Publisher's Summary:

DON'T TALK TO HIM ABOUT THE WAR!!!

It has been 20 years since The War, and Major John Karnage has finally settled into retirement: locked up in an insane asylum, with an explosive device embedded in the back of his neck to curb his violent tendencies. Karnage and his troopers have been deemed unfit to live in normal society. Like a bit of old chewing gum stuck under a coffee table, the world has left The War and its scarred, unstable veterans behind.

The military has been disbanded and World Peace has descended upon the Earth. Its inhabitants live happy, profitable lives under the global rule of the benevolent Dabney Corporation. All is tea and roses in this new, sanitized world.... until a terrifying threat from beyond the stars rears its squiggly head! An invading armada of aliens threatens to destroy the Earth, and it's up to Major Karnage to stop them - as long as he doesn't accidentally blow his own head off first.

Members Reviews:

Major letdown

Major Karnage begins with a great concept. We start 20 years after some blowout conflagration of a world war that actually was the war to end all wars. We find our hero, a war veteran named Major Karnage, remanded to a lunatic asylum being treated (along with his loyal band of followers) for violent behaviors. In what appears to be a psychotic episode, the major believes aliens are about to invade. What follows is a bizarre tale of alien invasion against a backdrop of a world run by a laughable cat-centered corporation, worm worshiping fanatics, a self induced megamind, a literal corporate "head", and cloned freelance chauffeur bodyguards that repeat each other sentences.

The pacing is terrible with long stretches of infodumps throughout the sorry, even close to the end. In general, these long, boring recitations add little to the plot, other than to build up to other action scenes which are mostly disjointed. The dialogue is stilted, repetitive, and drawn out. Most of the plot twists are too predictable. The story is not so much formulaic as it is simply obvious. The ending just stops (after the alien is defeated) without any resolution for the bulk of the characters.

The narration is well done with a good range of characters, although Karnage is played a bit too gruff for my taste.

This was so much fun!!!

If you could sum up Major Karnage in three words, what would they be?

Fun, fun , fun. Don't let the first 20 minutes put you off. It all starts to make sense.

What about Fleet Coopers performance did you like?

Excellent!!

Publisher's Summary:

'You shot him. You totally just shot that guy back there. I think I'm gonna throw up.'

One ordinary guy. One female assassin. Five targets by daybreak. When Gobi lands in Perry's life, she rips it apart like a bombshell. Fasten your seatbelts for a quirky, rapid-fire joyride through the streets of New York... A funny, fast-paced, action-packed thriller for young adults from acclaimed author Joe Schreiber.

Members Reviews:

What happens when the exchange student your parents had invited to share your home, turns out to be an international assassin?

A spoof on James Bond, this book is funny, violent, intriguing, fast-paced, with a number of weird characters thrown in to make the mix come to just the right boil. What happens when the exchange student your parents had invited to share your home, turns out to be an international assassin? Pick this one up to find out, and while you're at it, buy Perry's Killer Playlist as well, because it is, if anything, even more bizarre and funnier than the first book.

pure fun with non-stop action

When teenage boys think of female foreign exchange students they go deep in fantasy land with images of beautiful girls with foreign accents. Perry's family is hosting an exchange student from Lithuania and Gobija doesn't fit the fantasy at all. She wears shapeless outfits and is socially awkward. Perry's parents make him take her to the prom, when instead he wants to spend a night in the city playing with his band. So, he isn't thrilled in the least bit. What he doesn't know is that Gobi isn't an exchange student, she isn't a teenager, and she's been hiding a killer bod--literally, she's a killer. On the night of the prom she's out to kill five people and she drags Perry along since he has his father's car. Perry is in for the night of his life as he learns more about Gobi and why she's after these people. There are violent scenes, but this book is pure fun with non-stop action. I just added the sequel, PERRY'S KILLER PLAYLIST, to my wish list. I want more Perry and Gobi.

A Thriller Every Single Time

I first read this book as a sophmore in high school, terrified about the college hunting process as I had no idea what I want to study, nor which school I wanted to go to most. I basically thought that I was in the worst place for applying to college. I am now a Freshman in college (with still no idea what I want to study), and I have read this book numerous times. Every time this story is full of thrill that manes your heart pound and mind race in a way that no modern action film can accurately reproduce.

Each chapter begins with an essay question, some of which are the most ridiculous I have ever seen, that tends to add humourus commentary and reflects the process of change happening throughout the story. Within the thrilling, action-packed story is a story of a senior in high school, Perry, learning how to grow up a little, but in a fun way that shakes you to your core and excites every cell in your body. Small parts of the story may be easily predicted to readers familiar with the typical progression of action stories, but they do not take away from the story. Instead they allow the reader to slide into Perry's point of view with ease and allowing the story's surprises to feel even more shocking.

Au Revoir, Crazy European Chick does in 190 pages what most books can't do in less than a thousand.

Publisher's Summary:

Theyre back!!! The Pirate Captain and his irascible crew of scoundrels return in their soggiest saga yet.

Fresh from their mishaps with Charles Darwin and the evil Bishop of Oxford, the Pirates set sail in a bouncy new vessel - purchased on credit. In order to repay his debts, the Pirate Captain is determined to capture the enigmatic White Whale, hunted by the notoriously moody Ahab, who has promised a reward.

