Like the movie, great production values.......2006-08-10
Its large format, crisp color reproduction, and amazing depth of detail make this one of the best 2001 books available. In fact, I had to own just one, this would be it.
In this age of computer generated imagery, it's fascinating to read in detail how 2001 pulled off its brilliant and never-dated space visuals with entirely manual processes. Seeing the incredibly huge and complex film sets, the detailed models and animations, and innovative camera techniques used give me a new appreciation for the magnitude of the film's greatness.
What is largely missing from this book is insight into Kubrick's source ideas and meaning for 2001. It's probably too much to ask for that in addition to the books fantastic production story.
Do You Like The Future?.......2005-10-09
This brilliant book's visuals alone make it worth adding to your collection of film books. Of course, Kubrick fans need it the most.
But what the book also speaks to, beyond Kubrick's compulsive fascination with technical accuracy in film, is how the effort in making this movie addressed our ambitions and fascinations in the 1960s. In a time where old social conventions were breaking down, right and left, 2001 spoke to a new optimism created by space exploration and its seemingly limitless potential.
"Capturing the imagination." Good movies achieve that goal, don't they? In this case, a fanatical dedication to research, and to placing on film the most accurate and, in a weird way, understated views of a human future in space, creating something really new in moviegoing experience.
In its time, that effort became quickly subsumed by two divergent audiences: people who wanted to enhance their drug experiences with visuals, and people who wanted to be in space. Of course, these audiences made the movie very, very successful.
Today, we have left this movie's technical accomplishments in the dust. We can depict space travel and its related phenomena (like weightlessness) in a relatively effortless way. Film special effects pour out, today, in ways not imagined in 1967. You could read this book as a quaint history tract in movemaking technics.
I read it beyond that, though. It spoke to the excitement and optimism with which many of us viewed our future. We ate this stuff up; we could sit through two reels of a spacecraft docking and think the time just flew by...
How do we feel about the future today? It is now highly unfashiomable to label yourself a "futurist" any more. It seems our future is all behind us now.
Thank God these things run in predictable cycles. Collective optimism about our future in space is just around the corner. I hope I live long enough to see and enjoy it...
A behind the scenes once removed.......2005-09-01
I found Piers Bizony's book fascinating and I'm continually amazed at the work this film achieved for its day (and today in many respects). It defined the genre. It's filled with great stills, diagrams, and behind-the-scenes photography of the filmmaking process.
However, if you're looking for a book that gives you an inside peek on the filmmaker and his decision making process for the story (or authentic insight on the story itself), you'll be disappointed. 2001 is a complex storyline with metaphore upon metaphore and the Bizony never seems to achieve a 'true' account by Kubrick on the film's meaning. It's more guessing, speculation, and hypothesis that add to the voices weighing in regarding this important film. I suppose in some respects, it adds the mystery and weight of story... and will remain that way with the passing of Kubrick in 2000.
A must -have book for 2001 fans.......2005-08-02
A terrific book, full of spectacular photos and diagrams,
and including an entertaining and informative text. First class!
Highly recommended! .......2005-07-13
Very few movies of the late twentieth century stand up to the test of time in the way of 2001: A Space Odyssey. This book tells the inside story of how this ground breaking film was made, and how it changed the outlook of a generation.

Book Description
This Handbook covers Handel's best known public music, the Water Music, written at the outset of his English career, and the Music for the Royal Fireworks, the last and largest of his orchestral creations. The genesis of the two orchestral suites is examined in its political as well as musical context. Practical questions of performance style and interpretation are balanced by an enquiry into Handel's compositional processes, and the relationship of these pieces to his other large-scale orchestral compositions.
Book Description
Two of the most popular Baroque orchestral works in the repertoire appear here in one inexpensive, convenient volume. Full of charm and tremendous variety, Water Music features a colorful blend of concerto and dance suite. Music for the Royal Fireworks is specially noted for its brilliant overture and combination of tunefulness and grandeur.
