Product Description

THE STAR KINGS 10,000 years from now the universe is divided into stellar kingdoms. John Gordon is torn from his 20th Century humdrum into otherworldly intrigue as he exchanges bodies with Prince Zarth Arn, heir to the Kingdom of Fomalhaut. Shorr Kan, Lord of the Dark Worlds, schemes to kill Zarth Arn and overthrow the alliance of the Star Kings. Gordon reluctantly assumes the role of Zarth Arn to prevent Shorr Kan from throwing the entire universe into interstellar anarchy! ERIC JOHN STARK Forged in the hellish heat of Mercury and tempered on the desert sands of Mars, Eric John Stark battles the forces of evil and tyranny, selling his sword-arm to defend the cause of justice among worlds of sin and decay. STARK AND THE STAR KINGS In their only formal collaboration, Hamilton’s Star Kings and Brackett’s Eric John Stark meet to confront a peril of unending doom. Can Stark persuade the Star Kings to put aside their political games long enough to defeat this threat to the whole universe? For the first time, admirers of both authors can enjoy this long-coming story.

5 out of 5 stars A "must-have" omnibus collection especially recommended for golden age science fiction fans.......2006-01-11

Featuring a handful of black-and-white illustrations by Alex Ebel, Stark and the Star Kings is a science fiction epic anthology set 200,000 years in the future. Written by Edmond Hamilton and Leigh Brackett, two classic science fiction authors who become married in 1946, Stark and the Star Kings features an ordinary 20th century man who is ripped from his humdrum life to exchange bodies with a prince wrapped in a treacherous plot against the Star Kings; Eric John Stark, a larger-than-life mercenary forged in the heat of Mercury and tempered in the desert of Mars; and the only formally collaborated story of Hamilton and Brackett, in which Brackett's Stark meets Hamilton's Star Kings and desperately strives to persuade them to halt their political games long enough to save the universe from doom. A "must-have" omnibus collection especially recommended for golden age science fiction fans.

    Book Description

    Hamilton Stark is a New Hampshire pipe fitter and the sole inhabitant of the house from which he evicted his own mother. He is the villain of five marriages and the father of a daughter so obsessed that she has been writing a book about him for years. Hamilton Stark is a boor, a misanthrope, a handsome man: funny, passionately honest, and a good dancer. The narrator, a middle-aged writer, decides to write about Stark as a hero whose anger and solitude represent passion and wisdom. At the same time that he tells Hamilton Stark's story, he describes the process of writing the novel and the complicated connections between truth and fiction. As Stark slips in and out of focus, maddeningly elusive and fascinatingly complex, this beguiling novel becomes at once a compelling meditation on identity and a thoroughly engaging story of life on the cold edge of New England.

                Book Description

                Over the course of a long and celebrated career, Ray Bradbury has traveled many roads: cruising down country highways that wound through the unseen heart of small-town America; exploring rutted backwoods paths that led to dark and dangerous places; racing at mach-speed along shimmering celestial turnpikes as limitless and exciting as the unbound imagination. The Dean of American storytellers, Bradbury cherishes the worlds he envisions through his windshield. And with incomparable skill and an infectious wonder undiminished by years, he shares what he sees--so that we might also appreciate the view.

                DRIVING BLIND is a stunning new collection of short fiction--the first since the publication of Bradbury's critically acclaimed Quicker Than the Eye. With a steady hand on the wheel, the master once again transports us to remarkable places-- and to warm and achingly familiar destinations of the heart, revealed as we've never seen them before in the brilliance of day or gloom of night. Here are unforgettable excursions to the fantastic, glorious grand tours through time and memory-- interspersed with strange, unexpected side trips to the disturbing and eerie--where surprises are waiting around every curve and just beyond each mile marker.

                These are new roads we have never ridden before--sprawling interstates and lush, twisting rural routes fraught with dangers and delights of all manner, shape and substance. With Ray Bradbury in the driver's seat, the journey promises to be a memorable one. Come along and enjoy the ride.

