by: Jim Butcher So. 300 pages into Dust of Dreams (Malazan #9) and this comes out. I’d forgotten – I’m glad I put all the new book release dates I care about in my calendar! Anyway, I took a 10 or or so detour through Dresdenland on my way through Malazan – like I could [...]

I first tried Rift near the end of the beta – a friend got me in. That same friend sent me a 7 day trial last week and I figured I’d give it another shot. My initial impression of it was that it was an insanely bland looking fantasy mmo. By “bland” I don’t mean [...]

by: George R. R. Martin There will be some spoilers. You have been warned. First off, let me say that this was not the best book ever. FOR ME. I’m sure plenty of people will love it. I think it works great as a piece of something larger but, for me, it did not work [...]

Let’s just get this out of the way first: I didn’t hate it. I don’t feel like I wasted $6. Yes, I saw it at the cheap theater. The normal ones are like $10.50 at night. Ugh. So, a better question would be – was it worth $10.50? The answer there is “maybe”. It really [...]

WordPress 3.2.1 made my dashboard even less functional and obnoxious. Wait, what? BOOK? Right. OK. This book was not awesome. It [...]

by: Steven Erikson There may be more spoilers here than in my other Malazan review/rambles because there’s a lot to talk about and some of it would just look silly were I to dance around things. Well. This was a strange one, for a number of reasons. First: The weird Kruppe narrations that open most [...]

So there’s some kind of… well, I don’t want to call it a leak because I can’t find a single goddam thing LEAKING… so we’ll call it an “emanation”. There’s some kind of a water emanation in our basement. I would think it was coming up from the floor but uh … there are no [...]

by: Steven Erikson Wow. You know Erikson always has to be killing people (especially out of nowhere) … but some of them still hurt. Especially because I think this one – the last one (one of the “big” ones) – does not come with the resurrection clause that has brought so many others back on [...]
