5 out of 5 stars I'm a 13 year old but I want to be a CSI.......2005-01-16

Personally I think this review will help you more than the other one. I am a true CSI fan. I may be a child in your eyes but I have big dreams. this book has great detail and will keep you guessing every minute. If you really love CSI get this book.

1 out of 5 stars Its a comic, not a paperback ..........2005-01-15

I didn't scroll down far enough to see it was only 40+ pages which would have been a clue it wasn' a real paperback. Amazon should not label comics as paperbacks but as comics.

Book Description

For decades the lives of the Price family have been snarled with the fate of the ancient forest of Goodmanswood. There, Dr. Lennox Price discovered an hallucinogenic moss which quickly became the focus of a cult. Though the moss is long gone, the whole forest can now affect the minds of visitors. After Lennox is killed trying to return to his beloved wood, his widow sees and hears him in the trees-or is it a dark version of the Green Man that caresses her with leafy hands? Lennox's grandson heeds a call to lie in his lover's arms in the very heart of the forest-and cannot help but wonder what the fruit of that love will be. And Heather, Lennox's daughter, who turned her back on her father's mysteries and sought sanctuary in the world of facts and history? Goodmanswood summons her as well . . .

4 out of 5 stars Methodical, creeping horror.......2007-06-06

I can separate horror stories into two broad categories: action and atmosphere. All stories contain varying degrees of each. With the non-stop action of a thrilling, apocalyptic zombie adventure lying near one end of the scale and the creeping and unsettling menace of the traditional ghost story lying near the other end. The Darkest Part of the Woods typifies the idea of atmospheric horror. Campbell's account of a family's interconnection with a particularly sinister forest succeeds in slowly building a sense of unease, culminating in some exceptionally horrific revelations.

While only felt in the beginning, the presence of otherworldly forces at work in the woods is made more apparent by the discovery of connections to certain Lovecraftian creations. While these references are minimal and not necessary for the story, they seem to strengthen, if not confirm, that the mythology of the forest is rooted in some of the same general ideas from Lovecraft's own. The story is highlighted by the trips into these woods, which become more unsettling as the story progresses, before yielding to the more nightmarish scenes later in the book.

As in much of Campbell's fiction, the psychological state of the characters plays a significant role. With one family member already receiving psychological treatment for previous experiences in the woods, the mental state of the remainder of the family is the focus now with their behavior becoming increasingly more erratic as the story unfolds. While certainly possible (and even hinted at), I am not convinced that mental instability was an intended explanation for the events of the novel, only a source of misdirection. At best, I would concede to the existence of some amount of ambiguity in the author's intentions.

It seems there is some division among the reviews at Amazon.com, I can only make assumptions as to the cause of some of the negative opinions. I thought very highly of the story, however I would not recommend it to someone looking for a non-stop, action-packed thriller. While there are certainly some page-turning moments, I was content with the lingering comfort of a slowly unfolding nightmare.

4 out of 5 stars open mind.......2007-05-23

Books should be approached with an open mind, I've always believed. Darkest/Woods is one of those novels that is more atmosphere than adventure. If you allow it to proceed at its own pace, it will weave its web around your mind. Subtle - no Stephen King antics here - but effective, it's sense of threat and menace grows a bit with every chapter. It's not Nightmare on Elm St, but I'll tell you, I sure wouldn't set foot in that woods. Campbell is a capable writer.

4 out of 5 stars Beware the Fine Print.......2006-06-13

Ramsey Campbell is a bit of an aquired taste. This most literate of horror writers is not out to race your pulse or gross you out. Thrill seekers should search elsewhere. But for those of you able to settle into moody, carefully crafted prose, the subtle delights set him apart from his run-and-gun contemporaries. If most horror fiction is beer to be guzzled, this is cognac to be savored.

Ramsey Campbell has obviously had some experience with psychedelics. Any knowledge you may have in this realm will add to the verisimilitude. If you've read H.P. Lovecraft, M.R. James, and/or Robert Aikman you can better appreciate the literary traditions Campbell draws upon.

I have little to add to the story descriptions ably discussed in other reviews. One additional warning, the paperback version is printed in the smallest type I've ever seen (or not seen). Unless you have excellent vision, buy a new or used hardback copy. And sip s-l-o-w-l-y.

1 out of 5 stars The horror of Airport book purchases..........2006-05-19

I was given this book by a friend with great taste in books, so I eagerly started it.

After the first few chapters, I could not wait for it to end. The ultimate horror of this book is reserved for those compelled to finish any book they start.

As has been mentioned in other reviews. WE GET IT. The woods are "SCARY" and their presence is pervasive. The characters themselves, despite the author's intent, are also wooden, and if the reader experiences any fear, it is the fear of being infected by the banality and possible mental retardation of Heather Price and her insufferable family.

The best way to describe the story for me is this: It's a fairy tale. Its simplistic writing style and unsophisticated fear-factor could have very easily been told in 5 or 6 pages, and inserted invisibly into a volume of Grimm's. As such, it would have been a much better tale with at least the healthy moral about the hazards in spending too much time with your crazy Aunt.

As a novel, it is pure water torture. If the trees ever do revolt, useless wastes of paper such as this piece will most certainly be causative.

I asked my friend about it after I finished. He admitted it was a joke... a book he bought on a flight out to visit me, and in his words "I was praying my plane would crash after the first 2 chapters."

Indeed.

1 out of 5 stars A slow walk to nowhere........2005-08-19

That is what this book should have been called. Reading it is like a very slow walk to nowhere.

