Couldn’t put it down!
Wow! Not many books have me on the edge of my seat, but it everyday it was one of those “just one more chapter” scenarios. I appreciated the attempt to keep out the swearing. I don’t think it worked as well as intended, though. Such an exciting book! I can’t wait to see the movie now; I just hope it does the book justice.

Timeless classic
Tried to mark it as 10 out of 10, but program wouldn't let me. At 50 years old, I still enjoy watching this movie almost as much as I did when I was a kid. I really hope no producer or movie studio tries to remake this movie with CG as they will ruin it!

TV Show Rating
Xena: Warrior Princess follows the title character as she seeks redemption for her grisly past.

Accompanied by her soulmate Gabrielle, The Battling Bard of Poutidea, they travel across Greece and beyond, righting wrongs and helping the hopeless.

The show itself incorporates various mythological creatures and dieties of Ancient Greece, as well as the gods and goddesses of many other religions, including Norse, Indian, Christianity and more.

The show is full of action, comedy, and supernatural suspense, great for all ages.

This is a bone chilling page turner! Supernatural meets The Exorcist meets Law & Order in a gripping story that has just the right amount of humor, fear, suspense and resolution.

This book read like a dream. I couldn’t put it down. The story grabs your from the first page. There’s no boring build up. From the first paragraph your thrown into the fight.

This book leaves you ready for the next journey. Packed with everything needed to make a satisfying read and reader.

The character development and suspense as to why it all happened is really intriguing (0 more)
There are a couple spots where the story slows a little to build the time and location. (0 more)
Worth a read
I think this did a great job in selling the time frame and how different actions would impact the small community in Mississippi during the 40's just after world war 2. The character development thru the story even added to the story not just the characters.
