Book Description

An avid antique collector, Jane Wheel owns a lot of stuff. In fact, she owns too much stuff, which often gets her into trouble. So finally she agrees to do the unthinkable: she holds her very first garage sale. Thankfully the sale ends almost before it begins, interrupted by a hysterical phone call from Jane's mother, Nellie. But Jane's relief doesn't last long. Nellie is calling to tell Jane about a mysterious discovery on a neighbor's property: bone fragments, buried in his backyard. Since Jane's husband, Charlie, is a geologist, Jane volunteers to make the trip to her hometown, Kankakee, Illinois, to see if they can help her parents' neighbor, Fuzzy Neilson, sort things out.When they arrive, Jane and Charlie are surprised to find quite a controversy brewing in town, and not just over the mysterious discovery of the bones. In addition to Fuzzy's buried treasure, people are trying to reinvent this sleepy midwestern town. There are a couple of slick real estate developers going around town talking a big game about making Kankakee into Hometown, U.S.A. Then Jane's best friend, Tim, gets in on the act, proposing that Kankakee host the World's Largest Garage Sale. But when a man turns up murdered on Fuzzy's field, the spotlight turns back to the mysterious doings on the Neilson farm.While Charlie uncovers what may or may not be an archaelogically significant site, Jane manages to uncover the town's buried secrets. With the help of her family, Tim, and sometime partner P.I. Bruce Oh, Jane must sort rumor and gossip from the true crimes before it's too late.With Buried Stuff, Sharon Fiffer continues to chronicle the events in the life of her charming, human, slightly obsessive main character, Jane Wheel; intriguing, suspenseful and lively, like the best of mystery writing today, reading Fiffer's latest novel is like coming across one of Jane's estate sale discoveries and finding it full of delights and surprises.

5 out of 5 stars All about the stuff we bury.......2006-08-24

Sharon Fiffer's Stuff series does indeed keep getting better. Heroine Jane Wheel doesn't think there's a lot to her, but we're all the product of our "stuff"--our parents, our histories, our artifacts--and Jane finds out a little bit more about how her stuff is arranged in this mystery that takes her back to her hometown of Kankakee and her friend Tim's all-city garage sale.

Fiffer's got some important things to say about popular culture and personal needs, and she makes it a fun, yet thoughtful, read.

5 out of 5 stars Another Great Mystery!.......2004-12-04

Sharon Fiffer has created a terrific mystery. I've read each of the Jane Wheel books - this is the best yet. Absorbing plot. Excellent use of language and description. Artfully developed characters - they're all quite believable, yet each is quirky in some entertaining way. We've all known a "Nellie" - someone we're in love with one moment and would like to strangle the next. Then there is the unflappable Detective Oh, and his elegant wife, Claire. And Jane's family relationships (with husband Charley, and son Nick) are portrayed in considerable depth and with just the right amount of humor. The story moves quickly along, and the mystery keeps the reader guessing until the end. Mystery lovers should not miss this book. I believe there will be more Jane Wheel editions in our future - and I am thankful for that!

5 out of 5 stars terrific cozy.......2004-10-27

One person's garbage is another person's treasure. Just ask Jane Wheel, a picker who goes to real estate sales to buy objects which she expects a demand to resell. She is also a private detective who seems to attract dead bodies like a magnet and finds out who killed them. Both professions provide Jane with the same powerful adrenalin rush although one seems a bit more sedate than the other.

Her friends persuade Jane to host a garage sale to rid her of the overflow and make room for new purchases. Shortly after the opening, Jane receives a phone call from her mother in Kankakea, Illinois asking for her and her geologist husband Charley to visit in order to examine some remains her neighbor Fuzzy found buried on her property.

Jane, Charley and their son Mick camp on Fuzzy's land. A noise awakens Jane who sees a man fall to the ground. She realizes that he is Fuzzy's neighbor Johnny Sullivan, a now dead reporter; she also sees Fuzzy walking back to her home. Once again Picker ad Private Investigator Jane is on the case of a homicide.

BURIED STUFF is a terrific cozy due to the strong support cast and obviously the center of the novel Jane, who does not know the meaning of the word quit. Readers get a look at a Midwestern small town in which most of the natives pull together to improve life for everyone. Sharon Fiffer provides an interesting story that grips fans without resorting to violence as Jane struts her stuff trying to solve this fascinating mystery.

5 out of 5 stars Can't Wait.......2006-04-06

I love all of the "Jane Wheel" mysteries, particularly "Buried Stuff." Being a picker myself, I have enjoyed the series greatly. They are funny, engaging and witty. I can't wait to read her next book.

