(Why really happens if you get swallowed by a whale, are shot from a cannon or go barreling over Niagara...) Silly science at its most entertaining. If you've read What if?, this is very much like an expanded version. All the insane questions a 12 year old might come up with? - a good portion of...
Holy Insta-Love, Batman! And holy magic dick, Batman!I took a chance on a new-to-me author, because the blurb of this book was intriguing. Rich party-boy/man-whore seeks new life away from the six maybe-boyfriends who'd only use him for his money and runs to his aunt's house in small-town Clover Cit...
I've heard that the four medieval mysteries of which this is the last wasn't as successful as Penman's other books and no more are planned. Which I find a shame.

Auch Hughs Schwester Eleanor begibt sich mit auf die gefährliche Reise. "As the Crusades take hold, one man's legacy is yet to be determi...
I love Paul Doherty's writing style and I've read another one of his series - "Amerotke". It's about Egypt and i really enjoy it. So I couldn't wait to start The Relic Murders, it took me a little time to get into the story, but when I did I couldn't stop reading. And after reading a couple of the...
