L. J. Smith
HarperTeen, 2008
Still Love The Series
I absolutely loved this series when I was a kid and I was thrilled to see that the books were being re-printed. I slightly wished that they would have swapped out a couple of words or phrases that really dated the books - like references to clothing styles, music, ...

Jay D Adkisson
iUniverse, Inc., 2006
Great Intro to Captives
As an advisor, I've had clients repeatedly ask me about captive insurance companies but I didn't know much more about them and simply referred them to people like Jay who dealt with them. They always seemed like a "black box" planning technique where the secrets of how ...

He Came to Set the Captives Free
Rebecca Brown
Whitaker House, 1992
a brutal reality check
This book is bone-chilling. I believe every word of it. Scripture says in 1 Peter 5:8: "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walketh about as a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour". If we could only get a mere passing glimpse of how ...

Another peal to truth against totalitarian, war apologist confused
