"These Wall Street money-sharks are just as foreign to the real America as were the despots who ruled the land before the revolution of 1776. They are just as foreign as were the traffickers in human flesh and blood—the slave owners—whose power was broken by the Civil War—the blessed second American revolution. These imperialist rulers of America are the worst enemies of the American people.“American democracy, under their rule, is slipping away. The fear that oppressed Mark Twain, the fear that America would lose its democracy, is steadily becoming a reality. The Taft-Hartley Law is but the most recent instance of this ominous trend. The divine right of kings has reappeared in America—disguised as the divine right of judges to issue injunctions and levy fines against labor organizations.”—James P. Cannon, “The Two Americas,” 1948, in ‘Notebook of an Agitator: From the Wobblies to the Fight against the Korean War and McCarthyism (paperback)I have used a quote by Cannon, a founder of the American Communist Party, and later Trotsky’s closest collaborator in the US, not only because he’s one of my heroes, but also to be somewhat ornery, since Ron Powers misquotes Trotsky (not that it’s essential to his book). Powers writes: “’You may not be interested in war,’ as Leon Trotsky later famously remarked, ‘but war is interested in you.’” This “famous quotation” is similar to a remark that Trotsky made about dialectics in ‘In Defense of Marxism,’ in my opinion one of his most important books, but not one that I would recommend for people who don’t already know much about Marxism. (People interested in literature would likely be interested in a wonderful collection of Trotsky’s writings on it; Art and Revolution: Writings on Literature, Politics, and Culture).A few years ago, I interrupted my usual nonfiction reading to reread the ‘Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,’ or perhaps I was really reading it for the first time, since as a kid I had a boxed set with it and Tom Sawyer, and for all I remember it might have been edited for children. Some think it the greatest American novel, and some think it should be banned because of all the use of the “N word.” I’m against banning books, or censoring them, and the copy I borrowed from the library was intended for high school students and had a good introduction that I thought dealt with that question well, in historical perspective, which is essential for anything to make sense. But we live in a country where “political correctness” has gone mad, with accusations of “cultural appropriation,” as if all culture, especially art doesn’t involve appropriation. Long Live Huck!Twain was more than just a writer and lecturer; he was a personality. He knew everyone who was anyone but wrote mostly about people who weren’t. He made American vernacular acceptable, even encouraged it, and he made everyone laugh as a writer and performer.Twain’s life spanned a period of enormous political and economic change, from slavery through the Civil War, Radical Reconstruction and its downfall, and the development of monopoly capitalism, also known as imperialism. He died between the 1905 “dress rehearsal” of, and the victorious 1917 Russian Revolution. He tended to side with the oppressed, although not consistently. Twain had the right intentions in most of his political pronouncements, but he thought the US was fighting Spain in order to free Cuba. They grabbed the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, as well as control over Cuba in the process. Puerto Rico is still a colony, and the US still illegally occupies part of Cuba, where in order to show their superior “human rights” record, they tortured alleged terrorists. And to punish Cuba for finally breaking free of US imposed governments, the US is still trying to starve them out.Twain did see his error and stated, “I am opposed to having the eagle put its talons on any other land.” He joined the bourgeois Anti-Imperialist League, but as Lenin was to show (Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism: A Popular Outline), imperialism was a stage of capitalism, still the present stage, not a mere policy.Twain’s essay written against anti-Semitism showed he didn’t understand what it is; but a lot of people still don’t get it, 70 years after the Holocaust!Controversial political essays--anti-imperialist, antiwar, and antiracist--made up much of his writings in his last years, but many magazines refused them; some weren’t published until many years after his death. Many of his writings on religion he made no attempt to publish.He had friends in the capitalist class, and for much of his life was trying to get rich. Like his hero and friend U.S. Grant, he was a lousy businessman and would have had more money if he hadn’t tried to be one. He was taken in by swindlers, and by people who just couldn’t deliver what they promised.Most of the time, I couldn’t put this book down, but on occasion it got a bit boring and I couldn’t wait to put it down. Still, I highly recommend it; you just might want to turn to a second book on occasion.I recently read Ron Chernow’s Grant, another book that is useful for understanding this period. I also recommend some Marxist works: Americas Revolutionary Heritage and Racism, Revolution, Reaction, 1861-1877: The Rise and Fall of Radical Reconstruction (despite the unkind judgement on Thomas Wentworth Higginson, based on one letter he wrote in old age). And for a view of what the American working class was becoming in the period following the Second American Revolution, I suggest The Great Labor Uprising of 1877 and Autobiographies of the Haymarket Martyrs.Readers of this book may also be interested in Revolution and the 20th Century Novel.(The Kindle edition is somewhat worse than usual, a lot of hyphens showing up that should have been discretionary hyphens to help breaking words in formatted text).

