Books, though the word still strikes us as paperbacks and hardcovers, are diversified into many formats such as audio cassette, audio CD, PDF… E-books can be cost-efficient and portable, while paperbacks bring nostalgia for schooldays and are easy to handle. After all is said and done, either is indispensable nowadays. In addition to in-store purchase, for bookworms and bibliophiles, Amazon. com may be the destination of collecting books of whichever formats available.



Amazon Online Bookstore Guide

We are indeed reading less and less. Reading brings imagination. With books read reduced, imagination eludes us gradually because everything is already done for us and thus requiring no further thoughts. Think about it. When we read, we picture stories in the books in our mind. But when we watch TVs, play computer games, or hang out with our mobile phones, we barely think deeper but take and receive. Perhaps start reading books again can help with that.



Amazon online bookstore is like a book warehouse with a great capacity. When you browse www. amazon. com/books, all recommended books of the day are presented on the page. The rolling images tell you which book or book-reading device is trending. You can either scroll down to explore best sellers, popular book awards, or move up to the header navigation and choose from New Releases, Best Sellers, The New York Times Best Sellers, Children’s Books, Textbooks, Sell Your Books, and Best Books of the Month.



The side navigation on the left will help filter out your books more easily. Select a time period from New Releases, a category from Department, a Format, an Author, a Book Series, a Language, Free Super Saver Shipping, International Shipping, Award Winners, Promotion, an Average Customer Review, Condition, or Availability. Your search result will be refined according to your selection. The side navigation also enables you to access Popular Features, Connect with Us through blog, Facebook, Twitter and more, Amazon Kindle, Book Bargains, Featured Stores, Special Formats and International Shopping.

I found this boook to be extremely informative with facts of on-line gaming and an entertaining easy to read book. As a gaming person I have often wondered about the concept of a guild and the true role of a member. The visions of one person has become a guild of many. This vision continues to expand and prosper.

I found this book to be a very enjoyable read. It shows us gaming history from the very beginning all the way up till present and shows us how one truly successful Guild has managed to not only survive but to thrive. It's a great read and has loads of interesting stories that even the non-gamer would enjoy. Anyone interested in fantasy or gaming would very much enjoy this book.

A friend insisted that I read this, someone who's recommendations I take seriously. I was skeptical, naturally. He found a sample chapter and forced it on me. The story got its hooks in me within the first 30 pages, and after that it flowed, it positively galloped.



As a contemporary author in the MMO genre, for my money, Sean Stalzer is the best

This book really helped me to understand what it really takes to become a guild and the amount of work needing to be put into it.



Comment | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)(Report this)



I'm probably a bit older than the average gamer, and am not a high-intensity, heavily-committed player. But reading this book was eye-opening. It richened my appreciation and understanding of the online game world immensely! Anyone who spends any time at all with MMORPG's must read this book to get an inside look at the gaming world and the complexities of the guilds that are so much a part of it.