Book Description
Available for the first time in one inexpensive, reliable volume, here are the full scores of two of the most popular Baroque orchestral works performed today, reprinted from the definitive edition preserving Handel's final arrangements for students, musicians and musicologists.

WHAT MAGES DO FOR A LIVING.......2007-07-26
When I got the MAGE AWAKENING core book, I found it uninspiring. At the core of that feeling was a vagueness about what being a Mage was about. Vampires hunt for blood and amass power, Werewolves fight unruly spirits, but what do Mages do? Go to work, study some spells, go to Consilia once a month? Might as well be the Rotary Club!
Then I picked up GUARDIANS OF THE VEIL, and then I saw that Mages do have a job, a purpose. And that is to protect magic by shielding it from the eyes of Sleepers (who draw in the Abyss through their Disbelief) and unworthy mages (who push the Supernal further away with vulgar spells and Paradox). Sometimes you even have to break a few eggs, and always constant vigilance! GUARDIANS OF THE VEIL was what I needed to shape what I perceived as the formlessness of Mage into something dynamic. I think that GUARDIANS OF THE VEIL will open up new ways of approaching MAGE once you've read it.
GUARDIANS begins with the beginning - Atlantis. The Guardians' account of things is presented as historical fact (which helps the players get into the mindset of factional dogma), and that account is that after the fall of Atlantis magic became more difficult. Paradoxes pushed the supernal away, making the link between mage and the higher realms ever more tenuous. The secret history of the Guardians is spelled out, with a minimum of placing the protagonists at the center of every historical event. The order developed a culture of secrecy, to protect the mysteries of magic from being debased by disbelievers. To accomplish these aims, it is sometimes necessary to subvert even other magical orders.
There is quite a bit of information on finding magical students and thwarting others (the Labyrinth, initiation into the order (the Veils), positions of authority within the order (Cultor and Epopt), and order discipline. Guardian dogma is explained, with different Factions holding to different interpretations and how they relate to other mages. New legacies and rotes are described, as well as specific mudras. Sample items and artifacts are listed, as well as sample NPCs.
Two bits in the book caught my attention as particularly original. The "Masques" are merits bought by a Guardian that allow him to take on a persona, sort of a Platonic form. He plays a part so well that he represents that form, gaining some play modifiers for acting his part. There is one for every combination of virtue and vice (representing abstract perosnality stereotypes). The idea of becoming a mask you wear intrigues me.
Also, this is a secretive, conspiracy minded group. A lot of the ordeals and secrets are explained, but parables are sprinkled throughout the text. They make a point to the wise, but I can't figure out most of them and no explanation is given. I guess I wouldn't think much of an order's secret wisdom if I could get the point right away - very clever in my mind.
GUARDIANS OF THE VEIL is a great book for both protagonists and antagonists. It gives an idea of what mages do with their time and how th mysteries of the ancient world affect mages today.
Piercing the Veil... or do we?.......2006-11-09
The Guardians of the Veil are one of five "Orders" in Mage: the Awakening, representing the social group that a player character can choose freely; by contrast, the "Paths" represent the fundamental direction and 'flavor' of a character's magic, and in the context of the game, is NOT something the character can choose. The brief description in the main rulebook describes an interesting combination of a secret police force and a conspiracy mostly for the sake of conspiracy, and this sourcebook goes a long way toward reconciling those seemingly contradictory aims.
On the one hand, even mortal organizations need to be at least somewhat concerned about double-agents and other corrupting influences within; the notion that Mages retain this need even after Awakening is intriguing, to say the least. On the other, even in the real world, there's nothing quite like the thrill of being a part of something bigger than yourself, but secret. The Guardians use this human impulse to an excellent advantage to further their own doctrine of "not all mortals are worthy of Awakening": those who do not pass certain subtle tests of aptitude and character are shunted through an endless blind alleys of cross-linked conspiracies with no real substance, referred to as the Labrynth; the details of this global web of illusions are mostly left to the Storyteller, but the raw materials for constructing your very own series of false conspiracies are provided.
