It also shows the differences culturally and communication wise ...             Tsar: A Thriller Ted Bell Atria, 2008 Tsar It took me longer to read this book than usual. It was ok, but it's not the type of book I like to read. I like mysteries. I think that is why I chose it. This isn't a mystery. It reads like its a story of a movie I guess. It's just different. I'm sorry if this review ...             The Forever War Dexter Filkins Knopf, 2008 Why They Hate Us I've read a lot of books on Islam and our wars in Muslim lands. This is one of the best.

Those and the characters in Le Carre's latest work are commented on in all the other reviews. Let me simply say that the writing is breathtaking, the combination of words sublime. No doubt other authors are as good. ...             Infidel Ayaan Hirsi Ali Free Press, 2008 Brilliant...a 5-star-plus masterpiece! I am certainly not one to gush over books. Authors are human, and write from their own biased perspectives. But every so often a book comes along that gives my own biased perspective a nice swift kick, and that definitely applies here. When it comes to religious ...             American Lightning: Terror, Mystery, the Birth of Hollywood, and the Crime of the Century Howard Blum Crown, 2008 Powerful Tale of Three Trailblazers in American History American Lighting is a brilliant exposé on the highly disparate, and yet amazingly similar, lives of three men: a lawyer, a filmmaker, and a private detective, all of whom helped usher in the twentieth century with their groundbreaking work.

An excellent book. Luttrell's book offers a ground-level perspective on the kinds of operations the US Military's Special Operations Forces are engaged in all around the world, all the time.
