Hugo worthy writer denied?
With all the talk about Hugo worthy books and authors I was reminded of Barry Hughart. He blamed the end of his writing career on publishers being idiots and not knowing how to sell his books. I know many people who bring him up as the perfect example of what is wrong with the Hugo […]
I’ll say U.N.C.L.E.
I hate to give a bad review. So it pleases me more than I can say, that I don’t have to in this case. This movie was JUST PLAIN FUN. It took it’s self seriously enough to keep you concerned for the end game, it kept the camp of the original series (no I’m not […]

No, it’s six simple words: Mad Max. Decades after Mel Gibson went toe to toe with Tina Turner in Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome, we finally have a new installment of the […]
Daredevil superb television
I’ve spent the last day and a half, while not at work, binge watching the new Daredevil series on Netflix. What with one thing and another I’m only about half way through, but let me say WOW. Agents of Shield kind of turned me off, it’s typical early primetime fare, a little fluffy, a little […]
Butcher in fine form in ‘Skin Game’

If you aren’t familiar with the series this might not be the best place to start as this is book number 15.
