Worthy follow up.......2007-08-26
This is the second of Maupin's 'Tales of the City' books. It's like a soap opera, in that the book is a continuation into the trials and tribulations in the lives of the residents at 28 Barbary Lane.
This book delves into the American psyche of the late 1970's. Maupin does a great job of interweaving social issues into the characters' lives without getting preachy. For example, he has Michael's parents becoming anti-gay crusaders. I understand that Maupin became less subtle about his political agendas in later books, but in this one he does a good job of it.
Maupin does a masterful job in making all of the characters believable and sympathetic (with the exception of Beauchamp Day). They are all people that you and I know. The dialogue is a little snappier than most normal people can manage, but is still engaging and witty.
Then, there are the inevitable surprise twists that Maupin puts in that make these books such fun to read. I won't give any of them away, but they are good.
This is a fine second effort for Maupin.
Every bit as good as the Tales of the City.......2007-06-28
More Tales of the City maintains the standard set in the first book as the coincidences become more bizarre and the characters reveal more of their secrets. Of the latter Anna Madrigal has some real shockers; but there is a shock of a different kind in store for the adorable Michael Tolliver; and yet another for the insufferable Beauchamp. But before that Mary Anne and the Michael go on a cruise together and neither returns empty handed. We meet some new characters and some of the old ones play a bigger part.
Very funny and entertaining, with some amateur sleuthing which involves several of the residents of 28 Barbary Lane keeping us guessing to the end, this is a most enjoyable read.
Even Lombard Street isn't this convoluted.......2006-05-05
More Tales of the City beat Candace Bushnell's Sex and the City with its gaylit/chick lit twist on the menagerie of personalities at Barbery Lane. This sequel reveals more of the mysterious Mrs. Madrigal than ever with twists and turns only possible in San Francisco. You WILL laugh yourself to tears!
Continuation with more surprise twists and intrigue.......2005-03-04
After I finished reading the first novel at a friend's insistence, I was so hooked by the end of it that I got the Omnibus of the first three novels and one of the final three novels so I can continue reading the saga of the residents of Barbary Lane.
The first half of this novel, I thought was better than the first novel, as I simply couldn't put the book down. I had to read "just one more" chapter, and since most chapters ran no more than three pages or so, one chapter turned into several chapters. The different story lines are interspersed, and I found that my curiosity switched from one to another as I read more. Some story lines didn't interest me (regarding DeeDee Halcyon Day and her mother), while others had me hooked (Mona Ramsey's vacation to a ranch in Nevada where she has an amazing coincidence that reveals a deeper connection between her and another character). I also enjoyed reading about Mary Ann Singleton and Michael Mouse Tolliver as they grow closer in friendship and take a cruise to Mexico together. On the cruise, they meet a man whom they don't know if he'd go for Mary Ann or Michael, and some of the wit apparent in the dialogue is laugh out loud funny. The plot moves towards a strange, and a bit far fetched, conclusion built around a mystery of one man's amnesia and the bits he remembers and some odd personality quirks. I didn't find their discovery to be realistic, but its not enough to take away from my enjoyment of the novel. Overall, I still like the first one better, but I'm really glad to see a continuation of these characters. The ending hints of things to come, so of course I plan to read the rest of the series in the next month or two. Like the first novel, the dialogue is simply amazing, full of wit, and laugh out loud funny. Armistead Maupin is a conversational genius and knows how to hook a reader. My only critique would be more time spent on descriptions, offering more details and observations. These novels read like a screenplay, but that's probably a big reason why this novel is so easy to read through. I can't wait to read what will happen next!
A solid and entertaining sequel.......2003-04-18
Ever notice you read a lot faster pre-college than postgraduate school? I suspect that has to do with the kind of books being read. This book definitely falls into the category of those fast reading books. It is unlikely you will go away with the feeling of utter awe, but you will be extremely entertained. Maupin maintains the momentum he built from Tales of the City, as his character continue to grow in this story. If you liked the first book, this is a worthy sequel. The lives of the occupants of 28 Barbary Lane goes on, and it feels as if you never left them. Okay, so the way things unfold is little preposterous, but most likely you won't care and you will just go with the flow. I did, and I thoroughly enjoyed the ride.
And if you ever visit San Francisco, you will probably be seized with the urge to go visit at least one place mentioned in this book.

The Show Must Go On..........2006-01-01
In showbiz, there are always little glitches that occur behind the scenes that are fixed in the nick of time. In SHOWTIME, number nine of Disney's ongoing book series based on the TV show, That's So Raven, that's exactly what happens.