Mark Twain had an incredible memory for dialogue and dialects. He would say an unfamiliar dialect until he got it right and then write it down phonetically. He would then have the appropriate characters use that dialect as the author’s voice for making points that brought to light the reality of situations to which most people were blind. As Powers indicates, this changed American literature forever. It gave the potential author points of view by which to look at human life that the “normal” perspective could not understand and opened up worlds that were unknown or not considered important before Twain. Combined with a brilliant ability to write dialogue, Twain showed truths about human life that changed everything in American literature.But this ability of a true genius was embedded in a deeply flawed and ambiguous person, a person who only partially overcame some deep prejudices, often showed uncaring irrational cruelty to friends and family, and frequently acted in self-centered and narcissistic ways. Powers does an excellent job of showing both the genius and the flaws. Powers’ own writing is clear with smooth transitions and well-organized chapters and paragraphs. Though a long book, it is easy to follow with chapter titles followed by the months or years covered in the chapter. Multiple double-spaced breaks in each chapter allow the reader to stop at a break point and come back with no problem. Powers adds periodically a touch of humor in the story analogous to what Twain would have done. It is usually a sentence or a phrase, sometimes just a word. For example, he has Twain “absquatulate” to the West before his ragtag group of Confederate volunteers at the beginning of the war could be attacked by, of all people, a fairly ragtag team of Union soldiers led by a new leader, Ulysses S. Grant. “Absquatulate” is exactly the kind of 25 cent word, a bit strange sounding, that Twain would insert into his work at times. I found such bits of irony or mimicry of Twain appropriate and a helpful addition to the flow of the narrative.Powers lays out the best and worst of this American original. This is a terrific biography that keeps the reader’s attention from Sam Clemons’ birth to Mark Twain’s death.

Loved this book, after visiting his boyhood home in Hannibal, Missouri. Twain was a complicated man, with some negative characteristics that dwarf his positives. Those who don't like this biography are probably folks who idealize Clemens based on his literature. His relationship to his family and children; his lack of discipline when it came to investments; the hard side of his personality toward other celebrities who he felt challenged his primacy in the last half of the 19th century: these are all instructive facets of a very complicated man. Powers paints Clemens warts and all.My favorite genre is biography, especially biographies that place the reader into the context of the times. Powers achieves that. It is hard to imagine a better-researched biography than this one. His use of primary sources is great. He quotes from those sufficiently, without doing too much.

Zing. Pop. Wacky. Civil War repro prints.Which of the above is not like the others?Amazingly, they all go together in Quirky Little Quilts by blogger and shop-owner Sheryl Johnson. Classic blocks dominate each of the 14 “quirky” projects, resulting in many divine designs to please the traditionalist’s eye. Ms. Johnson jumbles and juggles war-era reproduction prints until they land in pleasing - but occasionally odd - layouts.(Please note that I don't follow the author's blog, had never heard of her before pre-ordering this book based on its title, and did not write this review at anyone's request. I did, however, go to Temecula once for an hour and it's a really neat town. But that was long before the author ever even opened her shop. My travelling companion was far more interested in dinner than quilting. Sad, but true.)Some of the quilts thrive on asymmetry. Rules of value, balance, and color get broken in others. Poison greens and ick yellows frolic shamelessly amongst the pinks and reds in “19th-Century Nine Patch” (13.5”x13.5”). Scrappy happenstance leads to already-eaten cakes and invisible pedestals in “Calico Cake Stands” (35.75”x28.75”), whose unusual finished dimensions make for a terrific wall quilt. Carefree trumps careless with “Shoofly Sampler” (21.5”x21.5”). 2 or 3 of its blocks are so low in contrast that they are muddy, technically speaking. And yet this quilt happily graces the book’s cover.~ ~ ~Many of the 14 projects are quite beginner-friendly. But do take note that basic quilting skills are assumed or dependent on other resources. Quirky Little Quilts has only 1 chapter of instructions, and that is for single-fold binding.~ ~ ~Although these quilts are small in their bound dimensions, a few are daunting in block sizes and number of pieces. For example, “Patchwork Potpourri” (24.5”x 31”) is a sampler of teeny tiny blocks, 1 of which is 2”x2” 9-patch block made of 9 half-square triangles. It will be a joyous challenge for lovers of miniature quilts.My favorite quilt is super simple and a rare example of Ms. Johnson paying attention to color theory. “Prairie Patches” (15.5”x19.5”) features an array of 1”x1” postage stamp squares arranged in a Trip Around the World pattern. The chosen colors are subtle, sublime, and fantastic. (And who cares if 1 of the directionally striped brown pieces is facing the “wrong” direction? Remember, no rules, just fun and love of fabric.)But my favorite favorite is “Mini Medallion” (20.5”x20.5”). It is a lesson in built-up stripped and pieced borders; 7 of them surround a single 3”x3” 9-patch block. 1 border is made of adorable tumbler blocks, while the outermost border is composed of piano key bars. I have gazed at this quilt's photograph for a certifiably nutty amount of time. I WANT and MUST HAVE those exact fabrics.More surprises await in this charming twist on tradition. I highly recommend you discover them on your own.

