Flashback: February 2008

A look at what I reviewed in February 2008:

Ancient Inca: Archaeology Unlocks the Secrets of Inca’s Past by Beth Gruber; Johan Reinhard, Consultant and Ancient Greece: Archaeology Unlocks the Secret’s of Greece’s Past by Marni McGee, Michael Shanks, Consultant. From my review: “This series explains archaeology, the process, the finds, how there is always something new to be discovered or a new interpretation to be made. I like the photos; I like the time lines; I love the resources. And I like how there is something unique about each book.”

Adventures in Oz (founded on and continuing the famous Oz stories by L. Frank Baum) by Eric Shanower. From my review: “Five stories continue the adventures of Dorothy & Co in Oz. And this is Baum’s Oz, not [Judy] Garland’s. Fans of the movie may be both disappointed and puzzled; fans of the book will love it.”
