The Last Boy and Girl in the World
Get even. Get revenge. Just don’t get caught.
Max Cobb is sick of being “Just Max”, the kind of guy whose resume boasts a measly 2.5 GPA and a deep love of heist films. So when an invitation appears in his locker to join the anonymous, untraceable, epic prank-pulling Chaos Club, Max jumps at the opportunity. Paperback | Kindle book

3.0 out of 5 starsAlmost a 4, but for questionable historical claims
By Hugh Sansom on July 2, 2008
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This is a joy to read or peruse. Visually beautiful. Very entertaining, even insightful. But, I have some serious reservations about some of the historical claims. The book attempts a sweeping historical perspective by making many grand historical claims. You'll find that many better dictionaries give a history of individual letters of the alphabet. And they don't mesh particularly well with some of the claims of Laurent Pflughaupt. Moreover, the persistence of certain kinds of claims by Pflughaupt suggests to me a certain religious/historical bent (or bias, perhaps).

That said, I'm no expert on the history, so feel free to disregard my gripes. One way or another, the book is a pleasure to read at length or just to browse.

4.0 out of 5 starsFlippin Gorgeous
By tierny on October 31, 2011
Format: Paperback
For that rare book consumer that appreciates depth as well as looks, this book is a gorgeous, gorgeous artifact all on its own. I picked mine up for a low pricetag that turns out to be practically a crime. For once, a book deserves it issue price.

The cover and title could be better: It gives no hint at what a trove is inside.

5.0 out of 5 starsTypography explained beautifully
By Nick Morgan on July 3, 2008
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This is a brilliant book on the history of letters and lettering. I could have done without the chakras, but everything else was to the point and fascinating. This is a learned and beautiful book.
