Title: Mixing medicine and magic Product review: I happened upon the "Circle of Magic" quatrain in my local library after hearing the librarian mention that people who liked Harry Potter tended to enjoy these books as well. I enjoyed the whole initial concept of craft magics in the first few books and Pierce's generally excellent exploration of how the magics worked, independently and in concert. "Briar's Book" has a much more serious tone than the other books in the series: as a research biologist, I was very interested to read Pierce's portrayal of a large-scale laboratory with a highly focussed research project (really quite accurate!) and highlighting the messages of "Don't drop possibly biohazardous materials in the sewers" and "Wear several levels of protection when working with a known hazardous material" - perhaps not messages that her average-age reader will appreciate, but important nonetheless. Oh yeah - and the story and characters were excellent too. Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?

Title: It's odd and annoying. Product review: It's not what I expected, nor what I wanted. I figured the high marks from various sources would have made it a better bet. I subsequently purchased a tiny box heater made by Intertek for Duraflame that works infinitely better, for the same energy usage, not only to heat a room but to warm me when I sit next to it.This DeLonghi gradually heats a room but because it takes so long, it's difficult to tell what setting to keep it on. It has only one handle to try to move it around with, and when it's on it's too hot to touch, which makes moving it difficult and annoying. Then the feet collapse.

Title: So bad it deserves negative stars Product review: A large group of us watched this together, and were all simply appalled by it. We watched the director's cut first, and then went back and watched the theatrical ending (which was better, for the first time in my personal experience). This movie was so bad it has created a new catch phrase amongst my group of friends. We measure how awful something is by how badly it made us want to go back in time and hang ourselves with our own umbilical cord (if you've watched the director's cut, you'll know why we say this . . .). Do yourself a huge favor and use the 2 hours you'd otherwise waste on this film doing something useful, like taking a nap.

Title: Violence Murders Itself Product review: A good start, good atmosphere and pace, but the novel suffers from a surfeit of violence, the interest slows. Nothing subtle here. Like Elmore Leonard, but Elmore has more humor. Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
