E-Book Prices, Getting Less Than What You Paid For
I read a lot (well over 100 books a year), and I don’t have a strong preference for medium one way or the other. If it has an awesome cover, or something I might want to have on my shelf, I’ll buy the paperback. If I just want to read the story then I’ll get…
Read MoreBooks of the Week!
Before we get in up to our elbows worth of books I want to give ya’ll a heads-up that starting tomorrow Time Heist will be FREE on Amazon through the end of the week. So if you’ve been holding off on getting yourself a copy, or you have a frugally inclined friend looking for a new…
Read MoreTime Heist Review
Thanks to Heroines of Fantasy for the review of Time Heist. Chris Gerrib has some great feedback! Also, thanks to Ted Cross for putting this review on my radar. If you haven’t picked up Ted’s The Immortality Game yet you’re only hurting yourself! http://heroinesoffantasy.blogspot.com/2015/01/review-time-heist.html Anthony
Read MoreBooks of the Week!
Oh, god…we’re off to a bad start. I’ve already lied to you. You came here all innocently expecting the Books of the Week, but what you’re actually getting are the Books of the Last Two Weeks. I know, I’m sorry. You’re getting way more than you bargained for. What can I say? We had some…
Read MoreShort Sci-Fi Movies Morning!
Here’s a little short Sci-Fi movie roundup for you. One of the things all these films have going for them is some fantastic visual and sound effects. Acting is typically “meh” and the story lines are a bit “whuuu?” but that’s what you get from a 3 minute movie. Enjoy. There’s a story to this…
Read MoreThe Dreaded One Star!
No, that’s not the little, skinnier cousin of the Death Star, though it can destroy worlds if you let it. The 1 star is as straight forward as it sounds, it’s a 1 star review and if you stay in the game long enough as a writer (or really, any creative type) you’re bound to…
Read MoreRedshirts Review
Today we’re gonna do a little John Scalzi tribute and review one of his newer books, Redshirts. Now, if you’re into science fiction and don’t know who John Scalzi is it’s probably because you’ve been living under a rock so let me go ahead and take a moment to welcome you to the twenty-first century,…
Read MoreInterstellar Review
There’s been a lot of hullaballoo about Interstellar in the past few months. The hard science fiction aficionados of the world (read: guys who like their science to be accurate) have had a collective boner/lady boner for this movie for quite sometime. We’ll get to why that is in just a few short paragraphs. Interstellar…
Read MorePacific Rim
Couple summers back I saw previews for Pacific Rim which coincided a bit too closely with the release of Transformers, which was definitely too close to Transmorphers (don’t know what that is? Netflix that shit. Pure cinematic gold) for my tastes. Enormous human driven mech’s fighting gargantuan monsters from a different dimension in the ocean?…
Read MoreAll You Need Is Kill Review
Awhile back a buddy of mine from work was telling me about this book he was reading. There were aliens, time travel, Japanese mecha, and you could stop right there cause you had me at aliens. And time travel. And pretty much it doesn’t take a lot to get me psyched. So I checked out…
