What a twist! Great kai adventure.
As Lone Wolf, you are dispached by the king to investigate a missing shipment of gold...ok, where have we heard this before? But hold on-the plot thickens! You journey to Ruanon, a mining province, and discover that evil again is plotting to rear it's ugly head-in the shape of Lord Vashna-the long defeated and very powerful Darklord of Naar. The Acolytes of Vashna are attempting to ressurect him, and only YOU can stop them! Grab the book and pick up the fight!

The Chasm of Doom is the best Lone Wolf book I have read.
This is the best book I think in the Lone Wolf series. You are Lone Wolf and you are out to find the king's gold that was stolen. The things that I like in this book are you are able to choose your suplies such as weapons, special abilities, backpack items, and Kai Disciplines. The Lone Wolf series is a good series to read on vacations, coming home from a trip, or just a book to chill out with...

Great!
The Lone Wolf books are divided to 4 groups, book1-5 is the kai series, book6-12 is the Magnakai,13-20 is the Grand Master series and 21+ are the New Order series... The Chasm of Doom is the best book in the Kai group.It is very challenging and requires your utmost caution and strategem.A must-have!!

a wonderful book for ages 9 to any age.
i thought it was the most wonderful book i ever read.i suggest it to everyone. i know anyone will love it

She never thought she'd go all the way.
A 2 year vacation with 3 sisters and your parents. Maybe some people would like to get away from everything for a while. Mary did, too, until it all becomes too much. Mary was sick of it. Mary, being the oldest, took a lot of responsibility over ger younger sisters. Almost enough to have them call her mom. Their real mom being pregnant doesn't help, either. Finally settled on the west coast, Mary hopes things will get better, but they only get worse. Mom starts retreating back to childhood and Dad is trying his hardest to believe his own lies. Mary is aware something has to be sone. She sees everything falling apart; what is there to do? The RV breaks down, which only makes Dad mad and turns him to drinking. Now, stuck there, no place to turn,no one to turn to, Mary finds a solution. Definitely not a easy one , but a permanet one. Mary Wolf never wanted to hurt anyone, she just wanted a home. This book is easy to relate to. You realize you don't always see how good you have it, until you see someone who has it worse. It's very easy to read through the book without putting it down once. So, don't have anything to do this afternoon? Pick up Mary Wolf by Cynthia D. Grant, and listen to her story.

Cry of the Wolf
As a teacher of twenty-two years, I am always looking for quality literature that lends itself to being read aloud in the classroom. CRY OF THE WOLF is such a book! The story is riveting and keeps children on the edge of their seats. You know you have a winner when students ask you not to stop reading or remind you that it is time to start! Whe Jim Tyler comes face to face with the memacing wolves he must confront not only the hungry predators but the fact that he is an invalid lost deeply in his own self-pity. The story is so competely spellbinding that it won't be forgotten by those who read it. I strongly recommend this novel to children ages ten to sixteen.

Cry Of The Wolf, a winner!
Cry of the Wolf is a beautiful book about a young handicapped boy who finds he can actually do more than he thought when he puts his mind to it, and that thinking of some one, or something other than himself is a better way than self pity. I'd highly recommend this book to young people to the age of 13 or 14.

One of the better from Dever
This book, written in novel form and taken after the Lone Wolf Series (writen by Joe Dever), takes place in Magnamund, a vast world where the peoples only real protection from their mortal enemies, the Darklords, are a few handfulls of the finest warriors: the Kai Lords.

Vonatar, an apprentice in the Brotherhood of the Crystal Star (a wizards guild) kills one member after secretly learning the forbiden Right Hand magiks. He goes to meet the Darklords and start the fiercest war ever seen in magnamund, one which would almost completely wipe out the Kai Lords.

Only one boy can save them. A mere Kai Initiate, Silent Wolf must track down the mighty Vonatar and stop him at all costs...but can he endure all of the harshness of Magnamunds terrain, creatures and enemies? Read Eclipse of the Kai to find out!

Lone Wolf - need I say more?
I have been THE Lonewolf fan since early childhood. My collection is vast, and this is one of the books I have. Purely wanderous, mythical, and what pure fantasy is all about.

Starting of as a setting for the gamebooks, starting of with Flight from the dark, this novel, being the first Legends novel, sets the scene and explores te world and characters which are included in the game book.

So good, written well, and fantastic for the imagination. Some one PLEASE make this into a film.

Legends of Lone Wolf are so good, that I seriously hope that the publishers would begin re-printing them again!

