series, this all-new novel features cover art by award-winning fantasy artist Todd Lockwood and is the first hardcover release from Cunningham in five years.
Customer Reviews:
Beyond bad.......2007-04-01
This is the least satisfying conclusion of a trilogy I have ever read. Poorly written with a jumbled plot that was impossible to follow. New characters randomly introduced far too often and not enough development of the characters that I cared about. Many of the plot developments were completely unnecessary and very unsatisfying. I wish I hadn't read this book so that I could have imagined a more satisfying conclusion to the tale.
Main characters not in it as much..........2006-09-10
About 3/4 of the way through this book, I realized that the two main characters had barely been in it! Some new faces and old foes (plus a link to the War of the Spider Queen series) almost take the main stage. While it didn't feel like the stories of the secondary characters were tacked on, if the book had just featured Liriel and Fyodor it would have been much, much shorter. It wasn't bad, but as far as it being the last book in a trilogy, I would've expect more.
Disappointing, to say the least.......2006-09-08
I wasn't overly disappointed in the plot or the characters, despite their inconsistency. It was the writing. This book reads like it was written in about a week. It was rushed, jumbled, and had no depth.
The main story really could have been told in about 150-200 pages. The rest seemed like it was just unnecessary, uninteresting filler. Too many pages were devoted to secondary characters doing nothing that advanced the story, or even helped develop the character or plot. It's as if it was all written on the fly with no forethought or, even worse, afterthought. It reads like it went right from rough draft to release. I really expected more from Elaine Cunningham.
This is a 3 of 3 book so people will naturally buy it, but don't expect to see the effort put forth you saw in book 1.
If you're a big Liriel fan go get it and get your fix. If you're looking for the layers and intrigue of a good drow book, move on. You're going to be sorely disappointed.
Finally, Book 3!.......2006-07-20
Not as strong as the first two books, but if you already bought the first two, might as well complete the series and buy book 3! Don't get me wrong, it isn't terrible!! But do know that if you don't get it, you'll miss out on the surprise ending that you never saw coming, or at least I didn't see it coming!! You won't be disappointed.
Fitting conclusion to Starligth & Shadows.......2006-03-23
When I read the other reviews about this book, I realize that the ratings cover the whole range from one to five stars. I also realize why this is the case... But starting at the beginning:
I liked Windwalker very much. It took me some time to get my hands on the paperback version, so my reading of the first two parts was a few years back and I started out rereading Tangled Webs to get into the story again. And Mrs Cunningham picked up exactly where she left off, with fast paced action and the characters I've so grown to like, adding two more characters (Sharlarra and Thorn) who might merit novels of their own.
I also enjoyed the part of the story spent on examining the relationship between Liriel and her former patron godess Lolth. I think no other realms author has so far gone into this much detail about a priestess forsaking her godess.
The far reaching effects Liriel's carving of the rune had on all the drow were an interesting twist, though I'd have liked it even better if there had been some explanation as to why the change was so far reaching. Also I'd expect such a change to be taken up in other novels as well, though so far I haven't noticed anything in other novels (I haven't read the War of the Spider Queen series yet, though...)
I can see why some might be put off by the book though:
The ending is a bit unusual, both in the swiftness of the final battle and in the death of a main character. For my part, I found it refreshing to read a final battle where there isn't a Phyrrus victory at the end, but a clear and decisive one. Many FR authors seem to go on the basis, that if there haven't been dozens (or hundreds - depending on the scope of the novel) deaths, the enemies were not threatening enough. Also the death of Fyodor, though sad, was somehow fitting and a good conclusion to the series. Having recently read Hand of Fire - one of the worst FR-novels in my opinion - Windwalker was a breath of fresh air.
I didn't miss the final showdown between Liriel and Shakti. The way it went added a surprising twist to Shakti's character and anyway, a spellbattle would have been ridiculous considering that moments before Liriel had no spells left to fling at Gorlist.
All that said, I still have some peeves about this book. For one, the book could have done without some of the cameos Qilué, Laeral, Sylune and Khelben were part of the story, but putting in Dove, Alustriel and the other seven was in no way related to the story.