2 out of 5 stars So NOT in keeping with the first books in the series.......2006-04-04

The first several books in this series were amazing, wonderful, really creative. This one lagged in a lot of places, was confusing in some and just plain NOT a very good read. I bought it with high hopes, and got rid of it immediately afterwards, definitely NOT worth rereading. I sure hope the new one is back to her old style!

                5 out of 5 stars Never Take a Cellar for Granite.......2006-02-14

                Having inadvertently restarted my acquaintance with C. Dale Brittain's tales of the wizard of Yurt with a late tale (Mage Quest), I decided to go back to the beginning and fill in the gaps. This book, 'A Bad Spell in Yurt,' is the first, and introduces us to Daimbert, a young mage who barely passed his exams out on his first job in the miniscule kingdom of Yurt.

                Daimbert's nice enough, even if he has to die his hair grey to look authoritative, but his skills are meager. And Yurt for all its small size, has major problems. King Haimeric is under a curse and wasting away. Magical locks keep coming undone. The castle needs a phone system, and Daimbert cut that class in school. And, lest I forget, the previous royal magician is a very sour old man who has too many secrets.

                Daimbert, for all his affection for his new kingdom, is up to his neck in trouble. His only salvation is an uneasy alliance with the castle priest. Both find they are in it for more than the bargained for as they discover that the problems they thought they had were a walk in the park when compared to the darker secrets lurking below.

                For some reason the publisher has chosen to market these tales as humorous. While Brittain has a light touch, the real meat of her stories is quite serious. People die or come very close, unhappy secrets are discovered, and sometimes there is a serious lack of hope. This mix of styles is what makes these books more than a confection. Daimbert develops quite a bit in this book alone, and further volumes will see him become the kind of character one is always glad to meet again.

                4 out of 5 stars The Wizardry is Afoot.......2004-05-18

                The Royal Wizard of Yurt series by C. Dale Brittain is an entertaining one. The first book is called A BAD SPELL IN YURT and stars the young wizard Daimbert.

                Daimbert has just barely graduated from the wizard's school but he manages to find a post as royal wizard in the tiny kingdom of Yurt. In this world, only recently have wizards been taught in a school. Previously the apprentice program was the way to wizardly learning. Also strong in this world is the Christian church (although this is otherwise not really Earth).

                In Yurt the young Daimbert (who is dyeing his beard grey) is commissioned to set up telephones and magic lights. But the real reason he was hired was not for minor luxuries, but because a spell is killing the king. Daimbert must analyze the spell, seek help from his predecessor, befriend the local chaplain and convince an evil demon to leave his world.

                The story is paced like a mystery with the reader finding things out as Daimbert does and trying to solve the puzzles of the plot. Although many scenes are light-hearted, this is not a comedy series. t is, however, a very good read and I recommend it for fans of fantasies with a bit of mystery and magic.

                5 out of 5 stars "Spell" is anything but "Bad".......2002-05-17

                Humorous/light fantasy is a much-neglected subgenre, and talented writers in it are quite rare. ...I was delighted to find "Bad Spell in Yurt," a lovely book by a talented author.

                Daimbert is not a particularly good wizard, but it doesn't matter so much because Yurt is not a very big kingdom (as he informs us on the first page). He answers an ad requesting a Royal Wizard in the kingdom of Yurt, where the old wizard has just retired. When Daimbert arrives, at first he thinks that the worst problem he'll have is having to perform magic that he doesn't know, due to his skipping classes. He meets the weakened King Haimeric, the amazingly holy chaplain, the young queen, the flirtatious youthful queen's aunt Lady Maria, the king's sullen-looking nephew Dominic, and various other characters. On the surface, all seems fine, except for Daimbert's problems installing telephones.

                However, something is rotten in the state of Yurt. Daimbert finds that he is not the only source of magic in the castle -- someone or something is causing the king to grow weaker and weaker. When he asks the old Royal Wizard about the problems, the only thing the old man will say is that no one can go into the north tower. Daimbert must unravel the mystery, and find who is responsible for all these problems. But can a class-skipping young wizard face evil and win? Hopefully!

                C. Dale Brittain adds a little spice and flavor to the usual wizards and medieval settings. There are no strained attempts to make this tale ultra-different, but rather Brittain simply lets it flow. We have kings, wizards, demons, courtiers, and political plotting. Yet the plotline never becomes bogged down or too serious.

                Humor in this book is never blatant or overdone, eliciting chuckles rather than belly laughs. I loved Daimbert dyeing his beard gray and buying the threadbare red-and-black top, writhing when the constable announced that they wouldn't expect telephone magic for at least a few weeks, and noting that his "Christmas suit" is ruined after slaying a dragon. It's wry and understated, but very realistic. Readers could definitely imagine someone thinking this way.

