The Yellow Wallpaper, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman

Review The unnamed narrator and her doctor husband, John, live in "a colonial mansion, a hereditary estate..." She believes the house is haunted. "John laughs at me, of course, but one expects that." She believes she is ill but her husband, and her brother, also a physician, say it is only "temporary nervous depression - a slight hysterical tendency..." They insist on "phosphates or phosphites - whichever it is - and tonics" and absolutely forbid work until she is well again. She believes "Personally...that congenial work, with excitement and change, would do me good. Personally, I disagree with their ideas. But what is one to do? I did write for a while in spite of them; but it does exhaust me a good deal - having to be so sly about it, or else meet with heavy opposition." She is confined to rest in a room she hates with wallpaper she finds hideously ugly: "The color is repellent, almost revolting: a smoldering unclean yellow... dull yet lurid orange in some places, a sickly sulphur tint in others." It is in this room that she writes her secret journal that is this story. She struggles to believe in her husband and brother's "kindness" and "care" while, with terrifying starkness, she narrates her journey into madness. -- For great reviews of books for girls, check out Let's Hear It for the Girls: 375 Great Books for Readers 2-14. -- From 500 Great Books by Women; review by Jesse Larsen

About the Author Charlotte Perkins Gilman (1860-1935). Gilman's work is available in Penguin Classics in The Yellow Wall-Paper, Herland and Selected Writings.

From AudioFile In 1892 an unnamed woman passes the slow days of summer writing down her innermost thoughts while convalescing. Her observations focus on the strange effects of the peeling, fading, yellow wallpaper in her bedroom. The Spencer Library has created a unique audio experience in this chilling tale with profound psychological and moral implications. Claudette Sutherland gives a remarkable performance. Her subtly expressive voice is so skillfully recorded that her soft intakes of breath have a desperate life of their own. The haunting beauty of Carol Nethen's original score can momentarily distract, but it supports more than it interferes, a tribute both to the composer and to the excellence of the recording standards. The listener is rewarded with a fully realized dramatic performance with a strong musical presence. C.T. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Gilman ratchets up the tension of a woman's psychological decline while simultaneously making a pointed critique of the era. It manages to be eerier than much of Poe without ratcheting up the Gothic tendencies of similar stories of psychological decline.

Poddany THE YELLOW WALLPAPERWritten in January, 1892, by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, THE YELLOW WALLPAPER is a delight and a treat to read. Truly, Gilman was a woman to beat all.THE YELLOW WALLPAPER is one of seven short stories in this small little 70 page book. However, there's nothing small about Gilman's writing. Such candor! Such wit! Such wisdom for a lady in the late 1800's, writing as a profession -- I mean, this was something that was just not done!THE YELLOW WALLPAPER is about a woman who is 'nervous' and depressed. Her husband, a doctor, takes her to an old home to vacation and get well. She is suffering from depression after giving birth, but back in those days, this was an unknown and undiagnosed disease. Her hubby decides she needs rest and relaxation and insists she stay in an upper floor room, the one with the yellow wallpaper. Sadly, the days and weeks of being isolated lead this poor woman down a path that has no return. Her journey into madness is so wonderfully detailed you can feel her mind slip-slidin' away. What an awesome and shocking read. Yet, Gilman handles this poor woman's sorry fate with such wit, humor, and insight. To quote -- "John is a physician, and perhaps -- (I would not say it to a living soul, of course, but this is dead paper and a great relief to my mind --) perhaps that is one reason I do not get well fast. You see, he does not believe I am sick!" To sum up, the poor woman 'sees' things in the wallpaper and keeps a journal of her days/nights. What an enticing read. Very haunting.Another favorite was TURNED. A married couple have a lovely young girl as a maid. After the husband seduces her and gets her with child, he goes away on a business trip. The young maid and the missus are left alone to work things out. The way things work out for the two women -- left alone to clean up the mess -- is quite the surprise, shocking, and very, very well written. A twist of fate opens the eyes of the young wife and she is no fool, revenge could be the answer.Gilman writes beyond her time -- all of her writing was written and published in the late 1800's and early 1900's. Women were treated like children, received no respect, and were not considered equals to men. These stories are full of fun, wit, humor, surprises, and read easily and well. All of them revolve around the relationships between men and women and are fun and fantastic, yet disturbing both in content and truth.Charlotte Perkins Gilman was born in 1860 and died in 1935 at the age of 75. She committed suicide after learning she had incurable cancer. She was an advocate of euthanasia and killed herself with an overdose of chloroform.Gilman was a sociologist, novelist, author of short stories, poems, fiction and non-fiction. She was also a lecturer on social reform. Her aunt was Harriet Beecher Stowe.THE YELLOW WALLPAPER short story was written in two days but has been enjoyed by readers around the world for over 100 years. Gilman's writing technique has made this reader a fan and I will certainly read more of her work. She is a great user of the exclamation point !!! -- in fact, in YELLOW WALLPAPER that simple !!! after thoughts and sentences makes the reader aware of how quickly and surely our friend who sees things in that horrid wall covering is going insane.I highly recommend this small book of short stories -- they will stay with you for years to come.Thank you.Pam