Even Danilo - much as I like him and enjoyed Sahrlarra's fight with his sword - didn't add much to the story.
Someone mentioned the misspellings of some canon names before (Laerel instead of Laeral). Suchlike simply should not happen!
Finally I think the death of Quilué's lover is a bit of a retcon, as I think he was alive at the end of DotD.
I'm looking forward to the next novel by Mrs Cunningham, though I strongly suspect it won't be about Liriel...
Book Description
A novel about obsession that makes for obsessive reading.
All Owen Patterson wants is a normal life, a happy marriage, and a stable family. But following the brutal and random murder of his brother-in-law, that dream is shattered. A year later, his wife is still in mourning and his in-laws won't talk about anything but their dead son.
The murderer, Henry Joseph Raven, has been put in prison, but as far as Owen is concerned, prison isn't punishment enough. He embarks on a quest to "balance the scales of justice," writing letters to Henry Raven under the pseudonym Lily Hazelton. His plan: to seduce the murderer, make him fall in love with his fictional correspondent, and then break his heart.
From one letter to the next, Lily Hazelton develops into a curious amalgam of details from Owen's imagination, snatches of his difficult childhood, and memories of his cousin Eileen, a suicide who was his first true love. Not entirely in control of his own creation, Owen dives headfirst into the correspondence, only to find himself caught in the trap he's set for Henry Raven.
Bringing together an epistolary game of cat and mouse with the harrowing record of one man's psychological collapse, The Interloper is a compelling and original debut from a bold new writer.
Customer Reviews:
Wow! What a page turner!.......2007-08-23
This is probably the best first novel to hit the book stores since Brett Easton Ellis's "Less Than Zero" in 1985. It's a bona fide page turner.
The cover blurb sets the reader up to expect a revenge novel: The protagonist is out to avenge his brother-in-law's senseless murder, a loss that is destroying two families. Antoine Wilson's story takes the form of a modern epistolary novel--one that depends on letters to set out the plot. But book has much more in store. There are some nice plot twists that make the book a compelling "read". While the writing style isn't immortal literature, the simple, direct narrative keeps bumping along with a few thigh-slapping jokes thrown in.
There are a few lapses of editing, and some of the voices don't seem quite right (hard boiled criminals aren't usually literary types). However, these are minor glitches in a great first novel.
This is an excellent "beach book" or a way to happily "kill" a trans-continental flight.
3 1/2 Stars: Revenge.......2007-07-26
The basic premise of Antoine Wilson's "The Interloper" is fascinating: how far would you go, what would you do in order to enact, set in motion a plot to avenge a wrong done to your family? What does an "Eye for an Eye" really mean in 2007?
Owen marries Patty and on their honeymoon they learn that Patty's brother CJ is murdered; sending Patty and her family into a tailspin: totally natural. Early on this novel, CJ's father, Calvin Sr, speaking about the incarcerated murderer says: "I'd kill him with my bare hands if I got the chance. But I won't get the chance. I don't want the chance usually."
Owen, as the "outsider" : both a new part of the Stocking family and yet apart from it...attached to it only by his marriage to Patty serves as the interloper of the title: someone who didn't know the murdered brother CJ yet must suffer and empathize with his in laws and with his new wife specifically: "We are all hobbled together. Odds and ends. Bric-a-brac. CJ is: a buried body, Stocking talk, newspapers, videos and pictures, Ravens (the murderer) account, a diary. I can't put him back together. I can't put myself back together. The pieces are me but not mine."
And so Owen hatches a plan to avenge CJ's murder. A plan to make the murderer, Raven pay even more than the currency of time and freedom that has been placed on him by the court: "The plan unfolded with crystal clarity in my mind...Raven would suffer...I resolved right then not to tell Patty about my plan until I reaped its fruits. All my duplicity would turn out for the best, like planning a surprise party. This was the only way I could un-poison the soil, restore a sense of justice and balance out our world, bring the old Patty back."
Robert Burns said it best: "The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry."
Antoine Wilson is a talented writer and this, being his first novel is a good read but not a great read or a great novel. The third act falls apart in that Wilson seems to lose interest in his story as the denouement is jarring and out of character with the rest of the book.