In part one, Raven's dad is scheduled to have an in-house appearance on the news, featuring his awesome culinary skills. Problem is, Cory's new friend from Florida tried to hypnotize Raven and Chelsea, which of course didn't work, but did manage to unknowingly hypnotize Mr. Baxter. The house is in an uproar trying to figure out the word to undo the damage before the news crew gets there. Unfortunately, that doesn't happen, and Raven and her mom are stuck with trying to work things out. As things start to get fishy, Cory manages to contact his friend and say the magic word. Whew! What a way to spend a couple of minutes, but it was worth it - Mr. Baxter got a permanent slot on the cooking segment of the news show.
Part two features Raven and Chelsea as new reporters for the school paper. Although Raven doesn't' want to do sports, she receives a vision that lands her a front-page story. As a reward, the advisor grants Raven and Chelsea two tickets to the hottest concert in town. Unfortunately, the star reporter, Serena, reminds the advisor that Raven will miss the basketball game, and that is more important to the school paper. Raven gets a vision and knows what's going to happen. The biggest issue is, Serena overhears Raven telling Chelsea what will happen, and also her blunder of mentioning that she's psychic. With an evil reporter girl holding this piece of information over her head, how will Raven manage to unravel her vision?
This book is very accurate in its similarities to the episodes on television. Packed with laughter and full color pictures, this is a recap that you don't want to miss! This is a great addition to any bookshelf, and a great way to promote reading.

Finally - a clear guide to mane braiding!.......2005-09-04
I searched all over the internet and interviewed every draft owner I could find about how to prepare for my halter class...I found that everyone said something different. This book was great - very basic, but perfect for the beginner (like me). The mane rolling/tail knotting section was especially helpful - we took first place in our yearling halter class at the fair!!

Excellent book.......2006-11-10
These piano arrangements sound great and my students love to play them. The duet parts for the teacher make it sound even better, and help the student to play in time. I've never seen my students so motivated to learn about classical music and the composers. They really enjoy this series.

Book Description
Is Mel Gibson's blockbuster movie inspired by God? Have silver-screen portrayals of biblical epics become the new "silver bullet" of evangelism? Although Showtime for the Sheep? addresses these questions with eye-opening insights, it is far more than a revelation regarding The Passion of the Christ. This block-busting little book addresses several key trends that are storming the church in this media-mesmerized millenium:
- The increasing use of entertainment and amusement to teach the Word of God -- and expanding efforts to make the Gospel message more "seeker-sensitive"
- The advancing cause of ecumenism over evangelism -- and the resultant confusion between Catholicism and biblical Christianity
- The multiplying effect of doctrinal error through increasingly popular paraphrased "Bibles" -- and the proliferation of visual interpretations of Scripture

Anti-Catholic Protestant Bias.........2007-03-25
First off for all those who don't know much about christianity, The Catholic Church was the FIRST christian church is.. This anti-catholic polenmic mumbo jumbo has been refuted and answered many times.. and if you really watch the movie it is a very VERY accurate portrayal of the crucifiction(Jesus in the garden, Judas, Pilate, Judas suicide, the roman spear, the temple splitting in to".. Remember there are many different version of the bible, KJV, NASB, NAB, WEB, ASV, WEB, etc.. and while the word for word language may be different at times the focal point is all still the same..it is just the same for this movie.. there seriously has never been such a powerful movie as the Passion.. while most other movies on Christ are jumpy happy baptist/protestantish non-realistic type portrayals this is actually the closest to what actually happened back then(the Romans were very brutal)
I find it funny that protestants consider themselves 'Saved" even if they were formally Catholic.. Where as the exact opposite is true, all they have done is broken away from the original church and gone in the way of protestant division.. Protestant churches didn't exist till 1500 YEARS AFTER CHRIST, now why in the world would someone want to follow a errored church by some excomminicated priest 1500 years later after christ is beyond me, and yet these people think they have the "truth"?? that all of a sudden God was doing everything wrong for 1500 hundred years and Martin Luther has the theological answer to all??
Its funny how the Passion has been ridiculed and persecuted by both Jews and now Protestants. As Jesus said the Church would be a persecuted Church. And what church today is more bagged on and persecuted than the Catholic Church.. We Catholics are truely the real Christians because we existed long before any of these know it all protestants with their gymnasium "barn-like" church gatherings and their fat white trash wig wearing pastors..
An important, thought provoking book.......2007-02-12
Although there are some who may accuse the author of this book of "Catholic bashing", the truth is that he himself used to be a Catholic for many years until some loving evangelicals lead him to the true Jesus Christ. It is sad that many of today's evangelical leaders do not have that same love in their hearts for Catholics. This thought provoking book not only addresses Mel Gibson's movie, "The Passion of The Christ" - it actually addresses several key trends. I have found it to be an eye-opener, and the Lord has used it to confirm some convictions which I already had (Yet which I have tried to ignore) to be true. It is also written in a very loving spirit, and I think that the author is very fair to Mel Gibson in this book.
