A riveting journey  
Although Greenstein's book is somewhat ancient, it remains the most exhilarating exploration of black holes, quasars, pulsars and other phenomena I've ever read. If you want an easily digestible introduction to some of the most fascinating aspects of our universe, you cannot do better than to read Frozen Star.

Excelent source of understanding  
This book truly explains many physical concepts of the mysteries of our universe. It goes in depth explaining in detail pulsars, black holes, and starts, but brings these concepts to an understandable level. The examples presented give a full conceptual understanding of our universe. One can picture what is happening in a black hole through labeled drawings rather than complicated mathematical formulas. This book did a great job of explaining all the aspects of space-time geometery for which I was looking.