With that said there are many passages here that take your breath away with the knowing clarity of its observations: "The word Ghost should be like the word Pants--it should never be singular. No one leaves behind one ghost. Everyone who dies leaves behind at least as many ghosts as people they knew."
couldn't put it down.......2007-07-20
I read about Chuck Palahniuk's books something like: "they're written for people who don't like to read." In The Interloper Wilson's style is apparent, but not at the expense of the story which kept me from putting the book down. If you like Palahniuk or T.C. Boyle, you'll like The Interloper. A really exciting, interesting, unassuming read.
Roadmap of a journey to obsession.......2007-07-03
From The Interloper by Antoine Wilson:
"The word ghost should be like the word pants - it should never be singular. No one leaves behind one ghost. Everyone who dies leaves behind at least as many ghosts as people they knew."
The Interloper was an impromptu read for me. I didn't intend to read it right now, with all the piles of review books accumulating around me like ants at a summer picnic. If my hand hadn't happened to touch this particular book, while I was pawing through a bag of books, who knows when I'd have gotten to it. I didn't get a review copy of it, so there was no sense of true urgency, but I had an idea it had been lauded as a really good read. And far be it from me not to be influenced by that.
So I picked it up, and read the first couple of pages. Then I read a few more pages, then I said "Hell with it. I'm taking this one to my reading lair..." And the rest is history. It was as close to unputdownable as it gets.
The main character, Owen Patterson, is a man whose worsening mental state pulled me in and wouldn't let go. As his obsession grew so did mine, and before I knew it there was no escaping until I knew how all this resolved itself.
What would the average man do if his wife felt tortured by the knowledge her brother's murderer wasn't paying all that stiff a price for his crime, if the pain and sadness of it had turned her into a person he no longer recognized, and he felt himself powerless to help?
The average man may not be willing to go to the lengths Owen Patterson did, starting up a correspondence with the killer, posing as a beautiful young woman, trying to win his heart and then break it, just as his wife's heart had been broken. The further Owen gets into his plan, the more his sanity takes a dive, plunging him into obsession. The need for revenge becomes so overwhelming he puts everything on the line, risking his job and his relationship with his wife, hoping against hope that once all is said and done he'll be able to say he'd maybe not righted the wrong, but that he'd at least balanced it out a bit. And his wife, he reasoned, would feel better knowing he'd loved her enough to do that for her, and maybe, just maybe, she'd snap back to herself again, and everything between them would be as great as it had been before her brother was senselessly and brutally murdered. That's a lot of maybes, but when maybe is all you have you may just take a chance and grasp at anything.
"Every moment contains within it the seeds of its own destruction."
The Interloper's a fascinating read, especially if you love books that delve into the darker side of the psyche, like I do. The prose is beautiful, and the plot grabs you by the throat. A fine, fine book.
Great neo-noir.......2007-06-25
This is a near-perfect first novel. It's structured like a classic noir, as a flashback onto the events that have landed the narrator in the circumstances he finds himself at the time he begins to write (I won't spoil it and tell you what those circumstances are). That character is very interesting and intriguing -- highly intelligent but clearly flawed. We see his faults and bizarre behavior, but still want things to work out for him. Really, this is a darkly fun, funny book, and a quick read.

What you can't see CAN hurt you.......2007-09-24
Boy of boy does Alan Dean Foster knows how to creepy ? He still manages to include humor and even some laugh-out-loud moments. Narrators can make or break an audiobook. Fortunately Ben Browder has the range and the perception to take Mr. Foster's book and make it jump off the page. After hearing this book on CD my question is when is somebody going to make this into a movie ?
A "movie" on a CD with a cast of characters.......2006-03-07
This is the first audio book I've ever bought or listened to and I thought I would be bored out of my mind listening to it. I bought it because the multi-talented Ben Browder (Farscape, Stargate SG-1, Party of Five) was the "narrator". I used quotes around narrator because Ben gives his all in his acting out of this novel. At times I thought that there were other "narrators" besides Ben doing the dialog between the characters. I kept forgetting that only Ben was doing the narrating. That's how good he is at this. This is more than reading or narration, it's acting. Not only was I NOT bored, but I was so caught up in Ben's performance that I listened to the whole 8 discs in one sitting.