                4 out of 5 stars Very Nice!! Pleasurable and witty........2006-02-03

                This book was a compilation of short stories by Ray Bradbury. Unlike most of Bradbury's other books, this one is not based in the future. If I were to make a guess of the time frame of the book in the mid 1940's. I would say that they were put in the same book because they were all focused on the art of deception. One of the better stories in the book was "Hello, I Must Be Going". It is about one of two men, one of whom is a friend of the other. The "other" was/ is a man who is actually dead! He talks to his friend over a long series of drinks, and neither of them can make sense of either of them. The dead man, Henry, is telling his friend, Steve, that he has been very sad, of late, because his poor wife is no longer weeping for him. It would seem as if he did not exist. As Henry got up to leave Steve started to weep. This made Henry feel much better. Henry fell a little happier with himself because at least someone wept for him. The wit an the fun of the book makes it very pleasurable to read. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to be slightly baffled, yet walk away with a smile on their faces. It is very cleverly crafted; the reader cannot have a complete understanding of it. But nonetheless, it gives the reader enough to get the jokes and find out what is happening. In a sense, the book is almost in command of the reader.

                4 out of 5 stars Excellent Author; Overated Book!.......2000-05-02

                I bought this book expecting stories on par with those found in The Illustrated Man, and R is for Rocket, boy was I wrong! Now don't misunderstand me these stories weren't that bad its just that after reading some of Bradbury's best stories, these just don't quite leave the same impression on me as The Long Rain, and the Outsiders. Still this was a good book to help fill my Bradbury collection. And so, here's my recommendation to Mr and Mrs. John Q. Taxpayer, buy this book if you love Bradbury, if not look elsewhere, and buy The Illustrated Man instead! Peace.

                Reading Ray Bradbury is like going through a door into a nostalgic, odd America that never existed, a universe of strange possibility that brings to mind the haunting memories of childhood. The short stories in Driving Blind are vintage Bradbury, with a pleasant smattering of ideas: dark fantasy, boyhood sense of wonder, Twilight Zone-esque twist. These 21 stories (4 are reprints) were inspired by a dream Bradbury had in which his muse, blindfolded, drove him to destinations unknown. We're glad he went along for the ride. Spare word portraits will transport you to a world of scratchy phonograph records and cuckoo clocks, evil garbage disposals and Mexican border-town circuses. Bradbury fans will enjoy revisiting the worlds of his imagination, while those new to the master will find themselves in need of another shot of Bradbury... quick. --Therese Littleton

                5 out of 5 stars Short. Wonderful........2007-04-15

                Ray Bradbury is the master of the short story, and these 21 miniatures -- "short shorts" -- are among his best. Most are no more than a page or two in length. They get in, deliver, and finish with the implications and the thinking about it afterwards left up to the reader. It is a partnership, with the reader filling in the missing bits which are implied but never expressed by the author. So while the stories themselves are easy enough to skim through in short order, you'll spend days afterward realizing the implications of what you've read. I like it when an author involves the reader like that.

                4 out of 5 stars Enjoyable.......2003-05-10

                Ray Bradbury is like your favorite uncle. He is full of wonderous stories that as a kid, you never get tired of hearing. Once again he puts together a wonderfull set of stories. I have rated this book 4 stars although it is actually 4 1/2 stars. Not a miss among the entire group. My only gripe with the book is that he has only one science fiction story and calling that one is a stretch. He writes about a small circus who the ticket taker is also the star and chief cook and bottle washer and how the picked on kid in school grows up to be important. My two favorite stories are "Driving Blind" about a mysterious man wearing a sack over his head and "Night Train to Babylon" about men on a train intent on losing their money on a rigged game of three card montey. It is amazing that he can turn out the quality of work he has after more than fifty years. This set of stories is less somber than some of his other short story collections and can actually be compared to "Dandelion Wine" in its feeling. Bradbury is still celebrating life and I hope he does for another fifty years. This book is fun and well worth the reading.

                2 out of 5 stars Why was there no sci-fi?.......2002-06-08

                This is a book of short stories written by Ray Bradbury. I picked it because I have read some of his other work such as Farheinhiet 451 and the Martian Chronicles. I enjoyed these thoroughly, and when i picked up this book I was expecting stories like these, science fiction. The problem is that they weren't science fiction I think their was either 2 or 3; normally I would tell you an exact number but on 2 of them I couldn't tell what genre they were and they just confused me.
                The 1st story, "Night Train to Babylon" is about 3 card monte and this former boy magician. Then they through the boy magician out of the train for some reason. I think this was science fiction but I'm not sure and the middle makes no sense. The 2nd story also makes no sense and i can't even report on it. The 3rd one is of a ghost who is upset that his wife has stopped mourning. It was one of the better stories. The 4th one is a horrible story. It is of incest and underage cousins making out while their uncle is dying. A later story is of an adult that looks through yearbooks from many different years and different places and finds out that people are being reused. People have exactly identical twins from different places and years. Great beginning worst ending in the book. Last story I will review was called, "Mr. Pale" great story. It is in the style of the Martian Chronicles. It is of how the humans have colonized Mars and for some reason the death total on Mars is 0%, and the reason why is that death, a.k.a. Mr Pale, can only be in one place at a time. Great story and it doesn't let up in the ending.