The Last Man, by Mary Shelley Includes: Complete Bibliography Biography of Mary Shelley Live Linked table of contents for easy navigation Soon, too soon, I entered the giddy whirl; forgetting my studious hours, and the companionship of Adrian. Passionate desire of sympathy, and ardent pursuit for a wished-for object still characterized me. The sight of beauty entranced me, and attractive manners in man or woman won my entire confidence. I called it rapture, when a smile made my heart beat; and I felt the life's blood tingle in my frame, when I approached the idol which for awhile I worshipped. The mere flow of animal spirits was Paradise, and at night's close I only desired a renewal of the intoxicating delusion. The dazzling light of ornamented rooms; lovely forms arrayed in splendid dresses; the motions of a dance, the voluptuous tones of exquisite music, cradled my senses in one delightful dream.

Review

“Anne McWhir’s edition of The Last Man is first rate! Mary Shelley’s novel is well served by a careful editor who provides an informed introduction, comprehensive annotations, and well-chosen appendices that contextualize this richly complex novel―Shelley herself would have been pleased!” ― Charles E.

108 of 115 people found the following review helpful. 'All The World Has The Plague!' By mp Mary Shelley's novel, 'The Last Man' is a work which is slowly gaining the critical attention it richly deserves. Fans of 'Frankenstein' will be astounded at how much deeper Mary Shelley's indictment of 'masculine' visionary Romanticism, technology, and the faults of humanity go in 'The Last Man'. At the same time, the novel is fraught with problems and contradictions which give an already paranoid work a whirling sense of internal dementia.The action of 'The Last Man' takes place between 2073 and 2100 AD. England is ripe for change as the last King of England abdicates his throne in response to public outcry for a more democratic form of government. Lionel Verney, a shepherd, is drawn out of a life of wildness and crime by Adrian, the former crown prince of England. The charismatic Lord Raymond enters the story as the lover of Lionel's sister, Perdita, and the newly-elected Lord Protector of England. Torn between his love of power and his affections for his wife and a persistent attachment to Evadne, a Greek woman, Raymond renounces his political position and flees to Greece. There, he leads a military campaign to establish Greek independence and bring about the end of the Turkish empire.Then, the Plague takes over. The nondescript malady has wiped out the population of Constantinople just as Raymond conquers it, making his victory meaningless. Word of the plague's virulence comes in from Asia and America, and from the southern, eastern, and western corners of the world, the plague begins to encroach inward towards Europe and England. The remainder of the novel tracks Lionel and Adrian's attempts to save the human race from utter annihilation.In 'The Last Man', Mary Shelley gives us a horrifying, desolate prophecy of the future, when religion, technology, and human effort are all exposed as meaningless. Although many might say that she also abandons the redemptive possibilities of art, I think that art provides the novel's only hope. Mary Shelley's dependence on art of every format is clear in the novel's influences - She has Lionel refer to literature, including the works of Daniel Defoe, Charles Brockden Brown, Ann Radcliffe, Homer, Shakespeare, and Jonathan Swift among others.The novel is fraught with problems of gender and power relations. At any moment of emotional weakness, Lionel calls himself 'girlish' or 'womanly,' and the novel seems to privilege women who are selfless and submissive. On the other hand, as Morton Paley's introduction points out, the plague itself is consistently described as female, at one place referred to as 'The Queen of the World'. With regard to power relations, Lionel continually mentions that in the dying world of humanity, social distinctions have all been abandoned - and yet there are still references to his 'servant' or those of other people. The most problematic scene in the novel revolves around racial distinctions when Lionel encounters a dying black man in London.There are a million things to talk about in 'The Last Man,' and a novel so rich for discussion deserves to be read by as many people as possible. This is a book I warmly recommend, so pick it up and discover that there is more to Mary Shelley than 'Frankenstein'.

