A.J. Jacobs works as the editor at large at Esquire magazine and has carved his personal niche at becoming what he calls "a human guinea pig."

These great covers by Tom Grummet tell us most of what we need to know. Inside we get Hulk & Iron Man, Human Torch & Iceman, Hercules, Iron Fist, and more.

It is always exciting to read more about the teachings of Jesus, however, if you refuse to read any translation besides the KJV then some of the translations in this book will disturb you.

8.Fractured Fairy TalesFractured Fairy Tales
from Bantam
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
The 25 tales that comprise Fractured Fairy Tales are jejune in all three meanings: lacking in nutritive value, dull, and juvenile. Maybe the stories reflect that stage in the author's development (about 29 years old at the time). Any reputable publisher should have rejected such stuff -- unless one... more info
