William Goldman's remarkable career spans more than five decades, and his credentials run the gamut from bestselling novelist to Oscar-winning screenwriter to Hollywood raconteur. He's beloved by millions of readers as the author of the classic comic-romantic fantasy The Princess Bride. And he's notorious for creating the most harrowing visit to the dentist in literary and cinematic history--in one of the seminal thrillers of the twentieth century. . . . MARATHON MAN Tom "Babe" Levy is a runner in every sense: racing tirelessly toward his goals of athletic and academic excellence--and endlessly away from the specter of his famous father's scandal-driven suicide. But an unexpected visit from his beloved older brother will set in motion a chain of events that plunge Babe into a vortex of terror, treachery, and murder--and force him into a race for his life . . . and for the answer to the fateful question, "Is it safe?"Binding Type: Paperback

Great Start
Format: Hardcover
My 9 year old doesn’t like reading. When it’s time for him to read to us, this is his go to book. Chapter books are a bit intimidating for him. He is eager to read about Max and is wanting to ready without us asking. We are looking forward to book 2.

Not so great unless you are willing to accept a certain amount on faith.
Format: Paperback
Similar criticism to my review of the Black Holes book: "Starts off ok, but quickly loses you. I have an extensive science education and quickly got lost. This topic cannot be easily explained in a brief book - the author is forced to jump over certain building blocks, and that just leaves the reader confused. I think this book series is good, but maybe not for abstract science topics."

A fun read. Learned a lot.
Format: Kindle
I never expected to be able to understand Relativity or the more ethereal concepts of time. But Jenann brought them to my level. The language gets a bit flowery at times but I think that reflects that these ideas have a poetry of their own.