59 of 61 people found the following review helpful. The Beginning of the End By Greg Hughes In "The Last Man" (1826) Mary Shelley conceived a plot device that would eventually be used by a string of writers: an apocalyptic plague that virtually wipes out the human race. From "The Last Man" would come books like "The Scarlet Plague" (1912), "Earth Abides (1949) and "The Stand" (1978), each work taking something from its predecessor, each work written in a separate, distinctive era. The passage of time would allow writers to be more graphic in terms of aftermath, as readers became more sophisticated and less disturbed by what earlier generations would consider "horrifying"."The Last Man" takes place in the late 21st century: a future without telephones, cars, television or computers. In fact life in the 2090s is not that different to the 1820s, apart from a few political changes (Britain is now a republic). Readers who criticized "Earth Abides" for being dated would have even more to complain about here. Shelley could not possibly have guessed the advances, social and technological, that would take place since 1824. Therefore it's helpful for the modern reader to pretend the story is happening in an alternate 21st century, along the lines of "Pavane".The narrator Lionel Verney spends the first third of the book describing his early life, telling us how an altruistic young man of noble stock (Adrian) took him under his wing, effectively saving him from a life of penury. Lionel and his younger sister now mix in the highest circles, the cultured world of art, literature and music (things which the working class had nothing to do with in the 1820s).Mary Shelley's prose is formal to say the least. Containing echoes of Byron and Wordsworth, it is rich, stylish and philosophical. It is not until Part two of the novel that the plague makes its appearance. When Shelley describes the plague there is mention of bodies lying in the open and the breakdown of order, but she doesn't treat it with the kind of brutal frankness that Stephen King does in "The Stand". It does look as if King was influenced by Shelley however. Here is a quote from "The Last Man":"The ward was filled with an effuvia that caused my heart to heave with painful qualms. The dead were carried out, and the sick brought in, with like indifference; some were screaming with pain, others laughing from the influence of more terrible delerium; some were attended by weeping, despairing relations, others called aloud with thrilling tenderness or reproach on the friends who had deserted them while the nurses went from bed to bed incarnate images of despair, neglect and death."Here is a quote from "The Stand" one and a half centuries later:"Wards were crammed. Patients lay on the floors. The halls were full; nurses, many of them obviously sick themselves, wove in and out, some of them weeping hysterically. Others looked shocked to the point of coma." King also adds little details like the smell of waste and the cries of the damned. While Shelley is poetic, King is direct and to the point. He was writing for an audience whose attention span has been diminished by things like television and films laden with special effects. The impatient 21st century reader may therefore find "The Last Man" more of a challenge.Although Shelley's plague is more gradual than those of other writers, society is still crumbling. Even though extinction is in the air, the main characters still perform acts of heroism. The character Adrian has all the makings of a saint. It's just unfortunate that there will be no one left alive to canonize him. Although "The Last Man" is dated, it did pave the way for a genre that still fascinates and terrifies readers today. Mary Shelley is owed a great debt in terms of apocalyptic literature.

30 of 33 people found the following review helpful. "The Last Man," the best of Mary Shelley's "other" works By Lawrance Bernabo Mary Wollstonecraft Godwin Shelley published "The Last Man" in 1826, eight years after her classic "Frankenstein" and four years after her husband Percy Bysshe Shelley died. Of all of her other novels, "The Last Man" is clearly the one that is of more than passing interest. In her Journal in May of 1824 Shelley wrote: "The last man! Yes, I may well describe that solitary being's feelings, feeling myself as the last relic of a beloved race, my companions extinct before me." The result was one of the first novels to tell a story in which the human race is destroyed by pestilence, which we have seen in novels from Richard Matheson's "I Am Legend" and Stephen King's "The Stand," and films such as the recent "28 Days Later..." However, "The Last Man" is also an early example of a dystopian novel set in the 21st century when England is a republic being governed by a ruling elite. Adrian, Earl of Windsor (and a representation of Shelley's late husband) introduces the narrator of the tale, Lionel Verney, who is the required outsider to describe and comment upon the world of the future.Shelley's vision of the future is essentially a reaction against Romanticism and the failure of the movement to solve the problems of the world with art and imagination. This would stand in contrast to earlier English utopian works such as Francis Bacon's "The New Atlantis," which reflected the Age of Reason's belief that science would solve any and all problems. Shelley begins the story as a romance, with Lord Raymond (presumed to be modeled on Lord Byron) winning the hand of the lovely Perdita and being elected Protector. In contrast to the dire predictions of Thomas Malthus regarding unchecked population growth resulting in mass starvation, an ideal world seems to have been created. But then the plague breaks out in Constantinople and starts spreading. This plague is grounded more in fantasy than science, with Shelley clearly relying more on Boccaccio and Defoe, for her pandemic, which is not contagious (an interesting plot choice to be sure).The point of the plague is that it allows Shelley to show the best and the worst of human nature. When the demagogue Ryland abdicates being Lord Protector, the altruistic Adrian takes his place and makes an appeal for brotherhood, even as anarchy runs rampant in the streets and eventually the main characters are forced to flee England, which has strong parallels to the expulsion from Eden. This sets up the idea at the end of the novel that the last survivors might be able to establish an earthly paradise and rebuild the human race after the plague has disappeared. I was rather surprised that Shelley kills off her female characters because I had expectations that this would be more of a feminist work. Of course, this is because I remember who her mother was, but "The Last Man" is clearly concerned more with her late husband."The Last Man" was probably Mary Shelley's least successful work during her lifetime, but today, which the interest in science fiction, as well as the real world threats of biological warfare and other weapons of mass destruction, this idea of how the world ends is quite pertinent. This is clearly her most important work after "Frankenstein," although obviously we are talking about a significant gap.