It is A Roman Catholic Movie.......2006-02-03
The Passion of the Christ is a Roman Catholic Movie. The movie depicts Jesus trial and crucifiction that is consistent with the Catholic churches teaching. Mel Gibson expanded on the story of Jesus path to the cross beyound what is written in the Gospels or elsewhere in scripture. These sources may well be acceptable as reliable within the Roman Catholic Church and not in most Evangelical churches. This is an accurate portrayal of the movie. The fact T.A. McMahon does not like the fact he does not like certain Protestant churches speak highly of the movie without expressing pause to the Catholic perspective of the movie does not make the author of this book intolerant. I believe Protestant ministers could advocate their parishners to to see the movie and yet express disagreement to the Catholic presentation of the Gospel.
Mary the Mother of Jesus is the second most presented character in the Passion of Christ. Reading the Gospel in either Protestant or Roman Catholic translations would give the reader the same perspective. No where in the Gospel does Mary follow Jesus from trial to trial, present at the scourging of Jesus, whipping up the blood afterwards, telling Jesus afterwards she wished it was her instead, and following Jesus as he carries the cross. This might give the watcher the idea Mary was some sort of co-redeemer. The portrayal of demons and the shroud of Turin are all part of the Catholic tradition, but extra biblical.
T.A. McMahon the author has the problem with any image being made of Jesus Christ. He therefore has a problem with any movie that has an actor portraying Jesus. No matter how consistent the movie is with scripture. He makes a very good argument for this in his book. Since I watched the Movie three times I do disagree with this point. But I do believe protestant ministers and their churches can encourage their flock to see the movie, but only if they are willing to teach where the movie goes against scripture. I believe the book is worth reading.
a mixed review here, although I'm concerned about the negative points in the book.......2005-09-17
I have mixed feelings about entertainment for the masses, as good entertainment can move people to new heights and new awareness, but it also is able to lull thinking (and in this case, religious) people into getting all their truth from entertainment. But, before the author is too critical, he ought to remind himself that, as powerful a critical realm as film entertainment is, if good people do not finance their own movies, get their own scriptwriters, cast their own crews, hire their own film music composers, then we are going to be left with movies that are irrespective and downright hostile to religious ideas. After all, we get movies according to whoever is producing them, which, for the most part, is the irreligious Hollywood community. The film industry has for too long been neglected by the church, as well as the religious community at large, and Mel Gibson took the bold step of possible ostracization by his own film community to put his talent and business acumen into this.
Many of the reviews here have stated that this book is none other than a anti-Catholic polemic. On that basis, I would have to agree for the most part. However, Mel Gibson is Catholic, and what does the author really expect? If the author wants entertainment to totally represent his religious viewpoint, then spend the $25 million to advance his own film and get it destributed. In fact, I think a lot of the anti-Catholic criticism against Mel Gibson is really unfair, because Gibson tried very hard to leave out a lot of Catholic beliefs, such as Mariology, so that all orthodox Christians could enjoy it, which is one reason so many non-Catholic evangelicals and other conservative Christians approved of the movie (the author is critical of these evangelicals for endorsing the movie). And, just in case anybody questions it, I am not Catholic nor was I ever raised Catholic. I believe that the other reviews here are from Catholics who are chagrined about a critical work from an evangelical being so anti-Catholic about this movie.
The criticism from secular and reform Jews against this movie were so great, you would have thought it was the worst film to have been shown, whipping up hatred from here to eternity, and this Jewish criticism was ad nauseam (some of the Jews who criticized this movie ought to remember how tiresome their rhetoric has become and no, I am not insensitive to some of the suffering they have had to endure, such as the Holocaust). If some of the Jews want to show a film how the crucifixion of Jesus has stirred up anti-Semitism, then they should shell out their own $25 million, make their own film, and distribute it themselves instead of constantly whining and complaining. In this case, though, the author is a host of The Berean Call, a very well-known conservative Christian organization.
McMahon, as well as Dave Hunt, who writes a small approval of the book, as both Arminians, which, by the way, I am also. Therefore, I am not antagonistic toward Dave Hunt's books, and have very much enjoyed reading them. Therefore, I believe I'm being very fair and objective, because most of the vicious criticism against Dave Hunt have come from other Protestant Christian writers and leaders, who are Calvinist. However, since Calvinists far outnumber Arminians in Protestantism, this was to be expected. Calvinists, except for Presbyterians and a few others, begrudgingly admit that Arminians may have a different view of God's sovereignty vs. free will, but that their viewpoint doesn't dismiss calling them brethren in Christ.
While some of the above paragrah probably went over many readers' heads, I want everybody to be assured that the review I have given is very fair. No, I am not Catholic nor ever have been, and yet, I believe that this book was very much an anti-Catholic polemic. I also belong with Dave Hunt and McMahon on the Arminian side of the aisle.