This book provides patterns for 15 small quilts ranging in size from 13 1/2" x 13 1/2" to 36 3/4" x 47 1/2" (most are closer to 18" x 24"). Each pattern is preceded by a brief paragraph describing the inspiration for the quilt. The photos are clear, as are the instructions, which include dimensions for not only the finished block, but the intermediate steps that make up the block, row, etc., as well. If you love old quilts, as I do, you will love this book.

Sheryl's first book surely won't be her last. This fun book includes something for everyone, and introduces a unique quilter to the rest of the world. I've earmarked several quilts to make immediately. That T quilt is calling to me!

Great book! This is a must have if you like scrappy quilts. Sheryl has done a wonderful job of collecting the perfect little quilts to adorn your home.

I enjoyed reading the book and reviewing the patterns. The scrappy and small quilts are intriguing. I looking forward to make some of these small treasures with my own scrap stash.

Quirky Little Quilts does not disappoint! It full of colorful little quilt patterns that are easy to follow and deliver a big punch to your decor. So many lovely fabrics used in the samples!

I love this quirky little quilt book! I love making smaller quilts. I can use fabric from my stash. I can have the joy of finishing my small quilt and start another one.

Love the little quilts. Great quilts, great patterns easy to follow patterns. Nicely illustrated with beautiful pictures. Glad I purchased

Review

"Mark Anderson has produced an excellent, incisive, well-researched book highlighting similarities and distinctives between the Qur'an and the Bible. His research is impeccable and his conclusions will stand the test of scholarly investigation. Anderson avoids the pitfalls of inflammatory us-them polemics. He enters into the realities of the Muslim worldview by exploring the seventh-century context of the Qur'an, on which Muslim belief and behavior is built. Without reservation, I commend Anderson's work to all who desire to move beyond 'breaking news' and sensationalism and come to grips with the inside story of who Muslims really are." (Phil Parshall, SIM USA)"Demonstrating a familiarity with contemporary scholarship and respect for Muslim sensitivities, Mark Anderson describes the context in which the Qur'an arose and how it both reflected and challenged that world. While comparing and contrasting Qur'anic and biblical theology and the character of Jesus in the Qur'an and the Bible, he shows how close and how far apart they are. This study provides an excellent foundation for an informed and sensitive discussion with Muslims." (J. Dudley Woodberry, dean emeritus and senior professor of Islamic studies, Fuller Theological Seminary)"As well as providing a well-informed and nuanced introduction to the current scholarly debate over Islamic origins, The Qur'an in Context offers a substantial, theologically serious and at points provocative discussion on the Qur'an in its interface with the Bible and the core themes of the Christian faith. This lucid and thought-provoking study makes a significant contribution from an Evangelical and Reformed perspective to the wider field of Christian engagement with the scripture at the heart of Islam." (David Marshall, Duke Divinity School)"This is a theological and academic evaluation of the Qur'an and its teachings. It's a scholarly but worthwhile read. Recommend to missionaries, evangelism and apologetics professors, and laypeople serving Muslim peoples." (David Mundt, Christian Market, December 2016)

