Oh Hi, James Coburn.

What are they, why are they here, what purpose do they serve ? I summarily review the second volume of Apocalypse Mania. (Read the rest of the review here.)

Constant Reader liked this one. Mostly. Until that stuff at the end.

As you are well aware by now, Uncle Stevie and I have a long, ongoing, somewhat unhealthy relationship. He writes, I read. No matter the length or the quality (hello, cocaine years), I was — and still am — there for him. I’ve read pretty much everything, and lots of times I’ve read stuff more than once. His short story collections? Automatic re-reads. Anything to do with The Dark Tower? I’m all over it. I’ll read it until I get every single cross-reference. And now, […]

It’s not really a recommend or a keeper, but I am […]

A very funny caper comedy where the caper comes second

August 10, 2015 by TylerDFC 2 Comments

Pel Dalton spends his time by day as a supervisor of IT staff at a library, er, make that Learning Center, at a large University in England. By night he squabbles incessantly with this German girlfriend, Ursula, and tries to raise the couple’s 2 young boys. Pel does just enough to get by and believes half-assing any task is about a quarter ass too much. He’s mostly been bluffing his way through his job so when Pel’s boss, TSR, suddenly vanishes and Pel steps in […]