Inhuman, by Kat Falls

From Booklist Following a cataclysmic plague, the eastern U.S. has been quarantined behind a massive wall extending from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. Crossing the wall is a capital offense, so 16-year-old Lane is horrified to learn that her father has gone over the barrier and headed to the East. At the behest of the authorities, she is sent after him and quickly finds her life in danger from the Feral—vicious, hybrid beings who are half human and half animal. Happily, Lane finds help from two fearless young men: Everson, a guard, and Rafe, a soldier-of-fortune type. In between swashing and buckling, both take time to fall in love with Lane, who is being pursued by a tiger-man who wants to eat her heart. Yes, life is complicated in the East, and more than a tad melodramatic. Fans of dystopian fiction, however, will find a good deal to like in this fast-paced mash-up that includes elements of romance and horror and, no surprise, an inconclusive ending that promises a sequel. Grades 8-12. --Michael Cart

Review "Readers will find themselves drawn into Lane's story through the author's consistent worldbuilding and striking turns of phrase. Lane is an appealing and credible protagonist; her progression from obsessive cleanliness to fearless engagement with the infected is subtle and believable. Sure to satisfy fans of the dystopian-romance genre and to gather new ones along the way." - KIRKUS, Starred Review"The animal hybrids are sometimes intriguing and sometimes terrifying (like the half-bat half-piranha weevlings) but are always compelling. . . . This is a perfectly plotted, deliciously suspenseful journey through a lush, intriguing society in which nothing is quite as it seems." - SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL"Falls presents Lane as a competent, admirable heroine who more than holds her own. The setting holds great promise, and its dangers are quite entertaining. . . A solid start." - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY"Recommended for readers looking for a thrilling, page-turning read." - VOYA

About the Author Kat Falls is the author of Inhuman, Dark Life, and Rip Tide. A graduate of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, she holds an MFA in screenwriting from Northwestern University, where she now teaches. She lives in Illinois with her husband and three children.

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. an okay story, but I expected more By Sarah (Source: I received a digital copy of this book for free on a read-to-review basis. Thanks to Scholastic and Netgalley.)16-year-old Lane lives in a dystopian society, where beyond the boundary wall live people who are known as ‘feral’ – part-human, part-animal hybrids.When Lane is picked up for possibly being infected (having the disease that turns people feral), she soon learns that the reason is that her father has been going across the boundary to the old city of Chicago to bring back priceless art works. One woman has evidence of him crossing the boundary, and offers Lane a deal – get her father to retrieve something for her from Chicago, and she’ll make the evidence go away.Given only 5 days to find her father, get the item, and get back behind the boundary wall, Lane is on a tight schedule.Can she find the scientist who supposedly knows where her father is? Can she find the item the woman has asked for? And can she do it without becoming infected herself?This was an okay dystopian novel, but it felt like a bit like a fairy-tale-mash-up.Lane was an okay character, although I did think she was maybe a little dumb at times. I didn’t quite get how she could figure out that the stories her father had told her, were really about what was on the other side of the wall, but then not figure out that the strange creatures he’d talked about where also real and on the other side of the wall. Logic missing.The storyline in this book was a bit of a strange one. At times it felt like we really were in some kind of a dystopian future, and then at other times it felt like some kind of fairy-tale world. At times I got hints of ‘The Wizard of Oz’ – a tiger-man who is going around searching for a heart (the tin-man), and a girl who is looking for a scientist who will tell her what she needs to get home (Dorothy), never mind that they were traveling along a road (admittedly it wasn’t made of yellow bricks but we can’t be too literal). Not forgetting the feral and very vicious monkey type things, which reminded me of the Wicked Witch’s flying monkeys.Then there were hints of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ – Lane having to crawl through small spaces, and then a very self-important, and nasty-piece-of-work Queen, who kept ordering people killed (I was waiting for the ‘Off with their heads!’ line!), who reminded me of the Queen of Hearts.There was even a ‘Beauty and the Beast’ angle worked in there – ‘the beast has to win her heart’, which was unexpected and quite clever.I did feel that this book lost its way a little in the middle, and I did find some of the middle bits a little boring, but thankfully it picked up a bit at the end. The ending was then alright, but again, I thought that Lane had been exceptionally stupid as it turned out. There was quite a lot not wrapped up at the end, leaving more to be explored in further books, but I wouldn’t want to read these back-to-back. That boring part in the middle stopped this from being anything more than an okay read for me.Overall; and okay dystopian fairy-tale-esque story.6.5 out of 10.

