If you love the outdoors, hunting and conservation then you will love this book. When I started, I could not put it down.
Be forewarned, Cat-head Biscuits & Squirrel Stew will bring back memories of your youth. The real magic of this book is his ability to connect with the reader and then the reader connecting with all their past experiences in the "Big Outside".
Trust me, George is one of those guys that you would like to have on a fishing trip, drinking a few brews and hearing some great tales. He obviously would make a great hunting companion.
George this Bud is for you. Thanks!
I hope I meet you one day!
Happy Hunting

This author is a superb writer, who describes the characters so vividly, that I felt like I got to know the people, as I read about them in the book. I nearly cried when I read of Mr. Walker's death, after I had grown to appreciate him, as I read the "Wild Hogs" story.
George Roof is certainly a master of "painting pictures with words". His excellent use of details, truly brings these stories to life. I felt like I was right there, seeing, and feeling, the action first hand, as he described situations and events. The suspense in the stories, gained momentum with each page I turned. Often, I laughed out loud, and at other times, I fought back the tears.
Any book by George Roof, is now on the top of my "must read list". I highly recommend this book to anyone

Set somewhere in the frenetic sixth season of Deep Space Nine, Millennium is a project of epic proportions for Star Trek fiction that simply leaves one breathless as they're completely enthralled in this page turner that compels the reader at a blistering pace from chapter to chapter leading you into a highly climatic ending.
Star Trek Deep Space Nine Millennium Book I of III - The Fall of Terok Nor
The premise:
This story spans the history of Bajor and the short six years that Starfleet and Captain Sisko has been in command of Deep Space Nine. Going back to the Day of Withdrawal, the day the Cardassians withdrew from Bajor after sixty years of brutal oppression and slavery, this novel begins with Quark, Odo and Garak witnessing an event they will not remember for sometime...
Captain Sisko finds himself and his crew in the precarious position of trying to solve the murder of an Andorian smuggler whose body guards wish to seek revenge upon Quark who they believe murdered the Andorian. At the same time, Vash appears on the station bringing her usual trouble with her and three Cardassians show up as well, despite being in the middle of the Dominion War in which they're clearly an enemy species. Add all of these events up and throw in some extremely interesting Bajoran artifacts that may spell doom for the station and what you have here is one of the most intriguing and compelling Star Trek Deep Space Nine stories ever put to print!
Star Trek Deep Space Nine Millennium Book II of III The War of the Prophets
The premise:
At the conclusion of Book I, The Fall of Terok Nor, Captain Sisko and crew inadvertently brought together the three Red Orbs of Jalbador causing the destruction of Deep Space Nine and the creation of a second, red wormhole or temple to open up in Bajoran space. In a desperate attempt to save as many lives as possible during the destruction of the station, Sisko orders Deep Space Nine abandoned. He finds himself; his senior staff, his son, Garak, Vash, Quark and Rom are all aboard the Defiant. While desperately trying to save as many lives as possible and get the Defiant away from the newly forming wormhole, his ship is fired upon by Leej Terrell, one of the few remaining Cardassians from the Obsidian Order who has been searching for the Red Orbs for years only to be foiled by Captain Sisko. The Defiant is forced into the event horizon of the newly formed wormhole and slung into the future. Captain Sisko and crew find themselves being fired upon by Starfleet vessels seemingly opposed to one another, both looking for his allegiance.
Captain Sisko now finds himself in the year 2400, right in the middle of the War of the Prophets where Weyoun is now Kai Weyoun and he's leading the way towards bringing the two Celestial Temples together, forcing the destruction of the universe.
Star Trek Deep Space Nine Millennium Book III of III Inferno
The premise:
At the conclusion of Book II The War of the Prophets, Kai Weyoun has ensured that the two wormholes are in close proximity, causing the destruction of the universe. Fortunately for our heroes, they all find a way to be there when the wormholes are opened and are consequently pulled into them just before the rest of the universe is snuffed out! Here is where the trilogy gets extremely intriguing as the authors take us through the majority of the characters experiences as they're each thrust into their own personal Pah-wraith hell and are consequently saved from this by somebody that would be the least expected to do so.
Captain Sisko now finds himself in the situation of having to come up with a way to get everybody home to their own time frame while saving the universe at the same time. To hamper him and his crew in their collective efforts to get home, their stuck in the red wormhole and are constantly being shifted around in time.
The authors do an exceptional job of setting up a situation where our heroes have many problems to solve while at the same time, they're all shifting around in different time frames spanning six years on the station! You add all this up and it all comes out as one of the best Star Trek trilogies in print! I highly recommend this Star Trek Deep Space Nine trilogy as it is truly one of the best Star Trek stories in print!
Also included in this Omnibus:
DS9 Millennium Timeline by Allyn Gibson.
Overall, I highly recommend this outstanding Omnibus as this trilogy contains one of the best Star Trek stories in print and not to mention that the three paperbacks are no longer available. {ssintrepid}

The book provides many examples. I recommend working through them, and comparing your answers with provided solutions. The book is short enough that you can work through it in a week, but comprehensive that it covers just about all the topics you will see on the Math subject test. It was in fact a good experience for me to review all the things I learned in college, and saw that there are a couple big themes and they all fit nicely together.
The book contains a few typos. Also, I didn't see any questions on the actual test from the topics covered in the last chapter (additional topics). But that could just be my particular test.