Thanks to author Mark Robert Anderson for doing what needs to be done: reading the Qur’an from the point of view of a Christian who holds both to a high view of the Bible and a respectful attitude toward Muslims. He doesn’t allow his commitment to the Christian faith lead him into a diatribe against Islam, but rather works within his freedom and confidence in the historical and theological integrity of the Bible to calmly explore the Qur’an in context.After thoughtfully reading The Qur’an in Context: A Christian Exploration—and it took some real time and effort due to Mark’s scholarly writing style—I found myself pondering questions about the nature of God that pose challenges for both the Christian and Muslim. This stems from the three chief themes he identifies running throughout the Old and New Testaments (Tawrat, Zabur, and Injil). These are 1. Friendship with God, 2. Free grace of God and, 3. The humility of God. He writes, “Since all three motifs are evident from Genesis to Revelation, it is only right that we assess to what extent the Qur’an further develops them” (p 290). These three themes crystalize the differences between the message of the Bible and the Qur’an. This is a very helpful way of drawing the distinction in general terms rather than getting overly bogged down in the finer details, particularly details that arise when tediously working through the many parallel stories found in the two books. There certainly is a time and place to work through the details, and Mark does a fine job of patiently examining the details, but he skillfully helps the reader always keep sight of the whole forest while walking among the individual trees.Perhaps the single biggest question that has lingered in my mind since completing The Qur’an in Context is the one that Muslims regularly bring in one form or another to try to refute the Christian doctrine of the incarnation. “If Jesus was God, who was in heaven governing everything when he died on the cross?” Most often this question comes with a smile that indicates the questioner feels that a knock-out punch has been easily delivered. But the question focuses on an apparent ontological problem experienced in one precise and fleeting moment of time. The question of God’s presence relative to the cosmos is far more complex than just facing the apparent contradiction of God in Jesus dead on a cross at the same moment he is alive and well on his throne in heaven. Where is God now? Mr. Anderson points out repeatedly that Islamic theology presents a distant and transcendent God. The Qur’anic view of Allah is one almost completely lacking in any kind of immanence. He writes that the Qur’an “in true jahili fashion makes him so transcendent that he is not truly approachable. By comparison to biblical theology, God’s immanence seems overpowered by his transcendence in the Qur’an. For that reason, the Qur’an implicitly rejects the biblical metaphors pointing to our being able to know God intimately” (p 53).But the Qur’an also speaks of God being closer than our jugular vein and has him seeing and knowing the affairs of humans on the earth. So like the Bible, the Qur’an must find a way to solve the question of how God appears to be present, “virtually” if not actually, while keeping his distance and ontological distinctiveness apart from his creation. But unlike the Christian faith which ultimately answers this dilemma by positing a transcendent God wholly unlike and independent of his creation who incarnates as a human man to live and walk among people as one of them, the Qur’an leaves the Muslim with only an unsolved mystery of how the transcendent God is somehow unlike and independent of creation, existing in some other “place” (not even the Muslim Paradise Jannat, because the faithful have no real hope of ever seeing Allah) and yet is so close he knows a person’s innermost thoughts.The Qur’anic divine distance underlies the three main themes. Unwilling in his character to condescend to lowly human beings, God in the Qur’an does not offer himself in friendship to anyone. There is a brief comment about God’s friendship with Abraham, but this lacks context and might mean no more than a friendly gesture without the kind of exchange of self that occurs in a true friendship between two parties meetings in humility. The high and noble God of the Qur’an seems a reflection of the 6th century tribal noble, a person who acts without reference to any external law or consistent character. If this is so as Mark argues, then we are faced with the very uncomfortable fact that such a God whose character and behavior is modeled after a human will be ultimately flawed with the same character problems. Can such a person’s behavior be counted upon to always be fair and just? Do they operate with internally consistent moral structures? One is left with a model far less than the ideal. Perhaps this explains the capriciousness of the Qur’anic God, who can do good or evil. Mr. Anderson writes, “the jahili Arab saw Allah as not remotely answerable to anyone and, taking the same view, the Qur’an treats the problem of theodicy like the nonissue it was to Muhammad’s jahili hearers. The Qur’an never so much as raises the question of the book of Job” (p 60).Two big historical issues always arise in conversation with Muslims. Didn’t Jesus ascend to heaven before they managed to crucify him and didn’t the Jews and Christians corrupt their scriptures? Mark considers these questions and provides historically and logically satisfying answers. First, he argues convincingly that the first hearers of the Qur’an and the author of the Qur’an had not the most remotely wild thought that the story about Jesus dying on the cross was anything but true. He provides ample evidence, including Surah 3:55 and 4:157 (he is an Arabic scholar) that the Qur’an took for granted that a) Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead and b) the written and oral Gospel accounts circulating in the Arab peninsula were considered reliable without question. The theory that God rescued Jesus from death and that the Bible was corrupted came much later when Islam grew and leaders realized that they couldn’t reconcile the Qur’an endorsing the Bible as God’s reliable Word while it in turn contradicted the Qur’anic claim that the earlier books predicted Muhammad’s coming as a new and final prophet. It raises the question, why was the Qur’anic author so confident in asserting that that the Bible predicted his coming? Did he hope he could get established in his power and control before people could dig into the Bible deeply enough to discover that it did not support his claims? Did he really think he was fulfillment of Biblical prophecy? If so, which ones? The Qur’an never specifies.Though the Qur’an does affirm the Bible and the story of Jesus, it empties out so much content and meaning that whatever is left gives the reader just enough to conclude that the Islamic prophet is the best one, whatever else may have transpired beforehand. Mark says the Bible and Qur’an are “So close, yet so far” (p 305).I closed the book with nagging questions. How could such a situation arise? Today with almost 2 billion Muslims centered on the Qur’an, this is far more than a scholarly question. Biblical Christians love everyone and hope, pray and work for their salvation in Jesus the Messiah. Missing so much spiritual “nutritional” value, the Qur’an may vaguely point to the Door, but it’s all so shadowy and blurry, how will anyone ever make their way through it? I would have appreciated Mr. Anderson offering a little more encouragement and perhaps hopeful instruction, how Christians should proceed in sharing the Good News with their Muslim friends. While we may become thoroughly familiar with the Qur’an in context, where do we go from here to introduce Muslims to the sketchy al-Masih who they will all say they believe and love, but about whom they know almost nothing? I also appreciate the effort to avoid polemics, but I struggle between the tension of saying too much and too little. At various times in the Bible we see the powers in confrontation. Moses and the magicians. Elijah and the prophets of Baal. Jesus and the Pharisees. Paul and the Ephesians. One senses Mr. Anderson also wrestling with the tension of knowing how to speak the truth in love. He has done a wise and powerful job that deserves attention. I think there is still much, much more to do.