Another Successful Achievement by Joe Dever in Paper and Ink
Fans of the Lone Wolf series will love this incredible book. The conclusion of the Berkely-Pacer Legends series, the book masterfully puts in novel form Lone Wolf 3: The Caverns of Kalte. From the icy glaciers Lone Wolf and his three guides must face to the final confrontation between our hero and the evil Vonotar, adventure is put into prose that takes the reader's breath away. The syntax, the words, and the general tones Joe Dever sets makes this icy adventure one to get


Of Time and the River

Brimming With Passion, Fury, and Intensity
In the opinion of many, Thomas Wolfe and Theodore Dreiser were two of the finest writers to emerge in the first half of the twentieth century. Dreiser interpreted contemporary events and spun them into finely crafted novels that painted a complete picture of American life in the times he lived. Wolfe, on the other hand, was a less effective story teller, but a wonderfully expressive writer--a true wordsmith from the North Carolina hills whose emotional intensity explodes in every well-turned phrase. It is said that he could never have become the literary spokesman for the disaffected generation of college writers coming of age during the Depression without the firm and guiding hand of Maxwell Perkins, his faithful editor nursing him past the troubling demons of his personal life. However, I have to wonder if Perkins caused irreparable harm by excising too much material. The recently published Starwick chapters which were purged from the original manuscript by Perkins in 1934, show the young novelist at his very best. One wonders just how much better this literary masterpiece would have been, if Wolfe's original draft (which they say filled a box the size of a coffin) had been left alone. Thomas Wolfe's passing at so young an age created a terrible void in American letters, but he inspired thousands of idealistic but unpublished authors to pursue their craft with the same mystic that he poured into every paragraph and every phrase of these majestic novels and short stories.

Vivid imagery of young Wolfe's passage through America, life
Even if you never slog all the way through this tome, you owe it to yourself to thumb through until you reach Wolfe's vivid descriptions of the following: 1. His fertile imagination fixing on small town life as his train rolls from his hometown up to Harvard 2. His description of the state of mind and body of the old men in the club car, playing cards and waxing philosophic in their cocoon of smoke and upholstered comfort 3. His self transfer into the still strong mind and emaciated body of his dying father. 4. The train. There is always the train. Behemoth. Chariot to freedom. Iron Leviathan. Taking him away from Ashmont, clinging love, bitter memory, clay, dust, dirt, flower, self. If there is any more skillful recreator of all these elements, all of these forces, in our own beings, from any age ... in any language ... please, please ... let me know

An amazing Grey Star adventure!
It is a deep shame that Beyond the Nightmare Gate is now hard to find. This is one of the greatest adventure books ever written, and if you can find a copy from Amazon, it's well worth it! We join our hero Grey Star in another plane, the Daziarn. A realm of nightmares and ghosts await the reader, who must battle the fiendish enchantments of the Black Crystal Tower, the Chaos Lord, the ancient god of discord, the Neverness, holes that lead to the past and future that never was and never will be, a mountain that moans, and a whole assortment of twisted foes before the final challenge: to dive into a shimmering lake-to another dimension, and fight his shadow twin in a duel for the Moonstone and human's salvation. From the magnificent flying Ethetron to a terrible lizard that turns those who look at it into stone to the mysterious Room of the Mirrors, you will be amazed by the depth and magnificence of Joe Dever's work. Despite it's HTF status, Beyond the Nightmare Gate and, to a lesser extent, its sequel and predecessors, are definitely worth your time and money

Wonderful Book
Wolf, Tony (1988. I'll Be Home Befor Midnign and I Won't Get Pregnant: Stories of Adolescence. Illustrations Brance Menk, New York, Vintage Books.

It is easy to take this book lightly. The cartoons in every chapter make it deceivingly simple. However, the stories are poignant and powerful. It deals with the tough issues many teens face with humar and accuracy. Everything from Anorexia to Drug use is discussed. Physical and emotional changes teens experience are also discussed. Although the text tooks like an easy read, the stories give you something to think about. For example, many young girls experience problems with body image. The books has a story about a girl who deals with this problem. When the story starts out, the girl is healthy. She is putting away the toys of childhood. A particular toy, a doll, tells the girl she needs to loose a few pounds. The girl has a normal body. In the drawings, it is depicted with two line for her body. Throughout the story, the lines for her body grow closer together. Soon, she is nothing more than a stick-figure drawing. During the story, the doll keeps telling the girl she only needs to loose a few more pounds. These are the types of images that young teen girls see and hear everyday. This story gives the reader the perspective of a young teen who faces this problem. The book holds no punches in dealing with the realities of growing-up. The illustrations which follow each chapter give the reader a better image with which to see events through the eyes of an adolescence. The book is easy to relate to and would be good for parents of teens or those who work with teens to read to help them remember what it was like to be a teenager.

UN GRAN OLVIDADO
Me sorprende que otros lectores no encuentren a este libro al mismo nivel que el numero 2 o al 4. En mi opinion el mayor exito de Dever es la densidad del entorno y como te envuelve en el. Cosa que para mi consigue en este y en los otros dos mencionados.
