Amazon.com: Books: Aviary Slag (#)

„Full of word games and startling non sequiturs, the pieces are narrative fragments, hallucinatory visions or short parables (most are less than two pages) concerned with a characteristic theme of postmodern culture, such as commerce and art, the environment and the city, sexuality and the apocalypse. Among the more memorable stories are "The Conversion of New York Into Birds' Nests," a bureaucratic account of a pastoral fantasy ("we set to work with one hundred thousand pick-axes, three missives in fifteen million cc's"); "Wife. Then Event," in which the narrator's wife turns into a boat, sinks to a silty ocean floor and is rescued; and "Glue In the Melting Pot," a surreal account of a topsy-turvy city overrun by animals and humans with freakish powers. Servin's disjointed fiction, accompanied here by an index (E: Ecologists, Edible guns, Effete, Etruscans, Euphoria, Exegesis, Explosives) and a preface inviting us to read in a nonlinear sequence, aptly evokes the fragmentation of the contemporary world; yet his illogical prose is often more maddening than illuminating, leaving his underlying intentions largely opaque.“

Amazon.com: Books: The Heiress Bride (Bride Trilogy (Paperback)) (#)

„I love Sinjun and I really liked Colin as characters.Colin's children and his sister-in-law were good characters too.But somehow from CC's outline of the book to the fully written thing it just fell apart. As a whole,the book has all the makings of a funny and charming novel but there are so many holes in it when you break it down.First-I think CC might have some sort of prediliction for forced sex because not only was it forced,but it was forced three times in a row.it's like most of her male characters know how to control themselves with mistresses but with wives they can't. Second-the ghost thing was a little unneccesary but it was thrown in because of the Sherbrooke ghost thing in the previous books.I enjoyed the novel but I only see myself reading it once.“

Amazon.com: Books: Twilight Language Of The Nagual: The Spiritual Power Of Shamanic Dreaming (#)

„Providing me with a very good reason to believe that MT's Don Juan is a work of fiction that in no way is representative of the actual Don Juan. The later is backed up by CC's statement that MT's claim that she was educated by Don Juan is false. He also added, and you can look this up by doing a google search on "Carlos Castaneda interviews" and check out his last interviews, that all she was doing was ride the Castaneda band wagon for all its worth.“

„The characters: CC (Chinese Cinderella), David, Sam and Marat - the three secret agents, CC's Aunt, Grandma Wu, CC's Evil stepmother. Highlights: Reading about the Chinese zodiac and finding out which type of animal character you are (it depends what year you were born in). Any weak bits?“

View topic - Accept Credit Cards? - Coffee Forum (#)

„Thanks for the advice Coffee Guy! Our internal discussions regarding the pros and cons of accepting cc's have basically come down to service vs. the cost of a land-line... just wanted to know from someone who has been there that our soon-to-be customers might readily use their cc for the express transaction...“

Amazon.com: Books: Goddess of the Sea (Berkley Sensation) (#)

„Much better premise for a book. Also, we got to see what happened to CC in Undine's body, but we never saw what happened to Undine while she was in CC's. There are so many themes about identity and beauty raised by the plot that Cast just never addresses.“

Listmania! A Chaplin Primer (On Screen and On The Page)) (#)

„A rather mean-spirited bio, but it ranks just behind Robinson's book for its contributions to CC's story.“