Before reading Mark Anderson's book I had a broad but shallow understanding of Islam and the Qur'an. He filled in many of the details that I was missing and corrected some of my misconceptions. I appreciated his careful comparison of the Biblical and Qur'anic texts, and I learned more about my Bible as well as the Qur'an. It was interesting to see where the Bible and the Qur'an have some points of similarity, but it was more important for me to get a clear grasp on where they are radically different. The Qur'an in Context gave me that understanding. It is a scholarly book, but I found it approachable for a non-scholar like me.

A timely, scholarly, and very important book, especially in our time of increasing anti-Muslim sentiment. Anderson says "...we must read it [the Qur'an] in a manner that is faithful to its historical context..." while keeping in mind how meaningful and central it is to Muslims everywhere, including those we work with and walk alongside almost daily. In a time of so much anti-Muslim rhetoric, this book is a "must read" for any person serious about their Christian faith. The author shows great respect for the scripture of a people that he clearly cares about. He makes no call to evangelize Muslims while noting that "a fervent desire to see Muslims evangelized can skew a Christian's reading of the Qur'an."

This excellent book is not a polemic. It is an even-handed, factual exploration of the Qur'an.

The Qur'an for many Christians is a very foreign book. Some people have tried to read it and yet have not made it past the second sura. The style of writing is different to most Christians and does not seem like an engaging work, but the reality is that Christians need to understand this work. Whatever you think of Islam, the Qur'an is the holy book of this faith and it has shaped the world greatly.Anderson has written a book to help us in its text. Anderson urges us rightly to try to drop our preconceptions and approach the book seriously and seek to understand the way it was written, the why, and the historical context. Even if you don't think it's holy Scripture, the Qur'an still should be understood on its own terms. That requires work, just like understanding the Bible does. I have been a long opposition to people not bothering to study the historical context of the Bible and yet speaking on it. I say the same for the Qur'an.Anderson goes through piece by piece and then compares what he finds to the Bible. There is no doubt on my part he wants to be as fair as he can to the Qur'an. He also addresses the question of if we worship the same God or not. I think we could say that we have that as our intention and I think that Anderson does argue that, but there can be no doubt the descriptions of Allah and YHWH are vastly different.Anderson also wants us to study the world of 7th century Arabia. What was going on? What were Christians and Jews and pagans all saying? How did Muhammad approach this world?Next comes a long look at the worldview of the Qur'an. What does it say about evil? What does it say about Adam? What must one do to be saved? All of these have marked differences and Anderson has many questions about whether the system in the Qur'an is really coherent or not.Jesus is a big topic. The problem for the view of Jesus in the Qur'an is that it's really downplaying. Very little is said about the ministry and teaching of Jesus. Much comes from non-canonical sources and its depiction of the Trinity is highly lacking. The Qur'an says Jesus is the Messiah, but divests this of any real meaning at all.Amazingly, you can have many in-depth looks at the lives of other people in the Bible, but with Jesus, you get nothing like that. You don't understand what His ministry was and why He came. It simply looks like Jesus is only there to point to Muhammad.Ah yes, but what about the crucifixion? The Qur'an is clear on that and that's that Jesus did not die on the cross. Anderson disputes that and I have to say he makes a highly highly compelling case. I have long thought that Islam denies that Jesus was crucified, and many Muslims do, but Anderson made a case that made me rethink if that's what the original Qur'anic author intended and I dare say I will not be as strident until I find a better response to that claim. Anderson bases his claim on what he considers a better reading of that text in light of other texts he thinks are clearer. He contends that others are reading the clear texts in light of this one and changing those in ways that don't fit.Finally, he wraps things up by asking if we could say the Qur'an is the sequel to the Bible. The answer is decidedly, no. There are too many differences across the board. Still, we should strive to understand the Qur'an in its historical context to have better discussions with the Muslims we encounter.Anderson's book gives a lot of food for thought. He is kind and fair in his treatment and there is nothing here I can think of that would be seen as "Anti-Muslim" or dare I say it, Islamophobic. I look forward to even seeing what some Muslims think about the material in here.In Christ,Nick PetersDeeper Waters Apologetics

