AuthorHerman Melville
ISBN0451526872

Unbelievably, Melville had a hard time making a living from his writing.

[That was sarcasm.]

His style is overly archaic. I read a fair amount of classic literature, but this is just ridiculous. In the mid to late 19th century, were people still saying "Hark!"? And "Blah, blah,...

A Girl’s Guide to Guns and Monsters

The main idea behind this anthology is strong women with the ability to find the weapon most necessary at the time and the courage to use it. Not all of the stories have guns—in fact, most don’t—and the monsters come from a wide field, although at first...
AuthorRichard Matheson
Although Rod Serling, who created the classic television series that ran from 1959 to 1965, is the writer most associated with The Twilight Zone, he was not, of course, the only one. Serling was a serious admirer of horror, fantasy, and science fiction, and he scoured every magazine and collection available...

Return of the Jedi
AuthorJoan D. Vinge
ISBN0590329294
Star Wars Return of the Jedi is a fun a read for the early 80’s - 90’s kid.

As a young child in the early 90’s I picked this book up several times, primarily to enjoy the images of the hero’s I admired, I constantly loved to envision myself in the fantasy as Luke Skywalker or Han Solo battling...
AuthorMary Leader
Triad by Mary Leader is a Hodder & Stoughton Ltd publication.

I’m going to give a very brief review for this book since it is a rare novel and very hard to find, and if you do find a copy online, it’s going to cost you.

As many of you know, I collect vintage paperbacks and the 'Gothic...

Double Helix
AuthorSigmund Brouwer
ISBN0849939380
Even though this book is somewhere around twenty years old, I think it holds up well [overall]. In some respects, it is probably pretty mild. I think Michael Crichton even tried to go one further in his novel Next in which he writes a bitter diatribe about the horrors of genetic manipulation without any...

Romancing the Stone
AuthorCatherine Lanigan
ISBN0380872625
Romancing the Stone was one of my favorite childhood movies. This book is a novelization of the screenplay, not an original book that the movie is based off of.

There are lots of similarities with plot, dialogue, and characters. Naturally I kept picturing the actors from the movie playing their...
