Story4.5 out of 5 stars 19
When penniless businessman Mr Bedford retreats to the Kent coast to write a play, he meets by chance the brilliant Dr Cavor, an absent-minded scientist on the brink of developing a material that blocks gravity. Cavor soon succeeds in his experiments, only to tell a stunned Bedford the invention makes possible one of the oldest dreams of humanity: a journey to the moon. With Bedford motivated by money, and Cavor by the desire for knowledge, the two embark on the expedition. But neither are prepared for what they find.

Story4 out of 5 stars 71
Family drama is bad enough without adding magic and human sacrifice. Ten years ago, Paxton Locke's mother killed his father in a mysterious ritual that - thankfully - went incomplete. Now, Paxton makes his living as a roving paranormal investigator, banishing spirits while Mother languishes in jail. When a terrified ghost warns him of a dangerous, newly freed entity, Paxton faces a fight far beyond simple exorcism. In a battle for his very soul, will he be able to endure - or simply fade away?

Once, in a theater long ago and far, far away, young audiences who watched the nostalgic space epic of yesteryear, known then only as Star Wars, were duly enthralled. So much goodwill, so much affection, and so much love has rarely been lavished on any franchise. So much money from so many eager fans was never so readily available. Yet, with one potent death star-like blast of mind-breakingly awful filmmaking, the Disney Corporation has managed to alienate that goodwill, spurn that affection, and lose that money.

Poorly Written Female Characters
- By A. Christiano on 05-02-13
By: Fiona McIntosh
Publisher's Summary
For four years, Princess Aurora of Rhone - Rose, to her friends - has searched the world for a way to break the curse placed on her by Magdalina, the wicked ruler of the fairies at war with her kingdom.
Under the curse, Rose is doomed to die on her 18th birthday after pricking her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel. And time is running out.
On the eve of her 17th birthday, Rose makes the journey home with her friends - Theo, a priest with a penchant for revenge; Mary, a young and talented fairy; and Ethan and Sophia, siblings with a troubled past - as pressure from her father King Stefanos leaves her with two equally unsatisfying options: Abdicate the throne, or get married.

A great Sleeping Beauty re-telling
I read the novel and decided to check out the audio version and I am glad I did. Listening to it adds another dimension. If you like fairytale re-tellings then this is a great one to read or listen to. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
