FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE – Ian Fleming
Of course I am familiar with the James Bond films, and while I own a number of the books, I hadn’t gotten around to reading any of them (still haven’t). When I saw this audio book available at my local library, I decided my commute to work would be a great time to finally experience Continue reading

THE MUNCHKIN BOOK – James Lowder, editor
If you are any kind of geek at all, you already know about the card game Munchkin and many of its variants. But what do you really know about the game, the creators and many of its bizarre rules?

PLAYING TYLER – T. L. Costa
**WARNING! — THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS!** This was an interesting read and a difficult book to rate and review. First off, this is YA.

TOMORROW’S HERITAGE – Juanita Coulson
THROWBACK THURSDAY: REVIEWING A REISSUE I haven’t read much by Juanita Coulson, but when I see her name I have two reactions … first, that she was one of the early authors for the LaserBooks series in the 1970’s, and that I met her and Buck at a convention in Minneapolis many, MANY years ago.

First off – I am NOT the intended audience for this book. This book, written by the devout wife of a pastor, is directed toward other women of faith and is a guide for how to be a virtuous woman. The author was aware that I was not the intended audience when she sent the Continue reading

STAR TREK: STARFLEET ACADEMY – graphic novel
I don’t think I was expecting too much with this graphic novel. It appears to be targeted to a younger reading audience – those who still watch the Cartoon Network as well as the Star Trek movies and I thought the story might be so simple as to be almost laughable. But publisher IDW and Continue reading

BLOOD WILL FOLLOW – Snorri Kristjansson
I seem to have a knack for requesting review copies of books that are in the middle or at the end of a series. This is often because publisher’s aren’t particularly good about letting the reviewer know it’s the middle of a series. Such is the case here. Blood Will Follow is book two in Continue reading