I do believe, however, that this book is worth reading, there are some good points to be made about being infuenced too much by entertainment and not making up our own mind as to what is right and what doesn't line up with truth, not only with this movie, but with entertainment in general. This book is rather small, and doesn't take much time to read, but it is the first non-Jewish essay against the Passion film that I have seen, which also makes it worth reading.
Do you hate catholics....then read this book!.......2005-09-16
This book lures you in by suggesting it is about biblical inaccuracies in the movie "The Passion Of the Christ". By Chapter 3 you realize it is nothing more than a tool for T.A McMahon to bash catholics, the catholic faith, and people of faith in general.
Mr. McMahon's use of bible quotes is often misleading. He sews together several sentences from different chapters of the bible to make whatever point he's trying to make, while at the same time completely missing the point of the 'entire' bible verse he starts to quote.
By chapter nine I found myself saying "Ok! I get it..you hate catholics", and quite frankly didn't want to spend another chapter listening to him rail on about why catholicism is the world's worst evil. But, I finished the book.
In short, his points are poorly thought through, his use of the bible is, at best, troublesome if not out right inaccurate, and his anger towards those who choose not to follow his ministry bleeds through each and every paragraph.
Description
Forever Showtime chronicles the life of Pistol Pete Maravich, the legendary college basketball player for Louisiana State University and NBA star for the Atlanta Hawks, the former New Orleans Jazz and the Boston Celtics. A prolific scorer at every level, he was known for his dazzling ball-handling skills and exciting passes, making him a man ahead of his time, and one who earned a spot on the NBA's 50 Greatest Players List.
Pete's father, Press Maravich, a former professional basketball player, was consumed by his desire to make his son one of the best to ever play the game. As his coach at LSU, Press demanded that Pete remain singularly focused on basketball. Success on the court followed, but the powerful drive to succeed took its toll on the family, pushing Pete's mother to suicide and Pete himself to alcohol abuse before he found serenity as a born-again Christian. He died at age 40 of a congenital heart defect while playing a game of pickup basketball.
Based on years of research and extensive interviews with those close to him, Forever Showtime examines in equal measure Pete Maravich's rousing success on the hardwood and his turbulent life off it. Phil Berger casts into sharp profile one of basketball's early legends, a man whose career presaged the age of the basketball superstar.

The Pistol.......2002-05-30
A good story of the basketball player's career.
I learned a lot about a player who I only knew
from the movie "The Pistol".
A Great Read For True Basketball Fans!.......2001-12-05
I really enjoyed this book about such a legendary player...a man who was truly ahead of his time. The story of his life and his relationship with his father adds such richness to our understanding of such a unique and innovative basketball phenomenon. His story (and his Dad's) takes us through the history of basketball up to the Jordan era. And while today's game may be bringing in more money and creating more millionaires I feel fortunate to be one of those who misses and cherishes the previous era. Pete Maravich was and still is the most fascinating ballhandler of all-time. He had to create all this without any role models which is mindboggling in itself. I hope that more people get a chance to read and enjoy this book. The author did a fabulous job of writing and the title is so appropriate.....Pete Maravich will be forever showtime.
Greatest Showman Ever?.......2001-05-16
Is Pistol Pete Maravich the greatest showman ever? Some may disagree, saying that Bob Cousy and Magic Johnson were better. But then again, they both were on some of the best teams in the NBA history, surrounded by players like Bill Russel and Kareem Abdual-Jabar, and Pete? On the Atlanta Hawks with virtually no supporting cast! But that's besides the point. In this book, you see the life of a man who truely loved the game of basketball. Being in the 10th grade and practicing 6-10 hours a day. Finally making it to the NBA, after breaking all college scoring records, and then signed the first million dollar contract. And wasn't happy! What? It wasn't until he retired that he found the true satisfaction, the Lord Jesus Christ. The Pistol's life was changed, and changed those around him. But after dying of a sudden heart attack left this world with nothing but memories. Pete lives on today! The book is great! If you are remotely interested in basketball, read this book and you'll love the sport. READ IT!
A Winner.......2001-05-10
Phil Berger does a solid job here on Pistol Pete.Pistol was something else.He did things on the court that still haven't been done since.He was a Bit ahead of His time.if He were out now He would be in another world all together.a solid read here.
A review or a Fantastic book on "The Pistol" by Rick Penrod.......2001-03-02
This is a fantastic recollection of the greatest scorer and ball-handler in the history of the game. Phil Berger captivates his readers with new insights and stories about Pete and his father, Press, since Pete's ill-fated death in 1988. I have every book written on Pete Maravich that to my knowledge has been published. Great book Mr. Berger! ....