Finally I couldn't take it anymore, and I had to write this review before my mind exploded from awesomeness overdrive! First and foremost I have to say how much I really, really, enjoyed this book! I fell hard for this book, and the characters. I was literately on the edge of my seat the entire time. It was such an amazing ride on a rollercoaster of highs and lows, that felt never ending! Inhuman was nothing like I thought it would be, no it was wayyyy better then I ever could of imagined! I thought it was going to be another ol' zombie book. Which is fine, I love zombie books, its just that not too much has changed in that genre. But Mrs. Falls has managed to bring something so fresh and unique, that I literally had to force myself to put this book down at times, because I did not want to stop reading until the last page, and even then I was screaming for the next in the series, it was just that good! The writing was suspenseful and very graphic. The author painted such vivid gruesome scenes that left me with a visual that lasted long after the book was over. Mrs. Falls has managed to exceeded my expectations and more with this novel. The Plot A vicious virus has swept across the United States wiping out most of the east side. The virus initially killed the host, but years later the virus progressed and started turning humans into animals. Yep, you heard that right. ANMAILS, Not zombies! But these animals were still half human, well at least until the virus completely takes over not only their body, but their mind too, and when that happens, steer clear, because their coming at you full force. The United States quickly took action by building huge walls, cutting off the whole east side, leaving the infected to die, or better yet, mutant. While the next generation grew into teens, they were shielded by the truth of what really lies beyond their safe haven. The infected! The humans on Westside, the safe side of the wall, was told that the virus infected people then it killed them. They were kept from the truth of what really lies in the east, Man and Animal combined! Of course their was rumors, but that's all they were, rumors! Sixteen year old Lane is among the naïve, sheltered from the truth of what's really beyond the walls of their haven. Lane never imagined she would ever step foot into the Savage zone behind the wall. But that's exactly what Lane intends to do when the truth is revealed about her father. Her father is a fetch, someone who travels into the Savage zone to reclaim any lost property left in the east side before the virus hit and destroyed their world. But if a fetch is caught going beyond the wall, then the penalty could very well be death, and Lane refuses to let that happen! When her father is caught on video traveling beyond the wall unauthorized, she is offered a deal. Travel to the quarantine line and deliver a letter to her father, offering immunity for his crimes if he aggress to travel into the roughest city left in the east and retrieve lost property. Without any other option, Lane reluctantly aggress to deliver the letter to her dad. And that's when Lane comes face to face with the truth of what lies in the Salvage zone, Mananimals! That's when Lane's adventure starts. She travels the Salvage lands in search for her father, and runs into trouble around every corner. She enlist help from a line guard, someone who patrols the quarantine line, and a human boy that might just be more feral then the actual Mananimals. Together they travel through the dangerous infected cities, in search of her father and the item they need to make her father's crimes disappear, all while searching for the missing infected blood types for the 50 different stains of the virus, in hopes of taking it back to their head doctor to find the cure they need to end the virus and rebuild their cities! But Lane is too trusting with never living with or around the infection. She has a soft spot, and wants to help the ones that can't help themselves. And that right there, might be Lane's downfall, and untimely lead her to her demise if she's not careful. Lane has all these problems on top of trying to deny the feelings she's having for both her traveling companions. Yeah, that was one hell of an adventure! I've never read a book so different, but yet so utterly amazing. These Mananimals were so different then any other zombieish-aninamlish thing I have ever read. There wasn't that much romance in this book, but with the way it ended, I'm sure the next book will have plenty of romance to satisfy. There is a slight love triangle, but I would say its enough to drive anyone away you doesn't like them. I am so looking forward to the next book in this series, and I can't wait to dive back into their next adventure, because let me tell you, this ending almost had me in tears! It was torture the way it ended. I have to know what happened to one of my favorite characters after something devastating happened to them at the end! Mrs. Falls your cruel! Cruel I tell you! That ending was tooooo much for me to handle, and with the second book so far away, I will be in a living a nightmare until the next book is in my hands! Overall, I loved pretty much every aspect of this book. The writing was great, the plot was unique and original, and kept me craving more, and the action kept going and going until the very end! I couldn't of asked for a better book! Now Mrs. Falls BRING ON BOOK 2!!!

