Travel journalist Andrew Eames was in the ancient Syrian city of Aleppo when he met an elderly lady who had known Agatha Christie. Fascinated by the exotic history of this quintessentially English crime writer, he decided to retrace the trip from London to Baghdad which she made in 1928 - a journey which was to change Agatha Christie completely and led to her other life as the wife of an archaeologist in the deserts of Syria and Iraq. Travelling from London to Baghdad by train on the eve of the Iraq war, through the troubled areas of the Balkans and the Middle East, Eames found stark contrasts to the old Orient Express route as well as some unexpected connections with the past.

Feels nice and looks great
Size: 80% Tenkeyless, Size: 80% Tenkeyless
I bought this wrist rest in like new condition for $6 and I will say it’s 100% worth MSRP at $15-20. The weight is nice, it doesn’t slip on my mousepad. It’s very comfortable to rest my palms and wrist on. The sizing pairs well with my 80% keyboard. It functions as it should. I use this at a stand up desk on an industrial shop floor to help put my wrist at a better angle and it works perfect.

Decent; does the job
Size: 100% Standard
Cushion feels very porous and thin. I suppose you can call it memory foam because it basically sunk where I usually rest my wrist and has not returned to its original shape (lol). The small rubber pads on the underside help a bit but slip resistance would probably be better if they covered a larger area. Overall, it's not bad for sub $20 full size kb wrist rest.

Is does the job, love it.
Size: 60% Compact
Is really comfy, it does the job, you can't go wrong with it. Just buy it if you have a 75% keyboard or less because is not long. For me is not a problem.

Nice wrist rest
Size: 100% Standard
Comfortable angle, solid enough to not move around but soft enough to be good for long term usage.

Excellent wrist rest, BUT not for me
I'm rating this wrist rest 5 stars despite the fact that it's not for me. The reason that it is not for me is simple: My palms get very sweaty, and this makes my palms stick to the wrist rest, making it hard to move my hands around. This is an inherent limitation of the fact that it is made out of wood, and drove me to the 17" x 4" x 0.75" foam wrist rest from Grifiti instead. If you don't have sweaty palms, however, this wrist rest is perfect. It is 4 inches deep instead of the typical 3.1 inches, it is the perfect height and tapered just so for maximum comfort, the wood (Golden Oak color) is beautiful, and the engraved logo is tasteful and non-intrusive.
