1.		Characters, Emotion & Viewpoint: Techniques and Exercises for Crafting Dynamic Characters and Effective Viewpoints (Write Great Fiction) from Writers Digest Books Price: $7.81 Customer Review: the book is written in a style that was easily understood, making it more applicable and worth every penny. There's a lot to learn to become proficient in our craft, and this book helps tremendously. I highly recommend the entire series!	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		Steal Across the Sky from Tor Books Price: $5.87 Customer Review: Nancy Kress has once again written a piece of fascinating science fiction. "What if?" is one of my favorite questions, and it's the question this book asks. It's a questions she's asked before, and once again she's drawn us in as she considers it. I won't disclose the second half of the "What... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


3.		Elements of Writing Fiction - Beginnings, Middles & Ends (Elements of Fiction Writing) from Writers Digest Books Price: $4.27 Customer Review: This is, without a doubt, the best book on the nuts & bolts of writing fiction I've read (and I've read quite a few.) Ms. Kress lays out the kinds of techniques for organizing stories that I've been looking for everywhere. If I were going to teach a class on creative writing, this would be the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Beggars in Spain from Eos Price: $4.98 Customer Review: The first section of Nancy Kress's four-part novel, "Leisha," is a revision of the 1991 award-winning novella, which like the novel was entitled "Beggars of Spain." In spite of its brevity, the novella was nearly perfect in concept and execution, with a finale that is both open-ended and pleasing (a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		Dynamic Characters from Writers Digest Books Price: $4.18 Customer Review: I bought this copy over a year ago and it's already battered, dirty, and full of my side notes and highlighter markings. I'm a mediocre writer, so I thought I would give this book a try. It is really helpful. It's full of advice on developing your characters and that both experienced and... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Act One - Nebula Nominee 2009 from Phoenix Pick Price: $5.99	Click here for more information


7.		Beaker's Dozen from Tor Books Price: $22.91 Customer Review: This is Nancy Kress at her best: exploring various styles and possibilities in short stories, the only constant her keen and insightful writing... There is everything here, from fantasy to biotech to futurism to... well - reality slightly affected by paranormal - "Phone Repairs". And, incidentally,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Far Horizons:: All New Tales From The Greatest Worlds Of Science Fiction from Eos Price: $1.99 Customer Review: I agree with the other reviewers- very uneven. My summary for what its worth: Old Music and the Slave Women- 3.5 of 5. Well written but not particularly compelling. A Separate War- 3 of 5. Mildly amusing but that's it. I didn't particularly like the book either. Writing and themes... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		Write Great Fiction series (CD) from Writers Digest Books Price: $31.49 Customer Review: I bought this CD and have used it when taking the Online Workshops at Writer's Digest. You get all five books in the Write Great Fiction Series for one great price. The books are written and presented in a way that keeps your interest and are easily understood. A valuable tool for your Writing... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Probability Space (The Probability Trilogy) from Tor Science Fiction Price: $10.00 Customer Review: I was sorry to see it end, and wish Ms. Kress would write another so we know what happens to our favorite couple on Mars, not to mention the famous physicist learning to cope with a headstrong fourteen-year-old daughter. The action really got intense there near the end, and was very... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


11.		Dogs from Tachyon Publications Price: $8.38 Customer Review: Nice read in this page turner. The heroine is heroic and the hero is a nice guy. The dogs are OK too. Much better than the average Sci-Fi book.	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		The Year's Best Science Fiction & Fantasy, 2010 Edition from Prime Books Price: $13.46	Click here for more information


13.		Nebula Awards Showcase 2003 from Roc Trade Price: $12.00 Customer Review: A selection from the awards of that year. This includes a short introduction by the editor, and also a complete list of the awards. The last part is an excerpt from the novel by Asaro, the first part, apparently, not the novel itself. The problem might be the stories themselves, the Park and... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


14.		Beggars Ride (Beggars Trilogy (also known as Sleepless Trilogy)) from Tor Science Fiction Price: $21.95 Customer Review: wow. very disappointing. I love books, most of my furniture is bookcases, and I read everything dozens of times. I have had these three Nancy Kress books for several years, but have only read them two or three times. I had forgotten why, until I read them again this week. Now I remember. The... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


15.		Beggars and Choosers (Beggars Trilogy (also known as Sleepless Trilogy)) from Tor Science Fiction Price: $62.90 Customer Review: BEGGARS & CHOOSERS is more disturbing than satisfying, as perhaps the middle book of a trilogy should be. I'm looking forward to the conclusion in BEGGARS RIDE. First person narration is delivered from several characters, mostly Livers. The only one returning from BEGGARS IN SPAIN is the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


16.		Probability Sun (The Probability Trilogy) from Tor Science Fiction Price: $10.95 Customer Review: After having read some of Nancy Kress's short fiction as well as Beggars in Spain and Probability Moon, I was expecting substantially more from this novel than I found. What made Probability Moon an interesting read was the unique alien culture it depicted. The characters may have been two... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


17.		Beginnings, Middles and Ends (Elements of Fiction Writing) from Writers Digest Books Price: $6.95 Customer Review: Thi book is great for people who want to write a story. It puts the book into areas that help you write your story. As well as, exercises to help you write your story also. I am using this book to help my daughter to write a novel. I have bought other books in this series and it has exercises at the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


18.		Nothing Human from Golden Gryphon Press Price: $12.75 Customer Review: I thought this book did everything a good sci-fi book did -- discuss issues and ideas that are important today. Maybe I'm just simple minded, but I thought this book was a lot better then the overall "acceptable" reviews that I've read here. I also recommend another book (trilogy, actually)... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


19.		Trinity and Other Stories from Ace Books Customer Review: A Science Fiction Story Clone twin teleological trance test. 4.5 out of 5	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


20.	[no image]	Probability Moon from Forge Price: $10.17 Customer Review: To begin, I'm an avid science fiction reader. This book, however, barely qualifies as science fiction. The author's lack of scientific knowledge is painfully apparent...making this book a work (in the loosest sense of the word) of pure fiction. This is, definitely, the worst science fiction book... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