Entertaining thought lacking believability By Lizzy Lessard An entertaining dystopian world but a less than believable heroine gives me mixed feelings about INHUMAN. Lane has lived her entire life on the safe side of the wall. She’s heard only rumors about the feral world on the other side. When confronted about her father’s illegal activities, Lane accepts everything told to her at face value. She’s apparently been subconsciously primed for a mission to the other side of the wall as all the fairytale stories her father told her as a child come true.It seems that I have more trouble adjusting to this hidden wealth of information that Lane has then she, herself, does. She also apparently has taken every self-defense and wilderness training possible. I just can’t fathom how Lane could be that prepared for a trip across the wall and NOT have even a little clue that her father was involved in illegal activity before she’s shown proof.She is naïve to a fault and stumbles into very sketchy situations because her trust is easily given. Of course, this also means that since she’s partnered with two other males that a love triangle forms. It doesn’t matter that one of these guys is a clear a-hole and the other one breaks a half-dozen military rules just to be her prince charming. There’s a clear winner in this love triangle, yet…as usual…the girl is too dumb to tell one of them to f--- off.The plot progresses like a drunk man, which is rather entertaining to watch. The end goal is clear, but the characters get sidetracked easily. It’s funny how much Lane unintentionally sabotages their progress chapter after chapter. The lack of cohesiveness between Lane and her two male partners is probably my favorite part of the novel. They’re so different from each other. They have different goals by the end of the book and at times those goals directly interfere with what Lane wants to do.Then there’s the ending location that makes me want to watch CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG again. Substitute kids for [spoiler] and it’s the same damn premise. The bad guys here are so over the top that it’s silly. I was actually shocked how quickly the story reverted back to a serious tone…maybe the whole court scene wasn’t suppose to be funny. My bad.Not too long after this happens, the book ends. Yup, cliffhanger. You have been warned.[Review has been edited to eliminate profanity. I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.]

Motivated by the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, champion swimmer Lee “Stump” Kelley is hell bent on becoming a Marine. His all consuming goal: To kill as many of the hated enemy as possible. Waylaid by a silver tongued Navy recruiter, he becomes a frogman instead. Lee and his team of frogmen are the first to hit the beach all over the Pacific, blowing up obstructions on a string of tropical islands. At Tacloban he receives a rude awakening. War may seem glorious and patriotic when sitting back home on your comfortable living room couch, but up close and personal it’s blood and dying. And when he loses his two best friends in gruesome encounters, his whole belief system is challenged. Shaken to his very core and wanting to end it all, Lee has to suck it up and move on to Okinawa with what’s left of his frogman team. There he becomes entangled in the Navy’s costliest operation of the entire war. Barely surviving a fleet decimating typhoon, he is burned during the most frenzied kamikaze attack Japan ever musters. Shell-shocked and swaddled in gauze, Lee is sent to Guam to recuperate and prepare for the invasion of mainland Japan, a landing everyone has been dreading for months. When an admiral and his staff asks for his opinion on the impending operation, even though he’s only a second class petty officer who has never seen a three-star before, “Stump” doesn’t pull any punches. After taking a deep breath, he tells it like it is. Frankly, Admiral… Can we really allow the Japs to take a million of us with them Cause that’s how many American lives it will cost us to march into Tokyo. And I know damn well, one of those lives is gonna be mine.”

By Bob Davis I just finished reading Stump by Larry A. Lindsey. A well written account of a WWII Navy Frogman’s stories as told to his friend, the author. Lee Kelly, one of many sailors who were part of “the greatest generation,” put their lives on the line for their fellow countrymen. Lee Kelly survived; countless others did not. His story, like many others of the war, add up to the monumental effort required to defeat our enemies. Truly a window into American Exceptionalism. A fast and easy read.

Every time I pick it up I get drawn back in to the characters and plot.Wager has such a cinematic style I can't understand why this has never been a major film. Although considering the mess they made of Telefon and Twilight's Last Gleaming perhaps its just as well.A group of WW2 SOE veterans use their training to avenge the murder of a comrade in a mob-run town. Taking the view that it is "enemy held territory" they take on the mob boss and the corrupt local police and recruit the local citizens as a resistance army.