Chaos ensues, featuring the lascivious Cutlass Liz, the worlds most dangerous mosquito, an excerpt from the Pirate Captains novel in progress (a bodice ripper, of course), whale ventriloquism, practical lessons in whale painting, a shanty-singing contest in a Las Vegas casino, and a dramatic climax in which the Pirate Captains prize ham saves the day! Move over, Herman Melville.

Perfect for reading aloud to kids.

More pirates! Bring on the glorious workers' utopia!

We've read all but the "Napoleon" book in the Pirates series, and that one is next on our list... but "Ahab" is our favorite. "Twas a whale that gave me this," has become a regular joke around our house. Thank you, Gideon Defoe! Keep them coming, please!

looking forward to new titles by this author

from beginning to end, the priate captain and ahab was a great read; a fun read and someting i'd recommend to readers who sometimes find little time to really read for just plain fun.

Is There Anything These Books Cannot Do?

"There were several reasons why the Pirate Captain and Black Bellamy didnât get on, but the main one was that Black Bellamy was the Pirate Captainâs evil nemesis, which obviously put quite a strain on the relationship."

These books aren't for everybody. But they should be.

If, for some unimaginable reason, you find yourself not liking these books, immediately schedule a therapist, or a hypnotist, or possibly an exorcist until you do. You owe it to yourself.

More Pirates!

The pirates are back, but it seems that their piratical escapades may be in jeopardy. Their boat is rapidly falling apart, so they pay a visit the boatyard owned by the fearsome Cutlass Liz, the most ferocious lady pirate ever to sail the seven seas (who once ate twenty babies just to prove how ferocious she is). She also is one of the most feared loan sharks, and when the Pirate Captain makes a typically extravagant gesture and buys her most luxurious ship on credit, he only has a limited amount of time to come up with the six thousand dubloons he still owes her before she dismembers them all (as outlined in the contract). Fortunately, Captain Ahab has just placed a bounty on the head of the white whale who ate his leg, and the reward for the capture of the beast just so happens to be six thousand dubloons. Now all the pirates have to do is find a way to catch the whale in time to save all of their skins -- and the Pirate Captain's wonderful beard -- from certain doom.

This took me about a hour to read, tops, (as did the first book in the series). It was, of course, very entertaining and I snickered all the way through. It makes a great beach read (incidentally, that's where I read it myself) or for when you just don't want to have to devote a lot of brainpower to something.

Five Stars

Great book and wonderfully written. The author is very creative.

different kind of book

This was a very interesting book, a combination of facts about many religions intertwined with a fun story. I learned a lot and had a good time doing it.

unusual story

It's part fact part fiction and fun to read. I learned about a variety of religions while reading a clever story.

Irreverent, funny, sharp, insightful, delightful

E.E. King will delight, amaze, amuse, and possibly even cause you to question some cherished illusions with her quick wit, sharp insights, and irreverent yet very human style. This book says many thing, including "lighten up" although I don't recall that exact phrase anywhere. A must read.

Title: The Pig Goes to Hog Heaven

Author: Joseph Caldwell

Narrator: Chris Patton

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 23 mins

Language: English

Release date: 03-09-11

Publisher: HighBridge, a division of Recorded Books

Genres: Fiction, Humor

Publisher's Summary:

Kitty, Kieran, Lolly, and Aaronthe main characters of the previous two Pig Trilogy novelswould be expected to be living happily ever after at this point. But nothing is settled or as expected in Caldwells new tragicomedy (of the kind that only the Irish can compose): Disappeared characters rematerialize, romances that seemed dead burst back to ardent life, and even Taddy and Brid, Castel Kissanes comely spirits, resolve themselves into much-longed-for conclusions.

And the pig who started it all by rooting up the bones of the past and tipping many lives topsy turvey eventually goes wee wee wee all the way to a very unexpected home.

Critic Reviews:

"A triumphant conclusion to Caldwell's trilogy." (Richmond Times-Dispatch)

Title: The Trick of It

Author: Michael Frayn

Narrator: Martin Jarvis

Format: Abridged

Length: 2 hrs and 35 mins

Language: English

Release date: 04-13-10

Publisher: CSA Word

Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 6 votes

Genres: Fiction, Humor

Publisher's Summary:

Michael Frayn is the best-selling author of Headlong and Spies. His 1990 novel The Trick of It is a comical look at an odd couple. Original and witty, Frayn tells a complete story through one-sided letters.

Compact, light and entertaining, The Trick of It is a clever tale. A nameless college professor writes letters to an esteemed friend living in Australia. The professor is a critic who has dedicated his life to teaching and explaining the writings of a profound female writer. He knows her books inside and out. He, perhaps, knows more about the author than the author knows about herself. When she comes to speak at the college, the professor is overwhelmed. He worries that she cannot possibly live up to all he has made her out to be.

However, the critic and the writer wind up spending the night together. Eventually they marry, and he discontinues his teachings. After all, how obscure would it be for a husband to teach classes about his wife's writings? As the letters continue, a picture of a strange though symbiotic relationship emerge, along with all of its moments of humor, sadness, incredulity and joy.

From beginning to end, Frayn's easy writing style allows listeners to settle in and enjoy The Trick of It as if it were written expressly for them.

Critic Reviews:

"Michael Frayn is a master of what is seriously funny." (The Guardian)

"This short and delightful book is pure pleasure." (The Sunday Times)

Members Reviews:

Jarvis and Frayn: a perfect combination

Vintage Frayn...clever as ever. Martin Jarvis is the perfect reader for this unusual 'epistolary' novel.