The second installment of the Circle Trilogy did not disappoint but managed to choke me even more than "Black" - the first book that everyone should read prior to experiencing "Red". It has been a long, long time since a book made me tear up and this roused up with emotions and abyssal feelings that only very skilled writers can exude from their reader. This is a fascinating installment that takes Thomas Hunter, the man who lives in our reality when awake and also in another world when he dreams at nigh, on the wildest ride of his life. This can only be described as a new form of allegory; characters who understand our world are reflected in the dream world which is engulfed in a battle of massive proportions, people are no longer standing for an idea, they are someone else in the other world and if they die then those consequences spill over and threaten everything that Thomas and his sister ever knew.America is in the hot seat with the release and spread of a deadly virus, and Thomas must use his dreams to find answers and ways to stop it before he is eradicated and he can dream no more. Those who oppose him want him dead and want his dreams to stop but others who love life have nothing left but the hope that he can save them - easier said than done, Ted Dekker likes to swing his heroes and foes as deep as his mind allows, and this is one hairy book, it takes a lot of sweat and guts to take this ride.In the dream world those who rejected Elyon's waters have turned to Desert Dwellers known as Scabs, dry and disease stricken nomads, their minds and eyes are ashen with sickness and visions of death and conquests, the worship Teeleh and the Shataiki and will stop at nothing until the remaining forests and their people are destroyed. In real life Thomas is on hot pursuit to find and rescue the one person who can stop the Raison Virus; the creator of the vaccine herself - Monique de Raison. Her role in the story is much deeper than the reader might think of and I actually guessed part of her secret, it felt amazing thought to live with the characters are see how they developed and how some changed for better and some for worse. Carlos and other mercenaries of death are on hot pursuit and the reader is in for a delicious treat of intrigue, some romance and countless twists and turns.In this book Ted Dekker writes an ultimate showdown between good and evil, and it's been done to the death in books and movies but this novel is simply astounding. I read it in two days and would have read it in one sitting if I wasn't sick with a bad cold, it was truly a book that I know will stay with me forever and I am simply dying to read the last installment "White". These books are so deep and moving they are impossible to describe in a review, instead they should be enjoyed like a fine meal, one that serves more than one purpose to feed, it enriches the user forever and I feel blessed to have taken this journey with Dekker and his friends and foes. So please enjoy and take away from the riches that make the heart beat faster and the head spin - these books read like nothing else and are extremely satisfying.- Kasia S.

I enjoyed the novel "Black" immensely. It was a fulfilling read. Then, as I was getting deeper into "Red," I could feel that it was even better than Black. It didn't make Black any less of a gem, but it was really good. I suppose the word to describe it's quality would be "substance." Ted Dekker's talent as an author really came through in Red. I have never gotten into war stories before, they just weren't my cup of tea. But this thing was very good because of the fantasy. Dekker makes impossible things believable to the imagination.The ending may not appeal to the tough guy, but I felt that it struck to the heart. It went to the core of emotions. I loved it.I don't like the graphic novel of Red that came with the book. If it didn't consist of so many pages I would rip them out of the back of the book. But, that's just me because I don't get into comic books.Yesterday I read a Ted Dekker interview where he stated more than once that his books are not "Christian Fiction." You can find the interview by searching his name on the internet.

This is the 2nd book in the Circle Series. It is a continuation of the journey of Thomas Hunter who lives in 2 realities. When reading the book you begin to see common elements that mirror each other in both realities. Thomas of Hunter dreams and wakes up in the alternate reality but both realities feel real. One character in a reality may mirror a different person in the other reality. You will begin to recognize parallels to the Bible. It is an amazing book. Now on to book 3 - White.

When it comes to "Christian Fiction," I have always hesitated (outside of Frank Peretti). This series came recommended by my Mom. So, trusting her, I picked it up and when I began nearly put it down in the first couple chapters. Something kept me going - and then I was had.Dekker writes a dual reality story and powerfully engages the heart in the story of love, sin, grace, betrayal, temptation, and hope. This story is wrapped in thriller format - and tells of the surrender and sacrifice of Christ. Dekker had me bitting my nales, shedding a tear, yelling at characters, and longing for more grace in my life.If you are longing for a tale of the power, the beauty, and the danger of life connected with the Divine - this is the series for you!1. Black2. Red3. WhiteBe sure to get them in that order!And look, they are only a couple bucks on Amazon - worth it!Go on the journey - get wrapped up in the thriller.