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. an exciting story by an excellent author By A Customer this book is a reissue of an excellent book. A group of highly trained adventurers from WWII come together to avenge the death of a colleague. They return from normal lives they had assumed and set about trying to reform a corrupt city.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Not Serious--But a Great Read By Robert L. Piepenbrink Quick summary. The book is set mid to late Sixties, I should say, despite a somewhat later publication date. A crusading reporter in a small and seriously corrupt southern town is killed by the local powers that be. Unknown to them, he was an OSS vet from 1944 France, and his four former colleagues reunite to take the local mob apart the only ways they know how--violence and subversion.It's worth noting that Wager's novels were adapted into vehicles for vehicles for the great action heroes--Telefon, Die Hard 2 and Twilight's Last Gleaming are all his work, and he did the novelization of Raw Deal.This is a thrill ride. Wager understands nothing about how an OSS team was organized--and this is just about as pertinent as understanding the real Cardinal Richelieu is to reading The Three Musketeers. This is about comradeship, violence and romance--a modern-day swashbuckler. Read and enjoy. When you're done with this one, try Swap and Designated Hitter.

Frozen (Taken), by Erin Bowman

From School Library Journal Gr 7 Up—This title suffers from "second book syndrome." The dystopian novel, which continues protagonist Gray's story set in a war-torn United States separated into two distinct territories—AmWest and AmEast—is broken up into four parts and starts slowly as the members of a rebel group journey across land and sea, looking for allies and a secondary base. The action picks up in the third section when the characters finally reach the walled-in compound where they hope to find new supporters in their fight against the dictator Frank and his cloned soldiers of The Order. Many of the standard genre elements are present including a barren future landscape where water is a rare and valuable commodity, a power-hungry leader, and the requisite love triangle. What is lacking in this volume are thoughtful questions that give the narrative a deeper meaning. While Frozen may not garner the series any new fans, those who enjoyed the first title will appreciate the continuation of Gray's adventures and the novel's plot twists. Buy where the author is popular or readers' appetites for dystopian is insatiable.—Carrie Shaurette, Dwight-Englewood School, Englewood, NJ

From Booklist In this follow-up to Taken (2013), Gray and his team continue to journey away from Taem, searching for more resistance fighters with Frank’s Forgeries hot on their trail. His feelings for and dependence on Bree deepen, though Emma and their shared past continue to have a hold on him. This volume has less discovery but more movement than the first, and it retains plenty of the action and suspense that readers appreciate. Late developments hold great promise for more excitement and drama in the third episode as the team, much changed since the start, form new alliances and Gray’s drive is renewed. Grades 7-10. --Heather Booth

Review “A surfeit of enemies and a constant sense of danger heighten the suspense.” (Kirkus Reviews)“The strengths of this series are in the dystopian world and survival aspects. Frozen will attract most readers of science fiction.” (Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA))“Plenty of action and suspense.” (ALA Booklist)Praise for TAKEN: “An action-packed thrill ride from beginning to end. I devoured this in one sitting and might have gnawed a nail or two off from all the excitement. More, please!” (Marie Lu, author of Legend)“A suspenseful trek. Readers will eagerly await the next installment.” (Kirkus Reviews)“An action-packed, emotionally charged, plot-twisting adventure.” (Booklist)“A dramatic work that is reminiscent of Lois Lowry’s The Giver and will appeal to fans of Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games.” (School Library Journal)