As far as the quality of the story goes, I'll just say that it's just as good as any other throwaway novel you'll find these days by the likes of King, Turow, and other authors whose names slip my mind because their stuff is so unmemorable. It's a light story with some preaching about the evils of nuclear weapons, a damsel in distress, a reluctant nerd-hero who kind of saves the day with some help from the damsel in distress and some strange shadowy organization, science fiction and fantasy.
If you like Ben Browder then I highly recommend this audio book.
A paycheck-level book for Mr. Foster, nothing special........2005-06-09
Interlopers is to date the worst Alan Dean Foster novel I've read. As he is a consistently good author, that puts it in the middle of the road as far as pulp fiction goes, neither time-wastingly bad nor anything to write home about. An author needs to put out books to pay the bills and keep the family fed, and I received the strong impression that Interlopers was penned to keep food on the table rather than a labor of love. While it has an interesting premise, the 'tentacly boogeymen infest humans and spread evil' heart of the story, it falls apart in the execution.
The story kicks off with a terribly improbable opening, involving the drinking of a concoction full of poisons on the say-so of an ancient tablet. It then follows up with ample deus ex machinae when characters are introduced who are unflappable, never mistaken, and always capable. Any tension that existed before the appearance of these characters immediately vaporizes; a giant polka-dotted cyclops monster that shoots lightning bolts from its eye could appear in the middle of the street, and doubtless they would calmly and cooly dispatch it. At the same time the antagonists, who started off with a great, creepy sort of unified front against the main character, stop being either creepy or clever, and just sort of sit back and wait to be defeated.
Add to that a few logical questions (ala 'If these things exist in a significant percent of the rocks and wood and other plants of the world, why isn't everyone full of them all the time?') and you wind up with a novel that, while very promising, needed a lot more finishing to live up to its concept.
Alan Dean Foster and Ben Browder have a hit.......2005-03-15
Very clever to take a novel that needed either a whole cast of people to narrate or one outstanding actor. Ben Browder proves himself to be able to leap tall metaphors in a single bound. He takes you around the world and makes you feel like you are going through these incredible experiences with the characters. Ben leaves you wanting to hear and see more of this extraordinary world that Alan Dean Foster has created. By all means enjoy this in audio. Hope some clever producer picks up both book and actor and gives us a something truly wonderful to watch on the big screen.
HP Lovecraft meets Indiana Jones.......2005-02-09
Ben Browder is an outstanding in the way he makes this book come alive. His acting combined with Alan Dean Foster's story craft make an unbeatable combination. I won't give away as much as I've seen in other reviews of the story but I will say the story spans 3 continents, with places as far away as you can get on planet earth...and beyond. With all of that it doesn't lose the very human story that is at the heart of the why the protagonist is willing to give up everything to protect the one he loves. Plus there are the nifty audio and visual excursions that Ben Browder delivers. Not every boy from Tennessee can do a convincing Aboriginal accent !!

Dangerous Interloper by Penny Jordan (Large Print Harlequin Hardcover).......2006-06-09
Description from the book back cover:
Miranda Shepherd couldn't remember the last time a man had made such an intense physical impact on her. It was ridiculous of her to feel like a giddy teenager when she was a mature career woman of twenty-eight. In any case it wasn't possible to bump into a total stranger, however attractive, and feel the world fall apart. But that was exactly what had happened with Ben Frobisher. How embarassing it would be if he discovered her secret! Because Ben showed no signs of wanting anything more than friendship. What was she to do?

Praise for Clown Ministry handbook.......2000-07-17
Arguably, The book on clown ministry. An excellent resource on gospel clowning (it's not focusing intently on creating make-up or other "clown" activities, but rather how the clown becomes a gospel clown). An excellent resource with several skits as well as interviews with several gospel clowns across the country.
Excellent resource for people interested in Clown Ministry.......1997-07-12
This book begins with the history of Christian clowning, taking you back to the Roman Empire, then brings you forward to today. Interviews and profiles with Floyd Shaffer and other "greats". Several interesting and useful skits in the end. A great investment