After reading Black, I was so glad that I got these books at the same time instead of having to wait months for the next book. Red picks up right where Black leaves off. Kind of. Thomas is now 15 years older after the colored forest has been destroyed. He is now a respected leader of the Forest Guard, but remembers a time when he had dreams of The Histories. He goes back to what he thought was his regular world a changed man. He has the knowledge that he hopes can help him win the battle against Svensson and Fortier.This series does everything that a good novel should do - I felt every range of emotion from laughter to tears, anger to compassion, but most of all, it made me think.The last few chapters of this book left me speechless. I still have no words to describe how those last few chapters made me feel - almost a week after finishing the book!! This is definitely a series you need to read in order and in it's entirety, but I don't think you'll have that problem once you start.

Decent read just not exactly what I like or was looking for. The predictable back and forth makes me forget the importance of events often.

My niece loaned me a copy of the first of this trilogy named Black. After reading it, I just had to purchase books 2 and 3. Great story. One of those that you hate to put down.

Most people don’t keep their New Year’s resolutions. According to a commonly cited statistic, 92 percent of resolution-makers become resolution-breakers. The odds may not be ever in your favor, it seems.Of course, most people don’t accomplish their goals, period. It doesn’t matter to your body whether you resolve to eat right and exercise on January 1 or July 17, for example. The only thing that matters is whether you eat right and exercise. You can start doing those things — or not doing them — any time of the year. The same goes with any other goal.So why do our resolutions fail? Why don’t we finish what we start? There may be any number of reasons, but Jon Acuff thinks that perfectionism is “the ultimate villain.”He writes:"The problem is that perfectionism magnifies your mistakes and minimizes your progress. It does not believe in incremental success. Perfectionism portrays your goal as a house of cards. If one thing doesn’t go perfectly, the whole thing falls apart. The smallest misstep means the entire goal is ruined."Perfectionism also messes us up by making us aim too high. There are perhaps a thousand reasons 92 percent of resolutions fail, but one of the greatest is also one of the most deceptive."When we create a goal, we aim for something better. We want to look better. We want to feel better. We want to be better. But then better turns into best. We don’t want small growth. We want massive, overnight success."The key to keeping your New Year’s resolutions and accomplishing your goals starts with kicking perfectionism to the curb. This is easier said than done, however, so Acuff recommends taking six action steps:1. Cut your goal in half.2. Choose what to bomb.3. Make it fun if you want it done.4. Leave your hiding places and ignore noble obstacles.5. Get rid of your secret rules.6. Use data to celebrate your imperfect progress.Again, this looks easy, but while Acuff keeps the tone of the book light — he’s a very witty author — there are sound motivational principles behind his advice. And he fleshes out how to take each action step with concrete examples, diagnostic questions and helpful suggestions.Reading a book isn’t a magic wand. Accomplishing your goals requires work, often hard work. But the work doesn’t have to be impossible or joyless. In fact, it should be doable and tap into your deepest hopes.As the New Year begins, don’t let the best get in the way of the better. Don’t let perfectionism hinder progress, however small. Be realistic, be patient…and get ’er done!

Finish acts as a no B.S. guide to getting things done as it helped me quickly identify the barriers, self-imposed and external, that stand in the way of completing what I’ve started. I highly recommend this book to professionals looking to be more effective when it comes to their productivity and better managing their ability to execute. Finish is particularly applicable to creative creators who are writing, podcasting, shooting video or developing any other format of content as there’s a lot of particular tips for helping simplify your goals to ensure you’re able to reach the finish line and get things published.Here are my three big takeaways from the book and why I recommend giving this a read:1) The pursuit of perfectionism keeps you from reaching your goals. Acuff suggests coming to the realization that your goals won’t be perfect and that you’ve got to develop a tolerance for imperfection. There will be failures along the way as you navigate your tasks, but that doesn’t mean you should stop because of a misstep or two or maybe even three.2) Reduce your goals to ensure you reach the finish line. He suggests cutting your initial goals in half to make them more attainable as we typically fall prey to planning fallacy, the tendency to make plans unrealistically close to best-case scenarios. A researcher at the University of Memphis studied the members enrolled in one of Acuff’s courses and found that “90 percent of the people that cut their goal in half said they had an increased desire to work on their goal; it encouraged them to keep going, and it motivated them to work harder because the goal seemed attainable.” He found that people were more eager to continue forward and finish their projects when their goals became manageable and the pace was adjusted accordingly.3) Identify the made-up rules that hold you back and break them. “Perfectionism is a desperate attempt to live up to impossible standards,” according to Acuff. These impossible standards are secret rules or limiting beliefs we all abide by that direct our work and make it more difficult to complete the tasks we’ve committed to. A common secret rule is that only miserable, difficult goals count says Acuff like running to lose weight because that sounds more taxing than Zumba, which you’d rather be doing in the first place. He recommends replacing any cumbersome rules with new ones that are flexible, reasonable, healthy and truthful.If you’re looking to better understand your behavior when it comes to time management, goal setting and productivity, than I highly recommend reading Finish. It’s light, funny and easy to read with strong takeaways you can immediately act on.