                Daimbert is a delightful character. He's not flawless, or even very skilled, but his brainpower and niceness overcome the fact that he's not too good at wizardry. The supporting characters are a little less defined, but all are great, especially aging (sometimes NON-aging) ingenue Lady Maria, the solemn chaplain (who is as likeable as Daimbert in a very different way), and the ex-Royal Wizard, who is the sort of crotchety, capable wizard that everyone likes.

                Descriptions are pretty good, evocative when describing action but never overdone. The dialogue is also realistic; too many fantasy books take themselves too seriously, resulting in silly melodramatic language, but this book is full of characters who talk like real people. The conversation with the demon is especially well-done, as is Daimbert's debate with the chaplain.

                ... Fans of Discworld ...should check out the adventures of Daimbert.

                5 out of 5 stars Thoroughly enjoyable light fantasy.......2000-09-17

                This book is not as lighthearted as the title might indicate, but it still has a great deal of charm. It is a light, engaging read, but there is nothing light about the subject matter. Kudos to Brittain for being able to pull it off! The depth of the characters and view really surprised me-- very rarely are fantasy books, especially light fantasy books, written like "real life," where sometimes there ARE no easy answers or ready-made villains. The characters are very real people, and their relationships and reactions to each other are complicated and not always easy to define (just like real life). I don't want to scare anyone off by this "heavy" review because it's not a "heavy" book at all. I found "A Bad Spell in Yurt" to be an excellent light fantasy that can be appreciated on a deeper level (if one is so inclined). It is worth noting that my twelve-year-old brother liked it as much as I did, in his case without doing all the complicated analysis.

                5 out of 5 stars Good fantasy, and an easy read........2000-04-13

                A wizard who manages to graduate from Wizard's School gets a job in a small kingdom far from the city. It looks like a good job, but when he gets there the first thing he is asked to do, he hasn't a clue of how to do. He learns as he goes and finds that he can do what is asked of him. He goes so far as to invent "new" magic because he didn't listen as well as he should have in his classes. As a teacher, I find that kind of sad, but kind of hopeful in that those students who have potential can overcome their lack of interest in education and find that their instructors do know what they are talking about. I have all the books in the series and look forward to finding the time to read more of them. So many books and so little time, if it catches and holds my interest, it has to be a good one.

                  3 out of 5 stars Did not learn all to much.......2005-09-16

                  Although very comprehensive in effort and detail, I felt it did not go below the surface of anger causes. It covered so many types of just everyday anger that even the Dali Lama would have to admit to some of them.
                  I know everyone has their moments however to dwell on lists of "does this happen when or does that happen when " , I believe is less theraputic than to seek deep root cause. Thats where people learn to overcome the problem.
                  I did not find this book helpful.

                  5 out of 5 stars This was a good observation tool.......2005-08-24

                  Having gone to an anger management class, the teacher recommended this book. I was very delighted in how they outline types of anger, as well as solutions. There is a quiz that helped me define my style, and underlying causes. Then, there are defined solutions. Very simple, no psychomumbojumbo. Easy to read, understand and incorporate. I certainly consider it a valuable tool for anyone dealing with their own anger. It also helps in understanding others angers a bit, but mostly your own.

                  5 out of 5 stars Easy To Read - Very Informative - Can Be Life Changing.......2005-05-21

                  If you would like the hardcover format it is IBSN 0760712735. This book covers the problem of too much anger and what to do about it. Anger is not only a mental burden, but too much anger can make you sick.

                  1 out of 5 stars Don't judge this book by the cover !!!!!!!!!!.......2006-10-09

                  I had thought this was a great book for learning how to use Dutch Ovens for cooking. Lots of good general info and many nice pics. But, when it comes to the recipes I just don't get how the author can get them so screwed up. As I am new to Dutch Oven cooking I followed the recipes and cooking times precisely. I just wish the author had taken the time to take each recipe and follow it as per the directions to re-test the directions. Many of the cooking times are just plan screwed up and incorrect. As an example, there is no way in this world that the 1 hr cooking time for the sausage and sauerkraut recipe is anywhere near close to correct. Being new, I followed this literally and found that 1 hr is totally inadequate to get the dish to cook thoroughly. Tonite, I am trying the Big Woods Chichen recipe. One hour is completely inadequate for cooking. I am now trying to get the recipe to cook at 2 hrs. I'm sure my rice will be completely overcooked when the chicken is finally done. I am using a Viking professional stove which has been tested and calibrated and am also using a Lodge Dutch oven. Please don't waste your money on this book. It looks good but when you follow the recipes to the letter the results are poor and very disappointing!!!!!!!1

                  5 out of 5 stars Good history and some other ibformation.......2005-09-01

                  This book has just saved me from worrying about gifts for my friends and relatives who camp or hunt. I plan on giving this book to many friends. The book is a great mix of history of the dutch ovens and the food cooked in them. I find it well written from the non-expert's view and would make a good book to introduce people to dutch oven cooking.

