"Greatest novel ever written" Time Magazine

"The best [novel] ever written". William Faulkner

“Possibly the greatest novel ever written. Tolstoy captures the rollercoaster arc of Anna's passion for Vronsky, and shows us the impossibility of her love ever being a match for what she's lost." Esther Freud

“What stuck with me about the novel was that fated love affair where that most beautiful of women, Anna Karenina, is driven by passion into the arms of that most engaging of heroes, Vronsky.” Gillian Slovo

“The best book of all time” Newsweek

‘If the world could write by itself, it would write like Tolstoy” Isaac Babel

"Not just a great novel, it's a wonderful read. . . A thrilling, funny and heartbreaking story of love, war and family life," Andrew Davies

“Alive, and very much so … That is how it feels to be caught up in the bright sweep of Tolstoy’s “War and Peace”: alive, and very much so. It is to succumb to the contagion of vitality. As his characters infect each other with the high temperature of their existence, so they infect us.” James Wood, New Yorker

“Tolstoy's epic novel - the touchstone of 19th-century realism - sweeps from the glittering salons of Russian high society to the grisly horrors of the Napoleonic battlefields . . . Its everyman hero, Pierre blunders along, struggling to find meaning in his life, and each of the dozen or so central characters battle their own demons, searching for truth and peace. Their struggles are timeless, as is the unforgettable love story at its heart.” The Guardian 1000 novels everyone must read

-Linked table of contents to reach your chapter quickly

“Great book--a fun tale of Professor Liedenbrock's determined attempt to reach the center of the earth, as narrated by his nephew in often-amusing language. Plenty of traces of geology, anthropology, and archaeology, but without getting bogged down. It was a surprisingly easy and fun read, and descriptive too. Good adventure story!” Qt

“Journey to the Center of the Earth is a rousing good adventure, however, and an excellent example of early science fiction. Jules Verne was an amazing pioneer with an appealing style that is still effective one hundred and fifty years later.“ Bookworm Blather

“A great story filled with adventure and a lot of science - some made up, but much of it rooted in the truth.” Eclectic Indulgence

“His descriptions evoke the loneliness and eerie silence of the caves they travel through, the desperation they experience with losing equipment or food, the constant worry of how to get back out, and the underground sea with its wondrous creatures never cease to amaze. It is truly an extraordinary voyage . . . An absolute classic. I am now a fan. 9.5/10” Slow Reader

JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH is one of the most exciting and fascinating science fiction adventures of all time. Presented in a beautiful edition to mark the 150th anniversary of this classic, specially designed for kindle, this is Verne’s masterpiece which will stay with you forever.

“To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.” Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Crime and Punishment

“Crime and Punishment features an immensely engaging blend of intrigue; philosophy; political, social, moral and religious commentary, that all thread together to create a masterpiece of literature that captures the deep, raw core of the human condition when it is at its most gruesome and vulnerable. “ S. Penkevich 

“His themes were madness, sin, redemption through Christ, prostitution, madness, sin, the importance of knowing your place, suicide, madness, sin and the love of a good woman. And madness. And sin.” The Guardian

“Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment is a shockingly intimate tale of a murder and a murderer. Raskolnikov is a man on the brink of madness as he plots and carries out a grisly killing. Although he evades the police, Raskolnikov's dark deed weighs heavily on him.” Daily Lit

"One of the half-dozen greatest novels of the world." Upton Sinclair

“One of the 1000 novels everyone must read” The Guardian

“Let's say that I could choose a single book with the guarantee that every man, woman, and child would read it. . . . I would choose this one." Aubrey

“I still find this book the best book on the planet. The plot is incredible, and the characters are so real and varying in personalities. Because of this, LES MISÉRABLES is filled with some of the nicest and cruellest characters I have ever encountered in a book.” Lauren Beck

“Hugo's massive narrative follows the career of Jean Valjean, a convict, imprisoned for 19 years for stealing a loaf of bread to feed his family. On his release, he steals some silver candlesticks from a bishop, who forgives him. This act of kindness sets Valjean on the path of righteousness. He becomes a successful industrialist, mayor and family man — although always haunted by his criminal past.” John Sutherland

“This is without question one of the most beautifully written novels I've ever read. Jean Valjean is quite possibly the most complex and compelling character you will meet in a work of literature of this magnitude." Miriam