Another element that I enjoyed was an in-depth discussion of how disguise works as an in-game concept. It goes beyond the popular "rubber mask" transformations of 'normal' espionage fare into what makes a disguise believable, with or without magic. While it is by no means a teaching tool for changing identities along with clothes, it does allow most gamers to understand more interesting in-game details.
Behind a Veil of Secrets and Lies.......2006-06-14
Following White-Wolf's popular "splat book" style, this is the first in a series of books for the new Mage: the Awakening game examining the Orders which modern Mages divide themselves. And what a start! From the first previews I saw, the Guardians of the Veil fascinated me. This book does much to clear up misconceptions on them, and makes them alot more playable.
The Guardians of the Veil are the secret police, spies and assassins of Mage society. This is both true and completely false. As the book goes on to show, the Guardians of the Veil do what must be done to protect magic. Duties that nobody else would take upon themselves. The first chapter explores their history, from taking up the role of the fallen Visus Draconis after the collapse of Atlantis to the Mystery Cults of antiquity and the political (and economic) intrigues of today. It also gives a very interesting look at Guardian influence and flavor in different regions.... The Catholic Church's Opus Dei, Voudon cults in West Africa, media moghuls in the US, Gnostic heresies, Taoist and Buddhist sects in Asia, Shi'ite mystics in the Middle East, Hindu devotees to Shiva and similar groups all serve as cover/initiation for Guardians.
The second chapter is even better, explaining the belief, purpose and structure of the Guardians of the Veil. WHY they do what they do. In this chapter we get information on the Order's laws and objectives, their use of parables and koans, optional systems for gaining Wisdom, titles and duties (based on Status rating), Path roles (with five sample concepts per Path), relations with others, and a whole lot of information on spying, both mundane (the Cold War, cryptography, etc) and supernatural. We also finally get a system for the 49 Masques, archetypal roles that the Guardians of the Veils use in their magic. Each Masque can be bought as a Merit which the Mage can master, gaining particular benefits and drawbacks as a result, as well as providing a supernatural disguise by fulfilling the archetype.
The third chapter gives a very detailed look at Guardian recruitment and indoctrination, through the Gray Veil, the Crimson Veil and finally the Black Veil. We also are presented with information about rank, relations (and relationships) within the Order, information on why the Guardians generally don't recruit from inside intelligence agencies anymore, and a very good look at Labyrinths, the secret societies the Guardians create to attract potential initiates (and to weed out the unworthy). The next chapter looks at the Factions and Legacies of the Guardians. All five factions are given write ups: the Faceless (subtle assassins who supress their ego), the Inheritors (who cover up secrets other Mages aren't meant to see), the Messianics (religious zealots who want to install a righteous leader), the Ordeal Keepers (who perfect their minds and bodies through intense rites) and the Prophets (who gather and collect information) along with a sub-Faction for each of them.
The Legacies presented are pretty interesting too. My favorite are the Eleventh Question, a GotV specific Legacy of genius detectives and investigators (think Sherlock Holmes, Monk or Detective Goren from Law and Order: CI), but we also get the Bearers of the Eternal Voice (Mastigos who are masters at manipulating others through their lies) and the Votaries of the Ordained (Moros who protect people and places of great destiny). Theres also a Left-Handed Legacy, the Austere, a corrupted Legacy that fuses their body with strange Atlantean technology. This leads to the chapter on magic, which explains the mudras and tools used by the Guardians, common applications of magic for spying (and preventing others from spying on you), and the Guardians' rote specialties (Investigation, Stealth, Subterfuge) are all examined, and we are presented with about a dozen pages of new Rotes, along with Artifacts and magically enhanced items.
