1.		Conversationally Speaking : Tested New Ways to Increase Your Personal and Social Effectiveness from McGraw-Hill Price: $11.53 Customer Review: You know, when I first found out about this book it was at a Barnes & Nobles. I just randomly pickup this book and start reading because I feel like connection with other people via conversation area of life can always be improved for everyone. For some reason, once I started reading this... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		Lifeskills for Adult Children from HCI Price: $8.76 Customer Review: This is a great book for Adult Children of Alcoholics. One of the shared characteristics I've learned about adult children is a yearning for what is "normal". This book helps to know how to 'pick up the many broken pieces' and learn how to move on from the childhood life-style we were brought up in... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		The Owl Service from Odyssey Classics Price: $6.95 Customer Review: After being mesmerized by Garner's stunning Red Shift (Collins Voyager), I ordered this book. I knew it wouldn't be the same, but I thought it might be a good book to give my niece, who enjoys books about owls. But as you should know, Garner doesn't write for children, or even young adult. His books... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		The Weirdstone of Brisingamen: A Tale of Alderley from Odyssey Classics Price: $6.95 Customer Review: This was one of my favorite books as a teenager. Haven't read it for years but if it is still in print I might have to get it out and reread it. It is the best of the 3 Alan Garner books.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		The Moon of Gomrath: A Tale of Alderley from Odyssey Classics Price: $6.95 Customer Review: I first read this in, I think, 1970. It remains a wonderful blend: ancient mythologies, the thrusting of a magical world into ours, and an intense consciousness of the spirit of place, the power of landscape. I've lived in Cheshire, though not where Garner lives, and while I really was conscious of... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Elidor (Odyssey Classics (Odyssey Classics)) from Odyssey Classics Price: $6.95 Customer Review: Reading the other reviews for this book, the main criticism seems to be its story arc. The book has a complete arc, but it's not the one most fantasy readers expect. A lot of readers I think, are being miscued by the standard fantasy tropes (a lost King, a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.	[no image]	Book of British Fairy Tales from Collins Customer Review: I own a great copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales, which is much more comprehensive, but this book is great for another reason. The style that this book is written in is unique because it is meant to mimic oral storytelling. I love that this is the whole premise for the book. Also, the illustrations for... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		The Weirdstone of Brisingamen from Collins Customer Review: I can't imagine why more people (especially young people) aren't reading Alan Garner these days. His books, while still in print, aren't often found in the bookstores' active inventories anymore, which is a sad loss. Well, no matter -- you can get them through Amazon or (probably) at your local... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		Red Shift (Collins Voyager) from CollinsVoyager Price: $8.91 Customer Review: A bitter, dense, vigorous book about the violence and betrayals we inflict on each other. So much is lost along the way - and although there is some survival at the end, what kind of survival is it? There are three interwoven stories, spanning three points in time and one in space - the times... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

11.		The Little Red Hen (Nursery Classics) from DK CHILDREN Customer Review: Our little family are avid children's books lovers. We easily have over 300 children's books-- everything from board books and picture books to adolescent encyclopedias and fairytales-- they overflow out of every book case, cabinet and nightstand. That said, this version of "The Little Red Hen" is... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

13.		The Moon of Gomrath (Collins Voyager) from CollinsVoyager Price: $8.91 Customer Review: I read The Moon of Gomrath when it first came out, and I was 9 or 10. It was the first fantasy novel I had ever read and I really enjoyed it. I decided 40 years later to give it another go, and I was disappointed. In the meantime I've read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and they are so much... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

15.	[no image]	The Stone Book Quartet from Yearling Customer Review: Alan Garner's quartet of novellas follows a working class family through four generations in Cheshire, (northern England). The stories are written in regional dialect, however, they are very accesible and enjoyable. Garner is, primarily, a writer of children's literature and it is perhaps,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


16.		Strandloper (Harvill Panther) from Harvill Press Price: $8.80 Customer Review: This book is both haunting and beautiful... it hung around and is staying with me far longer than most books do when I've finished them. I first read Elidor when I was 14 years old, and that book made such an impression that I still remember it 35 years later. I probably won't be around in another... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

18.		Thursbitch from VINTAGE (RAND) Customer Review: I read this one on a long car journey. It is a book so steeped in the vernacular it becomes just a thick stodge of words. Hidden somewhere in this literary porridge are parallel tales of tragic lovers linked across the centuries by the mystical Pennine landscape. Sadly I couldn't get close enough to... more info	Customer Rating: 1.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information
