The very last of the full series of the Nightside books. John Taylor must take one final case. And then one more. I was really digging this despite it going all Superman IV: The Quest for Peace. But the ultimate few chapters were kind of disappointing and the series became a letdown. Only three more series sets to complete the full Simon Green!
The Knights Who Say Ni…ghtside
The almost-kinda penultimate book in the Nightside series. John Taylor finds himself wielding Excalibur, and even though he’s not worthy, he has to stop the impending elf wars. He ends up having to track down King Arthur to restore him to greatness and lead the London Knights into battle to save the world. Green once again starts leaning a little heavier on his other series to get help.
Informational Reads on LifeSpan Development in Counseling
[A joint review of Adulthood by Evie Bentley and Counselling and the Life Course by Léonie Sugarman] These are by far two of the shortest books that I have had to read for school in a long time. Hooray! And they were quite straightforward and easy to get through as well. However, this may be due to the fact that I have previously taken a Lifespan Development course before, so a lot of the information I received was nothing new. More like a refresher. But […]
Blameless is the one who remains constant in the face of danger
Wow, another powerful story. After Jacques Lob’s death in 1990, prolific writer and translator Benjamin Legrand continued on with the Snowpiercer concept with the original artist, Jean-Marc Robette. We begin aboard Snowpiercer 2, the Icebreaker. It is said Snowpiercer 1 never knew of 2’s existence and the first has gained an almost mythological status amongst the inhabitants of the Icebreaker. It is their big threat, since they have lost all radio contact. It was said the braking tests were necessary in the event that 2 came […]
The Promised Land is Lost
I saw Joon-Ho Bong’s film Snowpiercer last summer and immediately thereafter purchased the graphic novel it was based on. Before I got around to reading it, a friend borrowed a stack of books and graphic novels and it was in the stack. Yesterday the stack came back home to roost and I pulled out 1:the Escape. As much as I admired and enjoyed the film, it was it’s own animal and I am glad that so much time transpired so I could see the GN […]
Can We Still Be Friends If I Tase You?
The problem with reading the second book in the Veronica Mars book series,Mr. Kiss and Tell, is that now it’s over and I just wanna hang out in Neptune with all of my literary friends. I felt a pang of regret as I closed the book because I wish I could’ve savored it more.But no,I just plowed through the two books this weekend without once thinking of the consequences. And here I am, satisfied by the book but left wishing there were at least […]