The book finally closes with a number of sample Guardian of the Veil NPCs the Storyteller can throw into a game as allies, antagonists or whatever. A hand full of them are given names, backgrounds, details and full statistics, while others are simple concepts the Storyteller can elaborate on such as "the assassin", "the conspiracy nut", "the investigative journalist" and "the police negotiator".
All in all, this is a wonderful book, especially if you plan on playing a Guardian of the Veil, or are running a game which features the Order prominently. I'm slightly biased, since the Guardians were already my favorite Order to begin with, but for those who want to understand more about the Mage: the Awakening setting, this is an essential buy. Especially if you have difficulty getting behind the GotV mentality, and tend to portray them as "a bunch of spies and assassins". This book clears up alot of the misconceptions, while adding depth and interest to the most secretive of the Orders.

Great Genre, great read!.......2007-01-13
I don't normally read fiction but the tag line caught my eye...I am a slow reader but I blasted thru this one in just a few days! well written, kept my interest and intertwined all the NDE, spiritual cliches but still very enjoyable. Am looking forward to the next two...if I can only find them!
We're All Connected.......2005-09-30
I really loved this book. It is well-written and cohesive. I couldn't put it down, even when I was crying (most embarrassingly) by my apartment's pool. And then I read it all over again...which means I read it twice in a period of four days.
As I said, I loved this book. It does touch on some heavy themes, but rather than being objectionable, I found that they made the book feel truer-to-life. And the story's spiritual content informs these gritty and horrifying situations, placing them in a completely different light.
Ultimately, this book spoke directly to my heart and left me feeling how connected we all are...something that isn't so easy to believe in a huge, isolating metropolis like Los Angeles. It's one of the better gifts I've ever given myself.
I would prefer to end my review here, since this is an accurate detailing of how I experienced the book. However, if I had never read this book before, I would be very perplexed by the range of reviews on it. What I think it boils down to is this. Some readers are critiquing the religious or spiritual aspects as they read; whereas, others find these same elements inspiring. In other words, I believe that some of the reviewers are reading more with their heads and others are reading more with their hearts. Neither way is wrong, but you probably know which kind of a reader you are and should choose accordingly when weighing whether or not to purchase this book.
New Age meets the Near Death Experience.......2005-08-23
Strong start but an unrealistic finish that disappointed me.
The Near Death Experience (NDE) info was accurate and interesting as put into a novel. However, the second half of the novel, while suspenseful, was deeply unsatisfying to me. The clues on how to "get over" serious trauma with the help of divine guidance just evaporated. I would have liked more insight at the ending; I would have preferred that to high drama.
Parting the Veil lapses into lectures as to what approach one ought to have toward life or life after death. I ended the story with no hope at all for the "winners" in the story, and do not believe things could have proceeded as we were told they would happen (after the story ended).
This author has terrific potential, nevertheless. Some parts of the story were riveting, and very well written. "Please make it more believable and rewrite the last chapters" would be my advice to the author.
Parting the Veil.......2005-02-09
I just finished reading "Parting of the Veil" but it wasn't a good read. I was very disappointed in it. It wasn't worth the time to read the 400 pages and it was SLOW. Thing is, I didn't agree with a big part of it. A guy murders his daughter, wife and a family friend (who had had the out of body experience). The father then committed suicide and the only survivor was his little son. The angel says that they all completed their mission. God sent them to earth to teach the little boy some valuable lessons he will need later in life. (It took 400 pages to say that too.) Anyway, I DON'T AGREE! That abusive father is responsible for his actions. He could have been a loving father but instead he turned on his family and murdered them. I don't think that murdering the family was his mission at all! I think the book review was very misleading. I wonder if the reviewer that recommended the book even read it.
Entertaining and thought provoking.......2004-10-11
I thoroughly enjoyed Jay Davis' book on many levels. It was a great read with sympathetic, well-developed characters and a well-paced story. I couldn't put it down. Moreover, I couldn't stop thinking about the subject afterwards and have continued to seek out other books on the subject, both fiction and non-fiction. If this is truly a trilogy, I wish Jay luck and hope the next books come soon.

