About this deal

Mentally and emotionally exhausted, Brian leaves the bodies in the woods for the walkers, and contemplates what he will do now that he is alone. This is very good, probably a 5 star, but.... with reservations. The author writes well but... a couple of things have left a bad taste in my mouth. "Wealthy Jews" and "addicts made their choice". Sometimes society's prejudices are so ingrained that although the book has obviously had an editor with an eye to the present woke agenda, they just aren't noticed. Or they don't matter because certain kinds of prejudice are absolutely acceptable. Robert Kirkman discussing the general inception of the plot of Rise of the Governor with comparisons to the graphic novels. [2]

I find the whole story very patronising and I cannot decide if I am prepared to spend another 8 or 9 hours listening to it. Why? I had the audio version of the book , the narration is done by the author herself and it was just ok. I think the physical book would be a better choice. ELYOT, Sir Thomas [1490?-1546]. "The Boke Named The Governour By Sir Thomas [1490?-1546] ELYOT - Used Books - 1557 - from D & E Lake Ltd. (ABAC, ILAB) and". Biblio.com . Retrieved 2012-12-20. I felt for Norman Jones, firstly I felt fear but then sorrow at how he was misunderstood. Kelly who made such a bad decision & changed his life for the worse.Frake’s telling of an incident involving a prison visitor left me stunned - I’m aware that drug mules conceal drugs inside their bodies, but what they find up one woman’s bottom beggars belief! His writing draws extensively from his experiences in the United States Army, where he served two combat tours in Iraq and was awarded the Bronze Star, Combat Action Badge and Presidential Unit Citation.

On television, the character is portrayed by British actor David Morrissey. Glen Mazzara, when asked about the character's direction for season 3 of the show, described the Governor as a narcissist who sees himself as the future savior of civilization and is willing to resort to the most extreme of measures to achieve his ultimate goal. [10] I don't even get it. Is it a "look at her, she thinks her poop doesn't stink" or is it literally a comment on the smell of her vaginal secretions?The title sounds like a Martina Cole novel but it is far from that. It is the story of one persons life and dedication to the Prison Service. I don’t often read true life crime / memoirs but I did enjoy this one. This is the writer’s own story from being a rookie prison officer to becoming a Governor in Wandsworth Prison and her subsequent retirement. Please be aware that there are some graphic descriptions. This latest Honor Harrington novel brings the saga to another crucial turning point. . . . Readers may feel confident that they will be Honored many more times and enjoy it every time.”— Booklist