    3 out of 5 stars OK if you ignore some parts.......2007-06-06

    I thought the majority of the book was very helpful. However, I was very upset that the authors decided to include some of their political views in the book - in particular I am referring to the statement that individuals consuming more than a certain amount of healthcare are unethical - ie: using biological response modifiers such as Enbrel. I hope that readers will recognize that this is just the authors' opinion - not a fact. Many people in the healthcare industry, including myself disagree with this statement. If you need biologicals, take them!

    5 out of 5 stars An outstanding guide and help book .......2007-05-18

          2 out of 5 stars Some good and some very bad information........2003-06-17

          This book is good as a very basic introduction to Box Turtles and Tortoises. The pictures are good and some of the advice on certain species is worth while.

          However, there is some very bad information included. As anexample, increasing the humidity for a Star Tortoise. This advice will secure large vet bills for you from the respiratory issues your Star will certainly develop. Another is keepng your tortoise in a glass aquarium or glass sided enclosure.

          I doubt the auther has any real-life experience with many of the tortoise species he mentions in this book. If he did, most will be quite ill or no longer with us.

          5 out of 5 stars Attractive.......2002-05-15

          This book is really good for beginner. The high quality picture significantly pushing to own a tortoise.
          Clear and straightforward presentation for easy understand, although your are very beginner, you can successfully get the basic knowledge.

          However, you cannot find detail information in this book because it gives general information only. Actually, if you already feed your tortoise more than half year, then this book is not suitable to you.

          I've read a lot of turtle care books, and this is one of my faves! It's very colorful and entertaining. The author knows his subject and is passionate about it. The guide to reading a turtle's body language was really unique. It was like someone else finally realized there was so much more to keeping turtles as pets. :)

          5 out of 5 stars This inexpensive book is informative and enjoyable........2000-03-31

          An illustration is worth a thousand words and the combination of pictures, illustrations and practical knowledge makes this an excellent book for both the new pet owner and serious hobbyists.

          I recommend books to new pet owners on a regular basis at our web site. Hartmut Wilke's books are amoung our favorite suggested references for general care. This book is no exception.

              Book Description

              If you really want to know exactly how to grow a garden from beginning to end, this is the book for you. Jorge chronicled five different growers from beginning to end. He lists everything they use to layout and construct their grow room including all the prices for everything. He also clues you into all the facts and figures and how to achieve the gram of dried sinsemilla per watt of HID light. Get the inside story from five growers. Every last detail on their grow operation (except location) - how they harvest heavy crops of potent marijuana indoors. They tell everything-how to choose a safe house, build a grow room & cloning chamber, install ventilation, hydroponic gardens & grow lights. Sixty full-color photographs, more than 80 black & white drawings, charts, and graphs illustrate the text. An index and an indispensable appendix of formulas and conversions are also included.

              5 out of 5 stars excellent.......2007-03-08

              I think this book is great for anybody interested in the growth process of marijuana, it is step by step and very easy to follow. For people that smoke weed and never really thought of growing their own, reading this book will deffinately show you that it is an easy way to save money by growin your own weed.

              4 out of 5 stars Good book for setting up grow area.......2006-06-27

              5 different gardens, from small to large, are profiled here. Many great ideas. Highly recommended.

              3 out of 5 stars Small book with some garden designs.......2003-12-22

              Five easy gardens is what you are buying here and is exactly what you get to see. This book is suitable for anyone who wants to see how some other growers do it. Cervantes goes to Europe to interview and photograph growers. He then uses the information they give him to write a book about how they grow. Interesting.

              5 out of 5 stars Great for the small timer.......2003-04-29

              Jorge Cervantes, Mel Frank and Ed Rosenthal to the literate (not quite stoned out of thier head smoker) these names should mean something, these three guys have not only writen books that have recieved international recognition but have grown crops that have won yearly at the Cannibis Cups, all you people who say you read and review High Times, please take a break from your swag stuff and do some reading.This book is full of info for the first timer and those who want to start and stay on a small scale, if you just want to know how to start this will get you there, but if you are going to hang with the big boys get off the porch and start studying.

              5 out of 5 stars This book rocks!!.......2002-06-22

              This book rocks! It really shows some excellent examples for everyones level of interest. I only wish it would show a Garden using a 250w system.

              Being in the international construction industry I find little time to research all the odds and ends involved in managing a large overseas project. John McConvilles book, "The International Construction Costs and Reference Data Yearbook" provides a time saving approach to solving cost questions by organizing a plethora of information about virtually anything a Cost Estimator needs. The reference is organized by country and saves time for any busy Estimator. Thank you John for publishing a book like this and I am eagerly anticipating the release of your most current reference.

                    Book Description

                    The computer has made some typographic rules obsolete while others, previously known only to typesetters, have also been forgotten. Despite this, typography remains a fundamental element of graphic design. About Face presents and explains the typography basics required by all graphic designers, from the names of the different parts of characters, typeface styles and their function, to type measurement, typeface families, and type manipulation on the computer. It also looks at typography at work and features a wealth of applied examples by leading designers from around the world, who use, and considerably extend, the rules to create effective, communicative design.

                    3 out of 5 stars okay.......2006-03-04

                    This book isn't really what I was hoping for. It talks more about the history of type and letter form. I was hoping for more ways to play with type and ideas for how to do it.

                    4 out of 5 stars Beautifully presented with many historical examples.......2003-10-28

                    In an era when many books about typography principles focus on the ins and outs of specific computer programs, here is a beautiful book for beginners that focuses on principles, theory, and examples.

                    Not as densely written as Bringhurst's classic "Elements" book, this book nonetheless has the advantage of being more quickly scannable, and it features many spreads that present actual book designs at full size or nearly so, giving a very tactile look to the book.

                    Other concepts about leading, word spacing, letterforms, and so on are presented with large visual displays specifically constructed by the author.

                    I would recommend this book for beginning graphic design students or for libraries interested in visual arts literacy.
