Review: “Superman: The Never-Ending Battle (Justice League of America)” by Roger Stern

Review: “Superman: The Never-Ending Battle (Justice League of America)” by Roger Stern

David Moldawer | September 20, 2005June 4, 2024

This is another installment in the “Justice League of America” novelizations, this one by Roger Stern. Stern is a long-time DC writer who also did the novelization of the controversial death of Superman arc back in the early 90s, The Death and Life of Superman, a book I actually read on my own out of sheer curiosity.

Review: “The Last Dragon” by Jane Yolen & Rebecca Guay

Review: “The Last Dragon” by Jane Yolen & Rebecca Guay

Laith Preston | December 1, 2011June 9, 2024 | 3 Comments

Wow, I really don’t know where to start with this review. Do I begin with the beautiful art of Rebecca Guay, or wax poetic on the enthralling story crafted by Jane Yolen?

Review: “The Sky People” by S.M. Stirling

Review: “The Sky People” by S.M. Stirling

Brian Brown | January 25, 2007May 30, 2024 | 1 Comment

The Sky People is a fun read that harkens back to another time in science fiction writing. It has some minor quibbles but nothing that would get in the way of enjoying this rousing tale. So fire up the rockets and head to your local bookstore and pick up this gem.

Review: “Inkspell” by Cornelia Funke

Review: “Inkspell” by Cornelia Funke

Darcy Low | February 16, 2008July 4, 2024 | 2 Comments

The book is filled with drawing from the person that wrote the book!! Cornella Funke and really helps you to picture all the people in it. There is also two things in this book that wasn’t in the first one, she put in a hand drawn map!! And there is a dictionary, and a place that tells all about the characters. So if you didn’t read the first book, that’s cool. You can read this and you will be all caught up!

Review: “Morevi: The Chronicles of Rafe and Askana”

Review: “Morevi: The Chronicles of Rafe and Askana”

Joe Murphy | June 11, 2003May 31, 2024

The idea of reading a book written by two people who had never even met was too cool to pass up. And I also felt like I should be supporting Bookcrazy and The Dragonpage by actually buying their authors’ books. So I sent Amazon.com my $23.95 (dear Lord, for a PAPERBACK! BTW, it is now available for $19.95). About six weeks later, Morevi: The Chronicles of Rafe and Askana was sitting in my doorstep, wrapped in a plain brown package.

It was worth every fucking cent.

This is a good book. Not a good “first novel”. A good novel. Tee, Lisa, you should be very proud of yourselves.

Review: “7th Sigma” by Steven Gould

Review: “7th Sigma” by Steven Gould

Web Genii | August 17, 2011May 31, 2024 | 2 Comments

I have to admit that I didn’t buy 7th Sigma because of the excerpt called “Bugs in the Arroyo” that you can find for free on the Tor website. I bought it because of Summer’s love for Steven Gould’s Jumper. I’ve never read Jumper, but Summer’s enthusiasm for Gould is contagious.

Review: “Scream Queen” by Edo van Belkom

Review: “Scream Queen” by Edo van Belkom

Joe Murphy | January 30, 2005May 30, 2024

So, why am I writing about a card game I played weeks back when I should be informing you about the latest novel sitting on top of my all-to-high reading stack?

When you use cheesy horror tropes to make a card game that spoofs horror stories, you get a fun and exciting game, when you use cheesy horror tropes to make a paperback novel that seriously attempts to be scary, you get a shitty paperback novel, like Scream Queen.

Review: Bloom County: The Complete Library, Vol 1

The book has comic strips from Mr Breathed very first comics that he did in his college paper, up to 1982. His first drawings were funny, but doesn’t look at all like they do later on. But you can still see his humor and a few of his characters that he stuck with.