                    3 out of 5 stars Good story, good characters, cop-out ending.......1999-10-13

                    I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Benstead caught the lives of his characters and put them on the page in full detail. The story compelled me to read on, but when I got to the end, his conclusion disappointed me. I don't want to spoil the ending by revealing it, but suffice it to say that he identified so strongly with his lead character that he didn't chose the most satisfying conclusion.

                              I was amazed at the super rich colors and terrific drawings done on heavy weight supergloss paper. I hope all comics look like this in the future. A multilayered treatise reminiscent of early Stan Lee. Bottom line: my senses were titillated; yet my morals were not offended.

                              The Invisible Dirty Old Man was a scream. It's definitely good for a lot of laughs -- and almost as many trips to the bathroom. I'm getting in line for the movie Now!

                              Book Description

                              If you own a convection oven, but don’t really know how to use it, this book is for you.

                              Beatrice Ojakangas, an authority on convection cooking and author of more than two dozen previous cookbooks, explains how to use your convection oven to achieve perfect results in dramatically less time than with a conventional oven. You will learn:

                              *How to cook a whole meal in your oven–from meat to side dishes to dessert–all at the same time

                              *How to cook multiple batches of cookies, cakes, and pies on three or even four oven shelves

                              *How to roast and bake in a third less time than in a conventional oven while achieving even better results

                              *How to calculate the correct temperature and timing for convection cooking if you are using a standard recipe

                              And here are more than 150 great recipes for snacks and appetizers; pizza and foccacia; soups; roast beef, lamb, pork and poultry; savory pies and tarts; casseroles and pasta; vegetables; yeast breads and quick breads; cakes, cookies, pies, and pastries; and much, much more. Try Melted Onion Tart with Parmigiano-Reggiano, Mexican Vegetable Tortilla Soup, Tandoori Salmon with Cucumber Sauce, Asian Spiced Roast Whole Chicken, and Cocoa Cake with Easy Buttercream Frosting, among so many imaginative and easy dishes.

                              By circulating hot air around food, convection ovens cook and brown food much more quickly and at a lower temperature than conventional ovens, while retaining food’s natural juiciness and flavor. With this book you will be able to save significant amounts of time and effort while turning out delicious dishes for everyday meals and easy entertaining.

                              3 out of 5 stars The text is printed in BLUE.......2007-10-05

                              The book is very helpful, especially for those new to convection cooking, but unfortunately the main text is printed in blue ink and not a particularly dark blue. This makes it much more difficult to read than black ink, especially for older eyes. I found that I had to really concentrate on the reading rather than on the content.

                              1 out of 5 stars waste of money.......2007-05-08

                              We have a new (optionally) convection oven. The instruction manual and the manufacture's web site were not clear on when to use the convection oven or not. Although this book claimed to answer every question about convection cooking it kept on referring the reader to the instruction manual for the oven.
                              The book is, as far as I'm concerned, a candiddate for recycling

                              4 out of 5 stars Great Book!.......2007-04-03

                              Just bought my first convection oven and was looking for a good guide with some recipes. I love the info at the beginning of each chapter covering the basic how-to's for different food groups. I'm a senior with poor eyesight so would have preferred easier to read print. All in all, a great book.

                              5 out of 5 stars an outstanding contribution to anyone's cookbook collection.......2007-03-23

                              I want to heartily recommend this cookbook to anyone even remotely thinking about buying it. I know food all too well, being a good cook, an even better eater, and having previously been in the food business myself. Beatrice is clearly an outstanding chef, and while I bought this only because I had a new convection oven whose usefulness I really wanted to maximize, her recipes are really top notch. I especially recommend the Lasagna, which has a great and easy pasta sauce recipe in it which has changed forever the way I approach this staple. The lasagna is to die for and my previous recipe was no slouch either, so trust me - this is a must - though I use fresh and not frozen spinach in mine. The banana nut bread is also just great. She has many little tricks, tips, ideas about cooking. Get it - it's not expensive, and you won't be sorry.

                              5 out of 5 stars Love It!!.......2007-01-17

                              When I got my new Convection ovens, I noticed I was still cooking the Conventional way. This cookbook not only has good recipes, but great guidlines so I can start to make my own favorite recipes in the convection oven.