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Frozen was a good read full of action and suspense. By Dark Faerie Tales Review courtesy of Dark Faerie TalesQuick & Dirty: Frozen was a good read full of action and suspense. Unfortunately, I had a really hard time with the love triangle, so that really hindered how much I enjoyed the story.Opening Sentence: We have been walking for two weeks.The Review:Gray escaped the Heist, but that was just the beginning. Leaving Claysoot was suppose to provide him with answers, but instead he found himself in the middle of a war. The United States tore itself apart and now clean water is a scarce commodity. The US split into two different territories the AmEast and the AmWest. They fight to control the water supplies and it has turned deadly. There is a ruthless man that rules the AmEast and he will do anything to bring his enemies down. He has come up with an idea to build the perfect army, but because he is a cruel man, a rebellion has risen up to overthrow him.Gray and his band of rebels are on their way to try and find allies. Group A was supposedly abandoned years ago with no saviors, but Gray believes differently. Out of all the test groups they were the most well stocked and provided with the highest living experience. If the rebels can convince Group A to join they may be able to use their city as a second base and finally be able to beat AmEast. But Gray has to constantly question who he can trust with the technology that the enemy possesses — anyone could be a traitor, even his closest friends.Gray is an interesting character that was hard for me to relate to at times. He is very loyal and when he believes in something he is willing to fight for it. But he is really indecisive about a lot of things and it really drove me nuts. When it came to the girls he was completely spineless. It was like he could never say no to a pretty face and he was naïve enough to not think he was leading both girls on. Even when they would plainly spell it out to him. Sadly, this made me lose a lot of respect for Gray because it made him come across as a jerk. Because of this, I had a really hard time connecting with him and his story.Bree is a very independent girl that has had a very hard life. Being heisted at 16, she has been traveling with the rebellion for almost a year now. She has a hard time letting people in and she doesn’t like to feel like she owes anyone anything. I get that she has been hurt, but I felt that the whole tough act is way overdone. She is so moody all the time that it started to really get on my nerves. With Gray she was very hot and cold and honestly, I thought she was being ridiculous. Alas, because of her moodiness and dramatic attitude, I ended up really not liking her character at all. It was hard for me to root for her and Gray because all they seemed to do was fight. I thought they brought out the worst in each other, and personally I think they are way better off just being friends.Then there is sweet Emma. I absolutely fell in love with Emma in the first book of the series. She is so caring and stayed true to herself. Yes, she obviously made some big mistakes, but I thought that she tries really hard to redeem herself. Also, she really wants to make things work with Gray even though he has been a total jerk to her. I honestly think that Emma deserves someone better then Gray, but I do think that they complement each other well. I just loved their romance from the very beginning and I hope that they end up together.I know that I have said quite a few negative things about this book, but in all honesty besides the romance this was actually a really great book. I usually don’t have a problem with love triangles, but this one really didn’t work for me at all. Maybe it was because it was a guy and two girls instead of vice versa. It made Gray come off as a jerk and both the girls seemed so fragile that they would totally break if he didn’t pick them. But with all that being said, the rest of the book was very well done. It was very fast paced and full of action. Bowman did a wonderful job weaving a story full of intrigue and suspense. There were some pretty big plot surprises that really kept the book interesting. While I didn’t quite like this book as much as Taken, I still did enjoy it, and I am looking forward to seeing what happens in the final book. I would recommend that young adult dystopian fans give this series a try, I think that they will find it interesting and unique.Notable Scene:I take a small step forward, and he pinches the blade into Emma’s neck. Blood blooms against the weapon, against her pale skin, and when she cries out in pain, I know this is not my brother. Not really. Blaine would never force me into this position. He would never hold a knife to Emma or spill even a drop of her blood/We’ve been deceived. We are not dealing with one spy; we are dealing with two.And they are Forgeries.I do the only thing I can think of: I let my arrow fly.FTC Advisory: HarperTeen provided me with a copy of Frozen. No goody bags, sponsorships, “material connections,” or bribes were exchanged for my review.

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Exciting and Captivating By SciFiChick This sequel is mostly a journey for Gray and his friends. His relationship with Bree is strained as he still has feelings for his first love. It’s a love triangle that began in the first novel that only becomes more complicated. And when a sympathetic clone comes into their midst, it’s hard to know who to trust.Frozen is a solid sequel with plenty of adventure, suspense, intrigue, and betrayal. The plot twists are numerous and incredibly dramatic. This impressively woven dystopia series is exciting and captivating.*Review previously post at SciFiChick.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Great followup to TAKEN! How will I wait for the third book? By Susan Dennard I loved this book! Gray and the gang are as kick-butt as ever, and WHOA. Talk about a twisty plot (in the best possible way). There was one shocker at the end that left me gaping (again, in the best possible way). If you're a fan of high action, dystopian/sci-fi, or survival stories, I definitely recommend FROZEN.

While my past books about Patterns covered visual situations where what to do is evident or at least well known and established, just a matter of learning by heart, this handbook comes in when one does not know what to do.   While the move is always demanded by the position, the many rather equivalent possibilities are not evaluated simply by a sequence of candidate moves, or by brute force in case of computers, but require reasoning with words. Which are generally addressed as rules or guidelines or what you want, being actually Strategy, strategic Patterns.   The content of this handbook is aimed to beginners who should follow religiously at least these two dozens of patterns, the titles are well known, I tried to explain why, and gave examples, the way deductive teaching is done. As usual with my books, Links are provided for the games, which will aid the understanding without the need of a chessboard if you can connect to Internet, with Wifi or other.   Pawn structures are not considered due to the many good books available on this subject, and as their reading is suggested when one reaches expert level.   Knowledge of algebraic notation is required, which is easy, refer to Wikipedia in case of doubt. To help, figurines are used for the pieces instead of letters.   This time there is no previous Italian edition, therefore, besides the usual grammar error for which I apologise, the content, while checked for correctness, did not yet pass the control of many readers; so I encourage my readers to write me in case of doubts, discrepancies, missing links, uncompleteness and the like.Rodolfo Pardi, librarian, instructor and arbiter of FSI (Italian Chess Federation)
