Expert contributors from around the world and from every major denomination offer an unparalleled view of The Book of Common Prayer and its influence. The Oxford Guide to Common Prayer is more than simply a history: it describes how Anglican churches at all points of the compass have developed their own Prayer Books and adapted the time-honored Anglican liturgies to their diverse local cultures.

great opening to a unique twist
Format: Kindle
Different, in a good way. This unique twist is relevant and refreshing, and provides a fresh take on the man of steel.

A good start to a new Superman story
Format: Kindle
From this first issue, I like that Superman’s origin story is different from what we know. Although Kal’s parents are of the lower class, JorEl is still the one who seems to know about Krypton’s impending doom.
It caught me off guard that Lois isn’t a reporter but part of this Lazarus Military. This kinda makes sense because she’s a military brat and her father is a General.
This story is pretty cool so far. I don’t mind change as long as the story makes sense and the core of the characters are still intact.
So far I have, I have no idea what to expect, but it’s getting good. Can’t wait for the next issue. Btw, Superman’s new suit looks dope!

Absolutely the best Superman!
Format: Kindle
This is a great story, and re-imagining of Superman. I am so excited to read this awesome book, Superman has always held a special place in my heart, and I can't tell you how great this retelling is. I was intrigued when he was rebooted as part of the New 52, but for Absolute Superman... Let's just say that I am All In!!!

Absolutely super
Format: Kindle
Another great story set in the new Absolute Universe. I'm glad that we're getting new versions of the classic DC icons and not yet another rehashing of the same old origins. The differences in Kal-Els powers and his past are very interesting. I can't wait to see exactly what they are. This is the first DC work from Jason Aaron that I've ever read and I hope he writes this series for a good long time.