Book Description
What if the fabric of our world were stretching or tearing...or getting thinner...and we could step through that veil into another world?
It's been a month since the Misfits -- four friends who like to commiserate -- were catapulted out of their adventures in the land of Welken and back into an ordinary summer in the small town of Skinner, Oregon.
Mysterious reminders of those exciting days begin popping up everywhere. A mountain lion. A sailboat. A children's story. Could Lizbeth, Bennu, Len, and Angie be needed, once again, in Welken? If so, for what purpose?
And things seem different this time. Are little signs of Welken rippling through Skinner? Do the multiplying wonders mean that two worlds are about to collide? Or has Welken been within the Misfits' reach all along, but they just hadn't seen it?
Customer Reviews:
Worse than the first one!.......2007-10-03
I read 'The Welkening' which is the first book in this series, and it was not horrible, but it was far from good.
When I picked up, 'Guardian of the Veil' (please don't ask me why!) I couldn't have been more disappointed. I truly don't know if I've ever read a book that I liked less than this. I read it only because I had read the first book. Once I had started reading, I wanted to stop. Over and over I wished the story would just END! I didn't stop reading because I'm just not good at quitting.
Once again, the dialogue is horrendous. The teenagers are not believable. I know it's fiction, but a good fictional story will have characters you can relate to, this story just doesn't. Problems arise in the book that are believable, but they are handled much too easily. Real-life just doesn't work that way.
'Three-Dimensional Tale'? Please stop. It's not good.
Welken is back.......2007-09-26
Lisbeth Neferti, her brother, Bennu, their friends Angie, and her brother Len, live in Skinner Oregon. Known as the Misfits, they have the ability to make magical trips to Welken. (see book one, The Welkening) Lisbeth is having nightmares that are so real and so horrible they leave her reeling with despair. Suddenly strange things begin to happen and the four are called back behind the veil. They love Welken, and have looked foward to going back, but instead of the peace and happiness they expect, they find Piers is in trouble and needs their help.
Guardian of the Veil has teenage protagonists, but it has a twisted plot, and a sophisticated writing style that will appeal to adults. A rich, multi-layered story that forces the characters to face their own shortcomiongs and grow from the experience. Fans of The Welkening will love Guardian of the Veil.
Fascinating Read.......2007-09-17
Guardian of the Veil is a delightful book - well written, engaging, thought provoking. The characters are wonderful and the language beautifully descriptive. It is a page turner and leaves one thinking about the various themes well into the night.
The characters make GUARDIAN OF THE VEIL very special.......2007-08-12
In Skinner, Oregon live four teenagers Angie, Lizbeth, Bennu, and Len; they don't fit in and are proud of the fact. In their neighborhood the veil between their world and Welken is so thin that they are able to travel there when summoned. Became part of Welken when they willimng helped defeat the evil one Morphane. While there they are able to change into animal shapes, Lizbeth an ox, Angie an angel, Len a falcon and Bennu a falcon Their work there was given the blessing of Solion the being who is everything.
Now they are called back again but they don't know what there mission is and they can only transform partially into animal shapes. The young ladies get separated from their male peers leading to separate adventures. The females learn that Mary and her Cutters want to take over Deedy Swamp and surrounding areas; while Len and Bennu learn that Fetagar and Tremlings want to do the same thing. Now the Misfits have to figure out how to stop them and to do that they have to figure out four cryptic lines that are spoken to them over a period of time.
The characters make GUARDIAN OF THE VEIL very special. The teens are youths with problems like a grandmother who has Alzheimer's and a mother who is an alcoholic but they succeed in not allowing their personal issues to affect their responsibilities. In fact, the problems help make them stronger warriors and the battles help them deal better with their family issues. Readers will care about them and hope they succeed in all their endeavors.
