Review: “Silverfin: A Young James Bond Adventure”

Review: “Silverfin: A Young James Bond Adventure”

Darcy Low | July 14, 2010July 27, 2024

“There’s something slithering in the dark waters around a Scottish castle. Something that must be kept secret, something very deadly. One man with a thirst for power will use it. Whatever the cost. One young boy stands in his way. His name is James. James Bond.”

Cue the music!!

(Only at participating stores. Check local store for details. Offer does not include state and local taxes. Void where prohibited.)

Classic Review: “Minority Report and Other Short Stories” by Philip K. Dick

Classic Review: “Minority Report and Other Short Stories” by Philip K. Dick

E Terra | November 29, 2004June 2, 2024 | 1 Comment

I drive a lot. So I’m always on the lookout for free or cheap-ass audio books of great SF. A few days ago I stumbled across Philip K. Dick’s Minority Report and Other Stories narrated by actor Keir Dullea, the perfect mind-escape from the four-hour drive back from Vegas over the holiday weekend. And what a ride.

Review: “I Am Number Four” by Pittacus Lore

Review: “I Am Number Four” by Pittacus Lore

Michael Hickerson | August 10, 2010July 27, 2024

“I Am Number Four” is a narrative driven story, full of twists, turns and danger for John and Henri. And while that keeps the pages turning, the story lacks any really fleshed out or interesting supporting characters for John.

Review: “Necronomicrap” by Tim Frayser

Review: “Necronomicrap” by Tim Frayser

Joe Murphy | February 13, 2005August 10, 2024

The chapbook Necronomicrap: A Guide To Your Horoooscope, by Tim Frayser, mixes astrological “facts” with obvious lampooning. For example, while you can use the book to learn the names of Saturn’s moons, I highly doubt you should share Frayser’s interpretation that the moons regulate “various aspects of human flatulence.”

Review: “WWW: Wake” by Robert J. Saywer

Review: “WWW: Wake” by Robert J. Saywer

Michael Hickerson | June 17, 2009June 7, 2024

Good science fiction speculates on things that are theoretically possible given some of the conditions and advances of our current level of technology. In many cases, the advances may be years or decades away from becoming reality, but in the case of Robert J. Sawyer’s new novel, “WWW: Wake,” part of his speculated future has become a reality far too quickly.

Review: “The Battle for Azeroth: Adventure, Alliance and Addiction”

Review: “The Battle for Azeroth: Adventure, Alliance and Addiction”

Tim Adamec | December 17, 2006June 21, 2024

Touted as a book of “Insights into the World of Warcraft“, The Battle for Azeroth: Adventure, Alliance and Addiction is more of a class guide and compendium of essays about the different aspects of Blizzard Entertainment’s smash hit game. Players and non-playing family and friends will likely find something of interest in this book.

Review: “Empire State” by Adam Christopher

Review: “Empire State” by Adam Christopher

Laith Preston | December 22, 2011June 2, 2024 | 2 Comments

Rocket powered superheros, prohibition era bootleggers, private eyes, mysterious men in masks; and more twists and turns than you can imagine. Welcome to Adam Christopher’s Empire State, a Superhero-Noir Science Fiction story set in a dark distorted reflection of New York City of the ’30s.
