Great book. I cried and cheered. My wife wondered what was going on as I read it and now she's doing the same thing as she reads it. After reading this I have purchased two more of Wangrin's books...
I really wanted to like this book. The subject was compelling to me, but much as I tried, I was bored. Some of the charachter development was rich, but all together it wasn't worth the time it...
Don't read this book if you are seriously interested in the religious issues of the first Christians and how they might differ from what the historical Jesus taught. The book fails to convey the...
What if God took human form, came to earth, but soon died, leaving mankind with the devastating knowledge that now the universe was truly God-less? This intriguing premise jump starts this novel...
As I read through the nine short stories that comprise this book, numerous holes in the plot obscured whatever value could be found in the ideas and writing. I found myself moved by certain...
this book caught my eye on a recent trip to borders; and, after reading the back cover copy, i decided to pick it up. it's a quick read, and really intriguing. it's a collection of short stories,...
This audio book is wonderful. Walter Wangerin really leads you into the story by presenting the scenes in graphic detail. I can really imagine myself in the story! I have heard Wangerin in person...
Indeed, I found this book very touching, but I had a hard time fitting into the style that the author was writing in, which he depicts Jesus almost as if he is the 13th, invisible Apostle. This is...

I was introduced to the author by a short story of his that was included in Bronx Noir. This publication puts together a collection of short fast moving stories he has written. Most have to do with...
I'm a World War II buff as my father was in World War II with three battle stars in France and Germany. This was my first novel by WFB and it won't be my last. I thought it was a great novel and I...
Not his best ... but you'll always learn something ...
Reckoning is not Buckley's best (I liked Elvis in the morning much more), but as a quasi history buff, I always enjoy reading about what transpired both before and after WWII, especially in Europe....
Yes it will be nice to learn few things about Nuremberg while following a live personal story. The problem is that this live personal story completely fails to click.
Murder at Pebble Beach appeals to the mystery fan, the aficionado of the ATT Pro-Am Tournament and the rest of us who are attracted to golf, business, wine, leggy women, fast cars, Japanese Yakuza,...
The Heap is the story of street children who have started a society for themselves in a landfill. The children have been shut out from the world so they start their own society. They survive on...
I don't know how to rate this book. Of course the problem of street children is important -- of course we should all care. Of course we should have a commitment to do something about it....

I read this book for the first time while spending an unpleasant time aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln. In fact, it was the last full month of my time there, and in my depths and dives of...
After reading about this book, I decided to pick it up. I was a little wary, as most of the reviews on amazon were from people who sounded like they got off on violence for the sake of violence....