As a motivational speaker I read this book to glean some knowledge to give my clients and it did not disappoint. I am big fan of Jon Acuff’s writing and this book is chock full of practical advice as opposed to another book full of platitudes. Jon challenges you to figure out what your roadblocks are and gives you practical ways to tackle them. Trying to lose 20 pounds? Cut that goal in half- lose 10 and then do it again! He also asks you to examine your « why » which I think is crucial in reaching goals. He also talks about the secret rules you have for yourself, e.g. “Success is bad” , “Skinny people are slutty” and asks you to examine what “limiting beliefs” you have that might be causing you to self-sabotage."Goals you refuse to chase don’t disappear, they become ghosts that haunt you."That’s the line that is really resonating for me. As a four time auditioner for NBC’s "The Voice" I love that it is referenced in the book, this last time I auditioned, I started thinking about the “reality” of what I was chasing, realized I don’t want to “catch” that so it “freed” me from chasing it down. You definitely will not be disappointed in this book. Click to buy! Go FINISH what you keep putting off!

This book badly needed editing and barely clears the threshold of being a proper book. There are grammatical errors, fonts change randomly, etc. Most disappointing of all, all the pictures that looked so beautiful on-line are printed in black and white and often distorted because they were not formatted correctly for print! Given that the "Look Inside" feature claimed to be showing the print edition, I think this is deceptive advertising by Amazon. In terms of content, it is not a travel guide as much as a somewhat random collection of tips. Sure, some of the tips look pretty good, but you will not get by with just this guide. There are very few maps, there is no index, and very scant information on basics, like getting around by train, etc. I am really disappointed and almost sent it back, but my husband had already started marking in it.

A great travel guidebook anyone could ever read. I usually used google for guidance during travelling because I thought could find the simplest, easiest, and quickest ways to plan my itinerary but this book is better than any typical travel guidebook on google. It does not simply list things-to-do or must-go-places, it helps you make the most of your trip to the Land of the Rising Sun. Interesting travel tips and exact times for certain areas should be toured are really helpful.

This is probably the simplest (in a great way!) and easiest to read travel book I have ever purchased. My favorite thing about this e-book is that it has brilliant pictures that show you the culture and sights in Japan. The book really has all you need for a short getaway to Japan and if you’re feeling overwhelmed in trying to figure out where or how to start planning your Japan trip. I definitely recommend this book if Japan is on your travel list or even if you’re just thinking about going there on day! I’m excited to start planning my trip to Japan soon.

Decent enough and inexpensive supplemental guidebook with some useful tips, and some not so great.... The maps mostly aren’t legible, so that’s a shame, though you can find most anything online with good resolution now. This should not be your go to book for a trip to Japan, but it can help whittle down destinations if you’re feeling overwhelmed. I wasn’t thrilled with the last 15 pages being excerpts and adverts for other publications, I can see a page or two of other products, not 15. I am also in complete disagreement with one of the bonus tips too, it is suggested in the Kyoto section to skip the Ginkaku-ji (Silver Temple) in favor of the Kinkaku-ji (Gold Temple), they are not “almost the same” and I would argue that anyone with half a soul would prefer the less gaudy and beautifully serene Ginkaku-ji....

Great book, very interesting, good writing and great illistrations. Glad I took the time to read through it. Even though I don't intend to travel to Japan anytime soon I still enjoyed this a lot. It's always nice to have the knowledge available. I especially enjoyed the illistrations in this book, made reading this more enjoyable.

This book is just what we need. It will accompany us with Must-See Japan by Tom Fay. I'm disappointed in the Westerner's review of this book as poorly written grammatically with non-color photos. This is a little book written by Japanese natives, not Westerners. The insights and tips are more important than non-essential grammar and flashy photos. The price is cheap by comparison to other travel books and it gives just the information one needs to negotiate Japan - by Japanese tour guides themselves! Bravo!

This book provides a light amount of detail on the most important places to visit on a trip to Japan. But it is lacking in 3 important items that I could not believe were missing from a travel guide. There is not a single map of any area discussed or even a map of Japan itself. Second, there are no page numbers?! Third, which goes hand in hand with the lack of page numbers, there is no index of what is in the guide. The Table of Contents list chapters but without page numbers you have to constantly fan through the pages to find a chapter. OK, so I added color coded tabs to everything which made it more acceptable, but why should a reader have to do this? Can't recommend it.

Filled with great tips to travel in Japan. This book is not the typical travel guide that simply listed things to do and places to visit with no consideration for travelers who travel on tight or flexible budget. This book gives you tips on how to experience the full fun of Japan as well as gives you estimation on how much it will cost. I recommend it to people who are looking at a complete guide to travel in Japan.