                  5 out of 5 stars Everything You've Always Wanted to Know About Dutch Oven... .......2005-04-26

                  Mr. Fears takes the reader from point A to Z with every bit of information you could possible need. This beautifully photographed book includes various qualities of dutch ovens, how to season them properly, accessories, care & maintenance and many tasty recipes! Our next camping trip will have an easily achieved gourmet element!

                  4 out of 5 stars GREAT book for information.......2005-03-22

                  This book is excellent for all the information you may want to know on dutch ovens, how they are manufactured, seasoning, storage, care, how to cook (several ways), etc. There are only a few recipes which are good. I would buy this book again as a reference book. It is great to give as a gift with a dutch oven.

                  As the Samoyed is considered the oldest of the domestic dog breeds, Pat's book tells their story from the beginning. This beautiful, intelligent breed needed their story told. "The Savvy Samoyed" tells it well, completely and with good humor. This should be required reading for anyone wanting a Northern breed of dog.

                  5 out of 5 stars A very helpful book.......2003-03-09

                  As the owner of one of Remington's boys, (Remington being the Savvy Samoyed on the cover) this book has helped us greatly. We have read and now use it as a reference to any questions or problems that may come up during this wonderful puppy stage. It covers everything from the time they are born, to breeding, to the time they become show dogs and beyond. The pictures are great and some are quite funny. This is a beautiful and loving breed of dog. It is very interesting to know what their background is and where they come from. Also interesting is the chapter on spinning with Samoyed hair. It is great that the book tells of how they speak and have a language all their own, and how helpful they are to people in need. It is quite clear the love and knowledge that Pat (the author) has for these dogs. Best wishes to you Pat, and best of luck to all Samoyeds and their owners.

                  5 out of 5 stars More than just another dog care book.......2002-01-14

                  Illustrated with fine black-and-white photographs, The Savvy Samoyed is an excellent introduction to the white, double-coated, plume-tailed, exceptionally intelligent Samoyed breed of dog. The Samoyed is a demanding canine breed, whose beautiful coat requires daily grooming, whose large stature requires a broad fenced-in area for exercise, and whose keen mind needs something to do all day - the Samoyed was originally bred as a working dog. Yet the rewards of love and companionship can be bountiful for those ready to devote the their time and energy to proper maintenance of this splendid breed. The Savvy Samoyed's chapters include information on the many different working careers the Samoyed can pursue, the mechanics of a dog show, and advice on overseeing Samoyed whelping. More than just another dog care book, the Savvy Samoyed is a superb tribute to this wonderful and gorgeous breed.

                    I like this book so much - this is the third copy I have purchased this year! (I keep giving my copy away to family members who desperately need it.) The black line drawings are what keep bring me back to this one book for all of our pruning needs. We have berry bushes (some wild and some we planted ourselves), flowering shrubs, fruit trees, a bonzi tree, a dogwood, grape vines, 3 old Oaks trees and 2 young Walnut trees. This ONE BOOK has helped us to care for each of them according to their needs and age. It has helped turn my brown thumb into green.

                    If you're looking for a good basic book on pruning this is it. I purchased the Ortho book on Pruning and it was a terribe. I went to the library and rented several books on pruning and this was by far the best.

                    I was somewhat disappointed when this book came. I was expecting a detailed description on pruning individual types of trees. For example, I wanted a book that I could look crepe myrtle up in the index go to that page and have a detailed description on how and when to prune. Crepe Myrtle is not even in the index. I am going to buy the Southern Living Gardening book now.

                        3 out of 5 stars The Best that Never Played.......2000-09-05

                        "Fly in a Pail of Milk" is the autobiography of Herb Carnegie, the 3-time, Senior League MVP and career minor leaguer, who should have broken the NHL color barrier 20 years before Boston Bruin Willie O'Ree. Despite being referred to as "the best that never played," the Ontario native never realized his dream of playing in the NHL for his beloved Toronto Maple Leafs, most said, because of the color of his skin. Though the pacing, at times, is a bit slow, the book is a worthwhile read, primarily because Carnegie is rarely mentioned in hockey history books, and few of even the most versed hockey fans could tell you who he is.
